I'm working on an application to queue up work (URLs to fetch) and then batch do the work upon request. I'd like to be able to send an AppleEvent (via an AppleScript) with a URL to my app, semantically saying, "Add this URL to your list of stuff to do."

So, what do I have to do withing my SwiftUI application to make it able to receive such a message?

The only tutorial I'm aware of that uses Swift instead of ObjC is the following from 2016. Also, it looks llike you have to use NSApplication, not the new App struct, but that doesn’t preclude SwiftUI.

It might be easier to use an x-callback-url instead of AppleScript:

I've thought about this myself, which is why I have bookmarks to these resources, but I haven’t actually tried it. I hope you post any tips you develop.

Thanks for these references! I'm in the middle of moving, but this will likely be my next project in a couple of weeks. I'll definitely write an update!
