1//! # tauri-plugin-widgets
2//!
3//! A Tauri v2 plugin for building native widgets on Android, iOS, macOS,
4//! Windows, and Linux from a single JSON UI configuration.
5//!
6//! Empty placeholders for Adaptive Cards are avoided when the `rasterize`
7//! feature is enabled (chart/canvas/gauge/shape/zstack/gradients → PNG).
8//!
9//! ## Overview
10//!
11//! - **Widget Config API** — send a declarative [`WidgetConfig`](models::WidgetConfig)
12//! describing layouts and elements. The native widget renders it using
13//! SwiftUI (Apple), RemoteViews (Android), or HTML/CSS (desktop).
14//!
15//! - **Data API** — key-value storage shared with native widget extensions
16//! via the App Group shared container (Apple), SharedPreferences (Android),
17//! or JSON files (desktop).
18//!
19//! - **Desktop widget windows** — frameless, transparent Tauri webview windows
20//! that render the same JSON config as HTML/CSS.
21//!
22//! ## Architecture
23//!
24//! The plugin acts as a **library**, not a builder. It does NOT compile or
25//! inject widget extensions at runtime. Instead, it provides:
26//!
27//! 1. **Rust side** — commands for data storage and WidgetKit reload
28//! 2. **Swift Package** (`swift/TauriWidgets`) — public SwiftUI views and
29//! models that developers import into their own Widget Extension target
30//! 3. **Templates** (`templates/`) — ready-to-use scripts and Swift files
31//!
32//! This follows Apple's guidelines: the extension is built by Xcode, signed
33//! with the developer's certificate, and included in the app bundle at
34//! compile time.
35//!
36//! ## Quick Start (Rust)
37//!
38//! ```no_run
39//! tauri::Builder::default()
40//! .plugin(tauri_plugin_widgets::init());
41//! ```
42//!
43//! ## iOS Setup
44//!
45//! 1. Open `gen/apple/*.xcodeproj` in Xcode
46//! 2. File → New → Target → Widget Extension
47//! 3. Add `swift/` as a Local Swift Package dependency
48//! 4. Add `TauriWidgets` library to the Widget Extension target
49//! 5. Enable **App Groups** in both targets (App + Widget Extension)
50//! 6. Use the template from `templates/ios-widget/MyWidget.swift`
51//!
52//! ## macOS Setup ("Satellite Project")
53//!
54//! Tauri for macOS does not generate an `.xcodeproj`, so the widget
55//! extension must be built as a separate Xcode project:
56//!
57//! 1. Create `src-tauri/widget-extension/` with an Xcode project
58//! containing a Widget Extension target
59//! 2. Add `swift/` as a Local Swift Package dependency
60//! 3. Enable **App Groups** in both the main app entitlements and
61//! the widget extension entitlements
62//! 4. `build-widget.sh` runs via `beforeBundleCommand` (builds + signs `.appex`)
63//! 5. `bundle.macOS.files` copies the `.appex` into `Contents/PlugIns/`
64//! during a normal `tauri build` (Tauri nested-codesigns PlugIns)
65//! 6. Set `plugins.widgets.transport` (`appGroup` with Team ID, or
66//! `widgetContainer` for ad-hoc) and `plugins.widgets.appGroup`
67//!
68//! ## Rust API
69//!
70//! Build a config with typed helpers (compile-checked, not executed here):
71//!
72//! ```
73//! use tauri_plugin_widgets::models::{text, vstack, WidgetConfig};
74//!
75//! let _cfg = WidgetConfig::small(vstack(vec![
76//! text("72°").font_size(36.0).into(),
77//! ]));
78//! ```
79//!
80//! Then call [`WidgetExt::widget`] on an `AppHandle` to `set_widget_config` /
81//! `reload_all_timelines` (requires a running Tauri app).
