SwiftPM - More layout options for sources/tests folders

Development Package Manager
1

Hi swift community,

The current SwiftPM supports very limited set of source directory layouts.

Below are some of the layouts, along with their current SwiftPM support,
that I think should be supported.

layout-1
├── Package.swift
└── Sources
    └── ModuleA
        ├── Bar.swift
        ├── Foo.swift
        └── Tests
            └── ModuleATests.swift

*Current Status:* Building - Tests Failing

layout-2
├── Foo.swift
├── Package.swift
└── Tests
    └── FooTests.swift

*Current Status: *Building - Tests Failing

layout-3
├── Package.swift
├── Sources
│ ├── Foo.swift
│ └── ModuleA
│ ├── Bar.swift
│ └── Tests
│ └── BarTests.swift
└── Tests
    └── FooTests.swift

*Current Status: *Build Failing - Invalid Layout

layout-4
├── Package.swift
├── Sources
│ ├── Foo.swift
│ ├── ModuleA
│ │ └── Bar.swift
│ └── Tests
│ └── FooTests.swift
└── Tests
    └── ModuleA
        └── BarTests.swift

*Current Status: *Build Failing - Invalid Layout

Source layout shouldn't matter at all. I *think* the eventual plan is for SwiftPM to allow you to specify source locations, though not 100%.

This issue is one of the big ones for why Drew and I wrote our own build tool (based on llbuild).

I actually have reversed my opinion on this and have a proposal in the works called “No More Magic” which is the best of both worlds (IMO), ie. the benefits of convention based layouts with the power of configuration.
