swift_package_pin
Synthetic locked Swift package identity.
Description
swift_package_pin is emitted by swift_package_dependencies. It makes the external package graph visible through the same typed graph and query surfaces as first-party targets. Users should not declare it directly.
Each pin records the package identity, source location, locked state, checkout location, and dependencies on other pins. Source-control packages retain versions, revisions, and branches. Registry packages also retain their checksum. Local packages use a local identity suffix.
Attributes
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
identity | string | yes | Canonical lowercase Swift package identity |
package_name | string | no | Package display name from the resolved graph |
source_kind | string | no | remoteSourceControl, registry, or localSourceControl |
location | string | no | Registry, source-control, or local package location |
version | string | no | Locked semantic version |
revision | string | no | Locked source-control revision |

Dependency edges
| Edge | Accepts | Description |
|---|---|---|
deps | swift_package_pin | Locked transitive package dependencies |
Providers
The target emits swift_package_pin. Its provider repeats the lock identity and lists the identities of its direct package dependencies.
Capabilities
| Capability | Output groups |
|---|---|
build | none |
The target has no build action. Compilation is owned by the corresponding swift_package_dependencies target.
Upstream contract
The fields follow Swift Package Manager's ResolvedPackagesStore model.
