Thank you for this solution, this is way simpler than what I was trying to do.
For anyone who wants this behaviour for themselves, I have put the solution above in a small reusable AssetPackManager extension:
import System
import BackgroundAssets
@available(iOS 26, macOS 26, tvOS 26, *)
@available(watchOS, unavailable)
extension AssetPackManager {
/// Performs a shallow search of the specified directory within all asset packs and returns the paths of any contained items.
/// - Parameter path: The relative path to the asset pack directory whose contents you want to enumerate.
/// - Returns: A list of `URL` objects, that identify the contents of this asset pack folder
/// - Throws: When the path isn’t relative or when some other error occurs while retrieving the folder content.
public nonisolated func contentsOfPack(atPath path: String) throws -> [URL] {
let url = try AssetPackManager.shared.url(for: FilePath(stringLiteral: path))
let itemsInDirectory = try FileManager.default.contentsOfDirectory(atPath: url.path(percentEncoded: false))
var result: [URL] = []
result.reserveCapacity(itemsInDirectory.count)
for itemName in itemsInDirectory {
let fullURL = url.appending(component: itemName)
result.append(fullURL)
}
return result
}
}
