Hi, as I was going through understanding templates and Appwrite functions, I noticed a couple of things in the starter function that is already Implemented

• I was getting the following build error at my end

• This went away after changing the location of index.swift like mentioned in the below screenShot.

Do let me know if I'm not building it correctly in this case. I'm on Xcode-15.

I don't think you can build Appwrite functions locally :) They're a file depended upon by the Appwrite Functions runtimes

Hey, just wanted to ask that between these two approaches of saving the variables (vonage secret keys, whatsApp number etc).
Should I go with .env file or .plist file for storing them?

First I'll go with .env file but wanted to clear this doubt.

Hi, I’m done with the Implementation of this function

Here is the progress of what I’ve done

• Created a Swift Package named ”whatsApp-with-vonage”
• Completed the implementation of all the things that I understood in the Node’s implementation of the function
• Used Swift-JWT package.
• The code is pushed in my forked repository

Things remaining

• Testing at my end

Also it would be very helpful if you could checkout the code I pushed and tell me things that can be improved.

Hi, I saw that Swift-runtime is not available in cloud.
Can you please guide me how to test it? Testing is somewhere that I got stuck.

If it goes well then I may've completed this feature implementation.

You can self-host and add deploy manually to test:

Hi, I've successfully self-hosted Appwrite locally. Will update how the functions goes after I deploy it.

I’m having a little trouble with Add deploy procedure.

• So first I’ve to package the whole swift WhatsApp with voyage function in a tar GZ file
• Then I’ve to go to my Appwrite console that is locally hosted and upload this archived file
  I’m not sure where I’ve to upload my archived function file in the console.
• Also can I use CLI or is it only for cloud functions?

Edit -> Found this article (https://dev.to/appwrite/clean-your-storage-using-appwrites-swift-cloud-functions-1h4f). First will go through this then get back here if still stuck

Thanks for the update. Even after the documentation if you have any questions, you can ask us on Discord

First I'll go with .env file but wanted to clear this doubt.

So they are passed in as environment variables through the function :)

You should be using the CLI, but it would be even better if you setup GitHub integration instead :P

Hi, so I manually deployed my function on self hosted Appwrite but I faced errors like shown in screenshot attached

Now most of them are syntactical but I want to ask

that since Xcode cannot infer the RuntimeContext/RuntimeOutput types that are mentioned in this function-Development guide -> https://appwrite.io/docs/products/functions/development#response

So can you tell in which environment should I like code the function in? Or like how do I set up this environment?

I also faced some JWT Authorisation errors but first I want to solve the above facing issues.

Hi, I'm facing this error while Building a function with runtime Swift-5.8. This is according to this documentation regarding development for Swift Runtime -> https://appwrite.io/docs/products/functions/development#request

from templates.

So I was able to deploy the function. and I got this error no matter what I execute regardless of request method -> "An internal curl error has occurred within the executor! Error Msg: Connection reset by peer\nError Code: 500"
Currently debugging this but if you know then do help here.

from templates.

Currently I'm trying my router's ip instead of localhost to see if it works or not.
