Only include some libraries from a Swift Package instead of all

[ActuallyTaylor]

Hello! I am working on upgrading a macOS app to use the Tuist build system. I am running into some issues with the packages I am using. Some of them include a significant number of libraries in one Swift Package. I only need to use one of these however...

How would I go about excluding or including a subset of libraries from one swift packages?

Hey 👋

We should strip unused libraries based on the internal downstream dependencies. If Package has products ProductA and ProductB and App depends only on ProductA, the ProductB should be automatically stripped from the generated project.

If that's not the case, would you mind filing an issue with a reproducible sample instead and we can look into fixing it? 🙏

Thank you for letting me know! It is good to know that they will be automatically stripped.

I thought they would be because I was using the graph feature of Tuist and found that google libraries were all included instead of only the ones I use. Could this just be an issue with the graphing?

(I will generate graph images today showing the problem)

Very likely. I think the logic that strips some of the targets only runs when generating the project, not visualizing it. We could probably extend the graph command so that users can express things like "I want to visualize the project that you'll generate", or "I want to visualize the project with binaries from the cache".

Would you mind filing an issue?

I will definitely file an issue!
