Documentation - help!

Thanks for writing this - it seems perfect for my migration from Basil to Paprika.
However, I can't figure out even how to get started.
I'm ok with following commands at the Terminal (MacOS 10.15), but I can't even tell how to compile basil2yaml...

When I execute the compile command "swift build -c release --static-swift-stdlib" in terminal, I get the following error.

error: terminated(72): TMPDIR=/var/folders/y4/wbwlvgzd16l14xjm7cn5tjc00000gn/T/ XPC_FLAGS=0x0 LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 HOME=/Users/[MYUSERNAME] SHELL=/bin/zsh PWD=/Users/[MYUSERNAME]/Library/Mobile Documents/comappleCloudDocs/Downloads TERM=xterm-256color SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/private/tmp/com.apple.launchd.BjhV8UAwBM/Listeners USER=[MYUSERNAME] LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib _=/usr/bin/swift CPATH=/usr/local/include __CF_USER_TEXT_ENCODING=0x1F5:0x0:0x2 SHLVL=1 TERM_PROGRAM_VERSION=433 PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin LOGNAME=[MYUSERNAME] TERM_PROGRAM=Apple_Terminal SDKROOT=/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk OLDPWD=/Users/[MYUSERNAME] TERM_SESSION_ID=6699DD0D-47EC-4762-BFD9-31A5EE1467AF XPC_SERVICE_NAME=0 /usr/bin/xcrun --sdk macosx --find xctest output:

I do have Xcode 12.4 installed.

Would it possible to provide a bit more documentation?

Many thanks for your help

To be honest, I don't know if it's even compatible with the latest version of Xcode/Swift. I used it once to port my recipes and never used it again. :)

I have a vague recollection of the command-line tools being an optional selection when installing Xcode. Maybe double-check that?

There should also be a binary download on the release page: https://github.com/doxxx/basil2yaml/releases/tag/v1.0.0

I was able to build it on macOS Mojave (10.14) with Swift version 5.1.3 (swift --version). There's a bunch of warnings but it builds successfully.

Try running xcode-select --install to install the Xcode command-line tools.

Thanks very much for your help.
I can't get this working, at all, either using the source code, or the compiled binary (the binary just doesn't run at all and I get the dreaded "dyld: Library not loaded: @rpath/libswiftCore.dylib" error.

Thanks again, but I will have to try and find another way to convert my recipes!

Sorry! I'm a very occasional macOS developer, so I don't really know how to diagnose your problem.
