Consider making TemporaryDirectory public?

Yeah that one. You can import it if you depend on the whole of SwiftPM, but that's why I say I wouldn't recommend it since it imports a lot of other stuff, and Apple themselves say you shouldn't depend on libUtility.

Thanks for the report, I consider this an area I may in future make a separate library for, in the mean time feel free to vendor the file!

Hi, TemporaryDirectory was public, but I removed it: cd30e8.

I did this because I didn't consider it within the responsibility boundary of this library. An entire library could be dedicated to temporary directories (and files) and thus would have better API and a more thorough implementation.

A good example of a better implementation is SwiftPM’s Utility library. Not that I think anyone should use that, but it's better for this particular area.

Thanks.

That makes sense thanks 👍

For SwiftPM, you refer to this file? TemporaryFile.swift

we can close this then 😉

Cheers
