Download last version swift ARM compatible with your board, see table:

Build Swift On ARM prebuilt-binaries

and Download

wget https://github.com/uraimo/buildSwiftOnARM/releases/download/4.2.3/swift-4.2.3-RPi23-RaspbianStretch.tgz

Unzip the files to a folder of your choice:

For example: /home/michel/swift-4.2.3/

After unzip, export path:

export PATH=/home/michel/swift-4.2.3/usr/bin:"${PATH}"

Test if everything went right run command:

swift --version

And the output should be like this:

Swift version 4.2.3 (swift-4.2.3-RELEASE)
Target: armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf

Clone and run project

$ git clone https://github.com/micheltlutz/DHT-SwiftyGPIO

$ cd DHT-SwiftyGPIO

$ swift run

Waiting output should be like this:

Temperatura: 25.0 Humidade: 41.0

Reference files

The DHT.swift was based on the project dhtxx But with modifications

DHT class init allows you to select the sensor type and data conversion by default is used Celcius

Enums Types

public enum SupportedSensor {
    case dht11, dht22
}

public enum ConversionType {
    case Fahrenheit, Celsius
}

init(pin: GPIO, for sensor: SupportedSensor, conversion: ConversionType = .Celsius) { }

...

Example create module DHT11 Object

let dht = DHT(pin: gpios[.P4]!, for: .dht11)

Issues

Erros iniciais de leitura ocorrem devido a falha inicial do pulso

Usually get a good reading within the past 60s, many times more often than that

I hope this project helps start with the creation of IoT projects with Swift
