I'm trying to write Swift code that uploads blobs with Azure Blob Storage. I see example code but I can't get it to work. It seems like the example code is from a past version of the Swift SDK. Does the current one support the Storage API? https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-ios On that readme page it mentions 3 component modules: AzureCore, AzureCommunication, and AzureCommunicationChat. But in some of the example code, you see import AzureStorageBlob . That import isn't working for me though, when I include the Swift Package in my project using Xcode 12.

Hi Rob: The AzureStorageBlob library, which is used by that example code, is still in active development and we haven't yet published a release. If you'd like to give it a try (in its development state, of course), you can clone the Git repository and import the AzureCore and AzureStorageBlob libraries. Keep in mind, this code is still in a very early state and should not be used for production applications.

Okay, I don't mind cloning the repo and using beta software, but it looks like I'll also need to edit the code. I don't think I can import AzureStorageBlob because it's not even listed in the Package.swift. I may give it a shot - maybe a minor change to just that file with be enough.

Since the library is still in development, it's not yet part of the Package.swift. To try it out, clone the repo and then copy the source files from the AzureStorageBlob/Source directory into your app's directory somewhere. Then either add them directly to your existing Xcode project, or add a new Xcode project to your workspace and add the source files to that project. The existing AzureStorageBlob.xcodeproj project is used by our library developers doing local development, so unfortunately it's not terribly reusable for customers.

I wasn't sure whether I should mark it. The answer is sort of "no, but in the future it will be better". I can accept this as an answer about the temporary status.
