SwiftBindings.Apple.MusicKit 26.2.10

SwiftBindings.Apple.MusicKit

Native .NET bindings for Apple's MusicKit framework — Apple Music catalog access, library access, and playback. These are not Objective-C proxy wrappers; they use .NET 10's native Swift interop for direct, high-performance calls into Swift APIs from C#.

Installation

dotnet add package SwiftBindings.Apple.MusicKit

Requirements

• .NET 10.0+
• Target framework: net10.0-ios26.2 (or -macos26.2 / -maccatalyst26.2 / -tvos26.2) or higher. The package is compiled against the iOS 26.2 SDK supplement, so your app's <TargetFramework> platform version must be ≥ 26.2 to restore it — an explicit lower TPV (e.g. net10.0-ios18.0) or a bare net10.0-ios whose installed workload defaults below 26.2 fails restore with NU1202. This is the compile-SDK pin, not your app's deployment minimum.
• Deployment minimum is separate — set your app's real minimum OS with <SupportedOSPlatformVersion> (independent of the TFM above). Individual APIs that need a newer OS at runtime are gated by generated [SupportedOSPlatform] attributes; the C# compiler flags a call that isn't valid for your target.
• macOS host for development
• MusicKit capability enabled on the app and an Apple Music subscription for playback

Usage

Authorization

using MusicKit;

var status = MusicAuthorization.CurrentStatus;
if (status == MusicAuthorization.Status.NotDetermined)
{
    // Prompt the user via MusicAuthorization.RequestAsync()
}

Audio variants

foreach (var variant in AudioVariantExtensions.AllCases)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"{variant} → {variant.GetDescription()}");
}

var dolby = AudioVariant.DolbyAtmos.GetDescription();

MusicItemCollection<T> projects to a fully indexed C# collection (Index, FormIndex, Distance, indexed index(_:offsetBy:) are all concrete methods, not stubs).
