- if foo?.count == 0 {
+ if foo?.isEmpty == true {
NOTE: In rare cases, the isEmpty rule may insert an isEmpty call for
a type that doesn't implement that property, breaking the program. For this
reason, the rule is disabled by default, and must be manually enabled via the
--enable isEmpty option.
leadingDelimiters
Move leading delimiters to the end of the previous line.
Examples
- guard let foo = maybeFoo // first
- , let bar = maybeBar else { ... }
+ guard let foo = maybeFoo, // first

opaqueGenericParameters
Use opaque generic parameters (some Protocol) instead of generic parameters
with constraints (T where T: Protocol, etc) where equivalent. Also supports
primary associated types for common standard library types, so definitions like

+ func handle(_ value: some Fooable & Barable) {
print(value)
}
- func handle<T: Collection>(_ value: T) where T.Element == Foo {
+ func handle(_ value: some Collection<Foo>) {

}
redundantFileprivate
Prefer private over fileprivate where equivalent.
Examples
- fileprivate let someConstant = "someConstant"
+ private let someConstant = "someConstant"
In Swift 4 and above, fileprivate can also be replaced with private for
members that are only accessed from extensions in the same file:
class Foo {

}
extension Foo {
func bar() {
print(self.foo)

}
redundantGet
Remove unneeded get clause inside computed properties.

bar = "bar"
}
}
redundantLet
Remove redundant let/var from ignored variables.
Examples
- let _ = foo()
+ _ = foo()
redundantLetError
Remove redundant let error from catch clause.
Examples
- do { ... } catch let error { log(error) }
+ do { ... } catch { log(error) }
redundantNilInit
Remove redundant nil default value (Optional vars are nil by default).
Examples
- var foo: Int? = nil
+ var foo: Int?
// doesn't apply to `let` properties
let foo: Int? = nil
// doesn't affect non-nil initialization
var foo: Int? = 0
redundantObjc
Remove redundant @objc annotations.
Examples
- @objc @IBOutlet var label: UILabel!
+ @IBOutlet var label: UILabel!
- @IBAction @objc func goBack() {}
+ @IBAction func goBack() {}
- @objc @NSManaged private var foo: String?
+ @NSManaged private var foo: String?
redundantOptionalBinding
Remove redundant identifiers in optional binding conditions.
Examples
- if let foo = foo {
+ if let foo {
print(foo)
}
- guard let self = self else {
+ guard let self else {
return
}
redundantParens
Remove redundant parentheses.
Examples
- if (foo == true) {}
+ if foo == true {}
- while (i < bar.count) {}
+ while i < bar.count {}
- queue.async() { ... }
+ queue.async { ... }

redundantPattern
Remove redundant pattern matching parameter syntax.
Examples
- if case .foo(_, _) = bar {}
+ if case .foo = bar {}
- let (_, _) = bar
+ let _ = bar
redundantRawValues
Remove redundant raw string values for enum cases.
Examples
enum Foo: String {
- case bar = "bar"
case baz = "quux"
}
enum Foo: String {
+ case bar
case baz = "quux"
}
redundantReturn
Remove unneeded return keyword.
Examples
- array.filter { return $0.foo == bar }
+ array.filter { $0.foo == bar }
// Swift 5.1+ (SE-0255)
var foo: String {
- return "foo"
+ "foo"
}
// Swift 5.9+ (SE-0380)
func foo(_ condition: Bool) -> String {
if condition {
- return "foo"
+ "foo"
} else {
- return "bar"
+ "bar"
}
}
redundantSelf
Insert/remove explicit self where applicable.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--self |
Explicit self: "insert", "remove" (default) or "init-only" |
--selfrequired |
Comma-delimited list of functions with @autoclosure arguments |
Examples
func foobar(foo: Int, bar: Int) {
self.foo = foo
self.bar = bar
- self.baz = 42
}
func foobar(foo: Int, bar: Int) {
self.foo = foo
self.bar = bar
+ baz = 42
}
In the rare case of functions with @autoclosure arguments, self may be
required at the call site, but SwiftFormat is unable to detect this
automatically. You can use the --selfrequired command-line option to specify
a list of such methods, and the redundantSelf rule will then ignore them.
An example of such a method is the expect() function in the Nimble unit
testing framework (https://github.com/Quick/Nimble), which is common enough that
SwiftFormat excludes it by default.
There is also an option to always use explicit self but only inside init,
by using --self init-only:
init(foo: Int, bar: Int) {
self.foo = foo
self.bar = bar
- baz = 42
}
init(foo: Int, bar: Int) {
self.foo = foo
self.bar = bar
+ self.baz = 42
}
redundantStaticSelf
Remove explicit Self where applicable.
redundantType
Remove redundant type from variable declarations.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--redundanttype |
"inferred", "explicit", or "infer-locals-only" (default) |
Examples
// inferred
- let view: UIView = UIView()
+ let view = UIView()
// explicit
- let view: UIView = UIView()
+ let view: UIView = .init()
// infer-locals-only
class Foo {
- let view: UIView = UIView()
+ let view: UIView = .init()
func method() {
- let view: UIView = UIView()
+ let view = UIView()
}
}
// Swift 5.9+, inferred (SE-0380)
- let foo: Foo = if condition {
+ let foo = if condition {
Foo("foo")
} else {
Foo("bar")
}
// Swift 5.9+, explicit (SE-0380)
let foo: Foo = if condition {
- Foo("foo")
+ .init("foo")
} else {
- Foo("bar")
+ .init("foo")
}
redundantVoidReturnType
Remove explicit Void return type.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--closurevoid |
Closure void returns: "remove" (default) or "preserve" |
Examples
- func foo() -> Void {
// returns nothing
}
+ func foo() {
// returns nothing
}
semicolons
Remove semicolons.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--semicolons |
Allow semicolons: "never" or "inline" (default) |
Examples
- let foo = 5;
+ let foo = 5

// semicolon is not removed if it would affect the behavior of the code
return;
goto(fail)

- case upsellA(
- fooConfiguration: Foo,
- barConfiguration: Bar)
+ case barFeature
+ case fooFeature

}
enum FeatureFlags {
