I'd like to know how to test behavior in Swift on Desktop that needs to interact with external elements, in my case the Finder.
My goal is simple: add an option in the right-click menu of the Finder that will open my application with the selected entry or entries (file or folder) from the Finder.
I have thus set the elements NSMenuItem, NSMessage, NSPortName, NSRequiredContext (NSApplicationIdentifier: com.apple.finder) etc.
I also created a class FinderService with a function performService having this declaration:
func performService(_ pboard: NSPasteboard, userData: String, error: AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<NSString>) {
NSLog("performService called!")
}
And I instantiated my class like this: NSApplication.shared.servicesProvider = FinderService().
However, when I build and launch the application nothing happens, well my application runs fine and the instantiation of the class seems to be correctly called. But when I open my Finder, my action is not displayed in the right-click context menu. And in the logs of my application, no error appears. How can I test this?
