SwiftLint Releases

Latest: 0.65.1: Fresh Folded Fixtures · 21 Aug 2026 - Breaking Configuration.IndentationStyle moved to SwiftLintCore.IndentationStyle . Rules can now read the global indentation setting via CurrentRule.configuration . GandaLF2006 Remove the deprecated allow_multiline_func option from the opening_brace rule. Use ignore_multiline_function_signatures instead. Brett-Best Enhancements Speed up the collection_alignment rule, which read the whole file's source lines once per element of a dictionary literal. Brett-Best Compare the two operands of a comparison by walking their token streams in the identical_operands rule instead of rendering both operands to strings, so differing operands stop at the first mismatching token. Brett-Best Add #examples and #corrections macros that expand lists and dictionaries of code strings into Example s, reducing boilerplate when defining a rule's triggering/non-triggering examples and corrections. Adopt them across the built-in rules. ZevEisenberg Add allow_compact_empty_blocks option to the no_empty_block rule to allow empty blocks written compactly as {} while still flagging empty blocks with any whitespace or newlines between the braces. arimu1 #6839 Bug Fixes Add an opt-in allow_explicit_unsafe_unowned option to let the unowned_variable_capture rule accept explicit unowned(unsafe) captures. Yurii Bakurov #6817 Fix line_length with ignores_urls enabled incorrectly ignoring property accesses whose member names are valid top-level domains. Arthur Liu #6811 Fix baseline writing to store file locations as paths relative to the current working directory, restoring baseline portability and avoiding absolute file:// paths in generated baseline files. SimplyDanny #6812 Fix correction behavior of closure_spacing rule when a closure contains only trivia (e.g. comments). SimplyDanny #6798 #6799 Fix closure_end_indentation moving closing braces to column 1 in files with CRLF line endings when running swiftlint --fix . sjh9714 #6598 0.65.0: Fresh Folded Fixtures Breaking SwiftLint now requires Swift 6.1 or higher for development (to run tests). The executable can still be built with a Swift 6 compiler. The Swift Package Manager plugins continue to work with all versions down to Swift 5.9. SimplyDanny Enhancements SwiftLint now builds with Bazel versions 7 to 9. SimplyDanny Using Bazel With bzlmod: // Pending BCR update bazel_dep(name = "swiftlint", version = "0.65.1", repo_name = "SwiftLint") Without bzlmod, put this in your WORKSPACE : WORKSPACE load ( "@bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl" , "http_archive" ) http_archive ( name = "build_bazel_rules_apple" , sha256 = "9e26307516c4d5f2ad4aee90ac01eb8cd31f9b8d6ea93619fc64b3cbc81b0944" , url = "https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_apple/releases/download/2.2.0/rules_apple.2.2.0.tar.gz" , ) load ( "@build_bazel_rules_apple//apple:repositories.bzl" , "apple_rules_dependencies" , ) apple_rules_dependencies () load ( "@build_bazel_rules_swift//swift:repositories.bzl" , "swift_rules_dependencies" , ) swift_rules_dependencies () load ( "@build_bazel_rules_swift//swift:extras.bzl" , "swift_rules_extra_dependencies" , ) swift_rules_extra_dependencies () http_archive ( name = "SwiftLint" , sha256 = "ba76492a67197543419d8a20c0f1d371260e76609acf0a411f5a8af8b15d19ab" , url = "https://github.com/realm/SwiftLint/releases/download/0.65.1/bazel.tar.gz" , ) load ( "@SwiftLint//bazel:repos.bzl" , "swiftlint_repos" ) swiftlint_repos () load ( "@SwiftLint//bazel:deps.bzl" , "swiftlint_deps" ) swiftlint_deps () Then you can run SwiftLint in the current directory with this command: bazel run @SwiftLint//:swiftlint -- --help
