Adding Swift Build System

• Open Sublime Text 3
• Go To Preferences > Browse Packages...
• Add a file named Swift.sublime-build inside Packages directory.
• Copy the following script in Swift.sublime-build file.

{
 	"shell_cmd": "xcrun swift \"$file\"",
 	"file_regex": "^(..[^:]*):([0-9]+):?([0-9]+)?:? (.*)$",
 	"working_dir": "${file_path}",
 	"selector": "source.swift",
}

• Go to Preferences > Key Bindings-User and add the following script to it.

{
	"keys": ["super+b"], 
	"command": "build",
	"context": [
		{ "key": "selector", "operator": "equal", "operand": "source.swift" }
	], 
	"args": {
		"build_system": "Packages/Swift.sublime-build",
		"variant": "Build"
	}
}

You are ready to run Swift scripts from ST3 now.

Testing the Swift Build System

• Create a file A.swift containing a single line println("Hello, Swift!").
• Press command + b and you'll be able to see the output.
• If you are unable to see the output, go to Tools > Build Systems and change it from Automatic to Swift, and you should be able to run Swift in ST3.
