If you already have Plank installed, jump to the tutorial.
The easiest way to install Plank is through Homebrew:
$ brew install plank
Plank supports building in Ubuntu Linux via Docker. The Dockerfile in the repository will fetch the most recent release of plank and build dependencies including the Swift snapshot.
$ docker build -t plank .
Plank is built using the Swift Package Manager. Although you’ll be able to build Plank using swift build directly, for distribution of the binary we’d recommend using the commands in the Makefile since they will pass the necessary flags to bundle the Swift runtime.
$ make archive
Test that Plank installed correctly by running it with --version:
$ plank --version
Generate a schema file (user.json) using Plank using the format plank [options] file1 file2 file3 ...
$ plank user.json
This will generate files (User.h, User.m) in the current directory
Generate a schema file (user.json) using Plank.
$ ls
User.h User.m
There are a number of options that can be specified with your invocation of plank. The command line reference describes the general and language specific options available.
