DuckDB Swift

DuckDB Swift is the native Swift API for DuckDB. It employs a modern Swift based API for clients across Apple, Linux and Windows platforms.

DuckDB

DuckDB is a high-performance analytical database system. It is designed to be fast, reliable and easy to use. DuckDB provides a rich SQL dialect, with support far beyond basic SQL. DuckDB supports arbitrary and nested correlated subqueries, window functions, collations, complex types (arrays, structs), and more. For more information on the goals of DuckDB, please refer to the Why DuckDB page on our website.

Installation

To use DuckDB in your Swift based project:

  1. Add DuckDB to your Swift.package dependencies:

    .package(url: "https://github.com/duckdb/duckdb-swift", .upToNextMajor(from: .init(1, 0, 0))),
  2. Add DuckDB as a dependency to your target:

    .target(name: "TargetName", dependencies: [
      .product(name: "DuckDB", package: "duckdb-swift"),
    ...
    ]),

Documentation and Playgrounds

The DuckDB Swift API is fully documented using DocC and the documentation can be generated from within Xcode via Product > Build Documentation.

You can also explore an Xcode Playground that demonstrates getting up and running with DuckDB and visualizing data using SwiftUI. To access the playground, clone this repository, open the DuckDB.xcworkspace file, and navigate to the DuckDBPlayground from within Xcode's project explorer panel.
