React Native Module: Remote pod gets installed but not its dependencies? - ios

I have created React Native boilerplate app using:
npx react-native init MyApp --template react-native-template-typescript
After this I added a podSpec file to the root as shown below:
require "json"
package = JSON.parse(File.read(File.join(__dir__, "package.json")))
Pod::Spec.new do |s|
s.name = package["title"]
s.version = package["version"]
s.summary = package["description"]
s.description = <<-DESC
react-native-test-module
DESC
s.homepage = package["homepage"]
# brief license entry:
# optional - use expanded license entry instead:
s.license = "MIT"
s.authors = { package["authors"] => package["contact"] }
s.platforms = { :ios => "9.0" }
s.source = { :git => "https://github.com/github_account/react-native-test-module.git", :tag => "#{s.version}" }
s.source_files = "ios/**/*.{h,c,cc,cpp,m,mm,swift}"
s.requires_arc = true
# ...
# s.dependency "..."
s.dependency "React"
end
And I am including this pod into another ios App by:
pod 'MyApp', :git => 'https://github.com/shivam-rallyhealth/rn-content-megazord', :tag => '0.0.19'
When I do pod install --repo-update for some reason, it installs all the files, but not the pod dependencies and so When I do a build, I get this error:
#import <React/RCTBridgeDelegate.h> 'React/RCTBridgeDelegate.h' file not found
How do I modify my podSpec such that all the pods also gets installed and not just the module files?
Please note that I am very well able to build the project that lies within ios directory of the React Native boilerplate. The problem comes when I try to outsource it to another existing app and then use it there.

`dyld: Library not loaded` error when not using use_frameworks

I have a private pod called XXCommonUtils which has one dependency installed via Cocoapods, EDSunriseSet.
The podspec for my private pod looks like this
Pod::Spec.new do |s|
s.name = "XXCommonUtils"
s.module_name = 'XXCommonUtils'
s.version = "2.0.2"
s.summary = "XX CommonUtils Component"
s.homepage = 'https://www.xx.com'
s.license = { :type => "Private", :text => "Copyright 2016-2018 by XX. All right reserved." }
s.author = { "XX XX" => "xx.xx#xx.com" }
s.source = { :git => "https://github.xx.com/TSS-XX-CoreApp/iOS-Stage-Frameworks", :tag => "XXCommonUtils-2.0.2-Beta" }
s.swift_version = '4.1.2'
s.platform = :ios, '8.0'
s.requires_arc = true
s.ios.vendored_frameworks = 'XXCommonUtils/XXCommonUtils.framework'
s.frameworks = 'UIKit', 'CoreData'
s.dependency 'EDSunriseSet', '1.0'
end
You can see the EDSunriseSet dependency defined here.
I am importing this private Pod in to an application with the following Podfile
source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
source 'https://github.xx.com/TSS-XX-CoreApp/iOS-Stage-CocoaPods.git'
target 'netperf01' do
# Comment the next line if you're not using Swift and don't want to use dynamic frameworks
# use_frameworks!
pod 'XXCommonUtils', '2.0.2'
# Pods for netperf01
target 'netperf01Tests' do
inherit! :search_paths
# Pods for testing
end
end
I see that both the common utils private pod and it's dependency EDSunriseSet are installed in the pod install output.
When I run the application, I get an instant crash with this error
dyld: Library not loaded: #rpath/EDSunriseSet.framework/EDSunriseSet
Referenced from: /Users/me/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/CF8F6C93-2BCF-44F5-B5D1-8B567777271A/data/Containers/Bundle/Application/9E462A24-0417-494F-9081-77D9A33C3B7D/netperf01.app/Frameworks/XXCommonUtils.framework/XXCommonUtils
Reason: image not found
If I uncomment # use_frameworks! in my application Podfile then the app works as normal, however unfortunately this is not a suitable fix for the client attempting the use the XXCommonUtils library. Is there another way to solve this problem?

Unable to add cocoapod dependancy in Custom framework - Swift

Report
What did you do?
I have created podspec file for my custom Framework as:
Pod::Spec.new do |s|
s.platform = :ios
s.ios.deployment_target = '10.0'
s.name = "CustomFramework"
s.summary = "CustomFramework have all the wrapper API."
s.requires_arc = true
s.version = "1.0.0"
s.license = { :type => "MIT", :file => "LICENSE" }
s.author = { "My Name" => "my.name#xyz.com" }
s.homepage = "URL_LINK"
s.source = { :git => "github_url_link", :tag => "#{s.version}"}
s.dependency 'RealmSwift', '3.5.0'
s.dependency 'Firebase/Core', '5.1.0'
s.dependency 'Firebase/Firestore', '5.1.0'
s.dependency 'PubNub','4.7.5'
s.source_files = "CustomFramework/**/*.{swift}"
end
I am adding this Custom framework pod in the sample project as:
target 'customFrameworkSample' do
use_frameworks!
pod 'customFramework' , :path => 'Local_Path_for_customFramework.podspec'
target 'customFrameworkSampleTests' do
use_frameworks!
pod 'customFramework' , :path => 'Local_Path_for_customFramework.podspec'
end
end
What did you expect to happen?
Pod should install properly and When sample project is Build, it should Run and not throw any error.
What happened instead?
In the Sample project, error is thrown while importing firbase, RealmSwift files, etc.. in CustomFramework files.
CocoaPods Environment
cocoapod : 1.5.3
When you specify dependancies in your Podspec you are saying that YOUR CUSTOM FRAMEWORK is dependant on them. So the dependancies will only be available to reference within your framework. If you want the sample application to be able to reference Firebase then you will need to specify this within the sample application's podfile.
Documentation references:
Podspec 'dependancies'
Podfile 'dependancies'
make sure you have added firebase library in Linked framework and libraries

After creating own cocoapods library, when pod install my pod, There is only ReplaceMe.m file

I created my own cocoapods library and push it. But when i run pod install for an app, there is only ReplaceMe.m file. But i have changed this file with my own classes. And also i can see files on github.
platform :'ios', '8.0'
pod 'MyPod'
However, if i add git url to Podfile, Library classes exist.
platform :'ios', '8.0'
pod 'MyPod', :git => 'https://github.com/ugurcetinkaya/MyPod.git'
What should i do to solve this?
My .podspec file:
Pod::Spec.new do |s|
s.name = 'UURCCentralizedTokenView'
s.version = '0.1.0'
s.summary = 'Customizable Centralized TokenView'
s.description = 'Customizable Centralized TokenView for iOS applications.'
s.homepage = 'https://github.com/ugurcetinkaya/UURCCentralizedTokenView'
# s.screenshots = 'www.example.com/screenshots_1', 'www.example.com/screenshots_2'
s.license = { :type => 'MIT', :file => 'LICENSE' }
s.author = { 'Ugur Cetinkaya' => 'ugurcetinkaya#ymail.com' }
s.source = { :git => 'https://github.com/ugurcetinkaya/UURCCentralizedTokenView.git', :tag => s.version.to_s }
s.ios.deployment_target = '8.0'
s.source_files = 'UURCCentralizedTokenView/Classes/**/*'
s.frameworks = 'UIKit'
I solved my problem. Git version of library didn't have library classes on current release. I added classes to my repo. After that i updated version of my repo and my pod with adding new tag to my repo. Cocoapods version is looking at the version of repo.

pod spec lint fails

I made a Swift framework I want to make a CocoaPods for it.
I've followed all the instructions:
created podspec file, added version tag, pushed it to github
When I run pod lib lint it passes but when I run pod spec lint it fails.
Here is my podspec file
Pod::Spec.new do |s|
s.name = "Seru"
s.version = "0.0.3"
s.summary = "Seru is Simple Core Data stack"
s.description = <<-DESC
Seru is Swift framework for working wit Core Data. It setup your core data stack and
gives you nica actions to work with it
DESC
s.homepage = "https://github.com/kostiakoval/Seru"
s.license = { :type => "MIT", :file => "LICENSE" }
s.author = { "Kostiantyn Koval" => "konstantin.koval1#gmail.com" }
s.social_media_url = "http://twitter.com/kostiakoval"
s.platform = :ios, "8.0"
s.source = { :git => "https://github.com/kostiakoval/Seru.git", :tag => s.version }
s.source_files = "Seru/Source", "Seru/Source/**/*.{swift}"
s.requires_arc = true
s.ios.vendored_frameworks = 'Carthage/Build/iOS/Sweet.framework'
end
It has external framework dependency. I'm guessing this is a problem.
When I do pod speck lint, it says that I can't find that external framework
The problem was that CocoaPods don't include vendored_frameworks folder.
To fix it is to specify that this folder should be included to a CocoaPod by using preserve_paths.
s.preserve_paths = 'Carthage/Build/iOS/Sweet.framework'

Including localized xib files in a private cocoapod

So i figure this should be really easy but after a day of Googling and playing around i still can't seem to get this working. I have a private cocoapod which downloads code from a private git repository. This is all set-up and works fine.
What i'm struggling with is i need to include localized xibs in the cocoapod. I have a LoginView which is shared code across a number of our internal apps. However we have localised versions of the view. From what i can tell due to the way cocoapods flattens out the structure it's just copying the localized xib which is causing the *.lproj directories to be lost. When i then try and use the cocoapod it seems to pick up the first xib regardless of the language setting on the device.
I'm hoping someone might be able to guide me as to how i go about retaining the folder heirachy or if there's another way to include the localised xibs into the cocoapod.

Thanks
I think you might be after "Development Pods".
So I have two projects, a library project and an app specific project.
In my library project I have a library.podspec file
Pod::Spec.new do |s|
s.name = "Library"
s.version = "0.0.1"
s.summary = "Shared library."
s.description = "This is an iOS library for shared common code across all apps"
s.homepage = "http://blah.com"
s.license = 'COMMERCIAL'
s.author = { "My name" => "my#email.com" }
s.social_media_url = "http://twitter.com/blah"
s.platform = :ios, '8.0'
s.source = { :git => "https://bitbucket.org/blah/library.git", :tag => '0.0.1' }
s.source_files = 'Library/Classes/**/*.{h,m}', 'Library/Models/**/*.{h,m}', 'Library/ViewModels/**/*.{h,m}', 'Library/Views/**/*.{h,m}'
s.resources = "Library/Images/**/*.png", "Library/Images/**/*.jpg", 'Library/Views/**/*.xib', "Library/Fonts/*.otf"
s.requires_arc = true
s.framework = 'MapKit', 'CoreLocation'
s.dependency 'AFNetworking'
s.dependency 'ReactiveCocoa'
s.dependency 'JLRoutes'
end
Then in my specific app project's Podfile...
source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :ios, '8.0'
link_with 'Myapp', 'Myapp-Tests'
pod 'Library', :path => '../library/'
Now when I run "pod update" for my specific app project I can see under the Pod project instead of under Pods, I have a new folder called Development Pods.
Just be aware that if you add new files in your Library project, be sure to pod update again.
Peace.
