How do you access a file from inside an app directory

Question

When using NSBundle, is there a macro such as $(APP_BUNDLE) or something similar, so that I can use a specific file?

You would normally use the `func url(forResource: String?, withExtension: String?) -> URL?` method on a bundle to access files shipped (bundled) with your app. To use files created by your app you would use the file manager — Scriptable, Jun 17 '20 at 10:29

You might be looking for NSBundle.mainBundle which returns a reference to the NSBundle for the application. Using this and the various instance methods provided by NSBundle you may then determine the paths/URLs of the files packaged within the application bundle.
