Questions on toursit visa and resident permir

Hi all,

Am a Mauritian citizen residing in Dublin for the past 5 years am planning real soon to come to join my Swiss partner to live there,as i know i can stay there up to 6 months as a tourist,plz can you tell me what do i need to do to get a resident permit here for a much longer period- what kind of paper do i need and where do i have to go to, And what is the steps to be able to work there as we were also planning to get married at some stage.
Thank you for your help in advance.
Regards
