Restkit in Swift Project - ios

I have imported the RestKit to my swift project. But I'am not able to import the Restkit.h file in my swift file. Can anyone please tell me the steps to follow so that I can import the Restkit.h file to my swift file? Is RestKit available in swift language?

Sure you can use.
Create bridging header file inside your project. Name it as [your-project-name]-Bridging-Header.h.
Import RestKit.h header into your bridging header file that you created previous one to integrate with this file. https://github.com/RestKit/RestKit/blob/development/Code/RestKit.h
[your-project-name]-Bridging-Header.h
#import "RestKit.h"
Don't forget to copy RestKit project folder into your project folder.

You will need to add the RestKit framework to your Bridging Header file so that your Swift file can use it. If you don't have a Bridging Header file, you can create one and name it {Your_Product_Module_Name}-Bridging-Header.h. The Product Module Name is in your target's Build Settings.

how can I access my swift project files from pod file which is in objective c?

I am using firebase chat SDK which is in objective c and now I need to access swift files in this SDK. Please help me out.
First create the bridging header for your project by:
Adding the new .h file(header file) to your project and name it as
yourProjectname-Bridging-Header.h
2.Then in the build settings of your project add the path of the bridging header.
$(PROJECT_DIR)/$(PROJECT_NAME)/$(PROJECT_NAME)-Bridging-Header.h
In your bridging header file
# import "frameworkname.h" // your framework's header file
Try to run the code now.
Basically you need to create an header (.h) file that will expose the swift class you chose to expose to objective-c code
There are certain things to consider when doing so and they are all listed in this short article
Add "TargetName-Swift.h" where TargetName is the name of your project, where you want to acess the swift files

using Swift code in Objective-C project by creating bridge files in iOS

while merging swift code to objective c existing projective c project am not able to import the header files into bridge file and also i get some syntax errors in the merged swift classes am getting following errors what has showed in image
Do you create Bridging Header from these steps.
Step1. Create Bridging Header file
Step 2. After creating bridging header goto Project Settings and search Objective-C bridging header and add bridging header file path.
By following these step you have successfully added bridging header file. Next you have to import framework, you like to add.
If you still found any issue then show us the error.

How to use Objective-C bridging header in a Swift project

I've been asked to use a Objective-C framework in my Swift project.
But I have no idea how to accomplish this.
I've added this file:
Objective-CBridgingHeader.h
Inside this file I've put:
#ifndef Objective_CBridgingHeader_h
#define Objective_CBridgingHeader_h
#import <FMShop/FMShop.h>
#endif /* Objective_CBridgingHeader_h */
Now I was expecting to be able to:
Import FMShop
And get access to that framework using Swift code.
However when I try to
Import FMShop
My project no longer compiles claiming that there:
"No such module 'FMShop'"
What am I missing here?
My base SDK is iOS 8.0 and I'm using Xcode 7.3.1
This is what my project looks like:
Add a new Objective-C file to your Xcode project. Name it as you please and you should get an alert box asking if you would like to create a bridging header. Then delete that file as it was just used to create Bridging Header.
Alternatively you can you can create a bridging header yourself by choosing File > New > File > (iOS, watchOS, tvOS, or macOS) > Source > Header File. Name the file as "ProjectName-Bridging-Header.h" e.g. if Project Name is Test then give file name as "Test-Bridging-Header.h".
https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/Swift/Conceptual/BuildingCocoaApps/MixandMatch.html
Go to build settings and search for Objective-C Bridging Header key and provide path of your bridging header file.In my case it is "Main/Main-Bridging-Header.h".

How to import Objc Files into my Swift files within my custom cocoapods framework?

Simple explanation. I have created my own pod with name BSSelectableView, but within I need to use two files written in Objective-C. What do I need to achieve?
I need to make it visible within my Swift files, and also for people who will install my pod.
Your Target needs a Bridging Header.
This is an Objective-C-Header-File with the name [TargetName]-Bridging-Header.h
Within this file, you have to #import all Objective-C-Headers you want to use in your Swift-Files.
You don't have to import anything in your Swift files.

You need to create a [TargetName]-Bridging-Header file in your project.
import all the header files in bridging header file
Now you can use all objective c file in swift.

Add Bridging-Header inside .framework

I want to know if it is possible to add a Bridging-Header.h inside a .framework.
My goal is to have my framework compliance for swift.
I don't have find solution to add bridging header file inside my framework but have find other solution. That is to explain how to create a bridging header file without import Objective-C file.
For people who want to do this be careful when you indicate the path in Objective-C Bridging Header under Swift Compiler - Code Generation to your bridging header file. It is important to to this in your Target build setting and not in your project build setting else you will be have an error.
