I'm currently working on Swift Package Manager project and I need to use images (myImage) I put in my custom XCAssets (CoreUI.xcassets). I have included my XCAssets in the SPM resources like this.

targets: [
    .target(
        name: "MyCoreUI",
        dependencies: [],
        resources: [Resource.process("Resources/CoreUI.xcassets")]),
    .testTarget(
        name: "MyCoreUITests",
        dependencies: ["MyCoreUI"]),
]

I accessed my image like this:

UIImage(named: "dropdown_down", in: Bundle.module, compatibleWith: nil)

But my image still failed to load without any warning. Could anyone help me with this issue? Thank you in advance!

I faced the same issue when I was working on my project. Solved the problem by using extensions. I saved all the XCAssets inside my CoreUI package. Now I can import CoreUI inside the main project and get the images. Add this code inside CoreUI package and add image names as static properties.

public extension UIImage {

    convenience init?(name: String) {
        self.init(named: name, in: .module, compatibleWith: nil)
    }

    static let home = UIImage(name: "Home")

}

Usage:

import CoreUI

yourImageView.image = UIImage.home

I was facing the same issue while accessing the image in the swift package manager. I fixed that issue by taking care of the following points.

  1. As per apple developer We don't need to process XIB, Storyboard, Assets Catalog, Core Data files .xcdatamodel and .lproj. So we don't need any special configuration on .package file.

  2. I kept a root folder inside the Sources/MyPackage. Please check my directory structure as shown in the attachment.

  3. My Media.xcassets catalog have one image icon named ic_patient. I am able to access that with the following SwiftUI code:

    Image("ic_patient", bundle: Bundle.module)

  4. It's working fine.
