a script that looks and replaces a text in a .plist file in swift

main.swift
import Foundation

func replaceTextInPlistFile(filePath: String, searchText: String, replacementText: String) {
    // Check if the file exists
    guard FileManager.default.fileExists(atPath: filePath) else {
        print("File does not exist.")
        return
    }
    
    // Load the .plist file as a dictionary
    guard let plistDictionary = NSMutableDictionary(contentsOfFile: filePath) else {
        print("Failed to load .plist file.")
        return
    }
    
    // Iterate through each key-value pair in the plist dictionary
    for (key, value) in plistDictionary {
        if let stringValue = value as? String {
            if stringValue.contains(searchText) {
                // Replace the text
                plistDictionary[key] = stringValue.replacingOccurrences(of: searchText, with: replacementText)
            }
        }
    }
    
    // Save the modified dictionary back to the .plist file
    if plistDictionary.write(toFile: filePath, atomically: true) {
        print("Text replaced successfully.")
    } else {
        print("Failed to write .plist file.")
    }
}

// Usage example:
let filePath = "/path/to/your/plist/file.plist"
let searchText = "old text"
let replacementText = "new text"
