I've been struggling to solve a problem.
I'm building a cross platform app (iOS and Android) using Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) where I need a library from Google (https://github.com/google/libphonenumber).
For Android, I can point to a Maven repo (https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/googlecode/libphonenumber/libphonenumber/8.12.6/).
For iOS, I can use a ObjC port of libPhonenumber via Cocoapods.(https://cocoapods.org/pods/libPhoneNumber-ios).
But, I can't use Kotlin's (cocoapod plugin) to properly recognize the Pod. The plugin appears to fail to build.
Here's the details of my setup:
Xcode v11.5
IntelliJ IDEA v2020.1.2
Cocoapods v1.9.1
Gradle 6.0.1
Sample repo (https://github.com/touchlab/kotlin-native)
NOTE: Within the repo, I'm using ./samples/cocoapods
modify ./samples/cocoapods/kotlin-library/build.gradle.kts
commented out AFNetworking, remove AFNetworking pod
pod("AFNetworking", "~> 3.2.0")
add a new pod
pod("libPhoneNumber-iOS")
modify ./samples/cocoapods/kotlin-library/gradle.properties
change this line:
kotlin.native.home=../../../dist
to this:
#kotlin.native.home=../../../dist
in Terminal in this folder: ./samples/cocoapods/kotlin-library/
./gradlew podspec
This creates a podspec file (libPhoneNumber-iOS.def) in ./samples/cocoapods/kotlin-library/build/cocoapods/defs/
cd from kotlin-library to ios-app folder
cd ../ios-app/
Pod install using the command:
pod install
You'll see something like:
Downloading dependencies
Installing kotlin_library (1.0)
Installing libPhoneNumber-iOS (0.9.15)
Generating Pods project
Integrating client project
Pod installation complete! There is 1 dependency from the Podfile and 2 total pods installed.
When I build the sample 'ios-app' target: simulator in Xcode, I get the error:
fatal error: module 'libPhoneNumber' not found
I have tried other libPhoneNumber pods, such as:
libPhoneNumberSwift
LTPhoneNumberField
Both fail to build using Kotlin's cocoapods plugin, but work as a Pod without Kotlin's cocoapod plugin.
What am I missing?
This particular problem seems to be caused by the dash in the pod's name. There was already an issue reported on GitHub. For now, it's recommended to workaround this problem by re-naming the module. Changing your kotlin-library/build.gradle.kts like
pod("libPhoneNumber-iOS", moduleName = "libPhoneNumber_iOS")
should help. Please give it a try and tell here or on GH if it works.
I have obtained excellent results by adding the unchanged Javascript version of libphonenumber using JavaScriptCore in IOS. The only part of the library not available yet in Javascript is the geocoder.
I used the concept explained here: https://www.appcoda.com/javascriptcore-swift .
Performance is great and there is no porting involved. Always the latest version available.

I have a project using a Cocoapods as dependency manager and I am trying to create an Xcode Cloud workflow for it, everything look simple to configure and I added the ci_post_clone.sh to run the pod install command before start building.
Based on the logs all the dependencies are downloaded but whenever it starts building I have the No such Module X error, I am not sure what i did wrong but it looks like xcode Cloud misses the step of Building targets in dependency order and it starts building the main project before building the dependencies
Did anyone face this problem and how did you fix it
Thank you for your help
I found a temporary solution by adding the pod folder to my repository, this is not what most people are willing to do but for now it is working
do you have a screenshot for how you set this up? Because the script file ci_post_clone.sh needs to exist in a repository named ci_scripts that is at the same level as your workspace / xcode project. You also need to be sure to mark that file as executable
then you can brew install cocoapods and run pod install on that script. cheers! just got this working this morning by following notes found here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/making-dependencies-available-to-xcode-cloud
I'm interested on Running this GitHub repository of an iOS Application: https://github.com/septadev/SEPTA-iOS I opened the iSEPTA.xcodeproj file on XCode from the iSEPTA folder, but I'm getting these Buildtime Errors. For example: No such module 'ReSwift', and this is the window I get prompted when I select any of the yellow alerts, I'm not sure if I should perform these changes, yet.
Could it be some incomparability with my XCode and Swift versions?
Please, help!!
This project uses Carthage as a dependency management system for using external dependencies.
You should install Carthage to your computer and then run carthage update from the terminal in the root directory of the project. This will instal the dependencies and will allow you to run the project.
Take a look at Cartfile: it indicates this repo is using Carthage package manager. Follow their instructions to install dependent libraries
This repository requires Carthage ( https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage ) - this is a dependency manager. You can install it using Homebrew (https://brew.sh/)
brew install carthage
then you have to run carthageBuild.sh script (which runs carthage update):
./carthageBuild.sh
and then you have to open: Septa.xcworkspace file
This would be the correct solution if the project used Cocoapods. Since it uses Carthage, look to others answers unless you are referencing this answer to a similar issue.
You need to use Cocoapods to integrate the pods attached to the project. Often times projects will not come with them precompiled. Either you opened the blue project file with the *.xcodeproj extension instead of the white project file with the *.xcworkspace extension.... or you don't have the pods installed at all. In which case read below.
Instructions as follows:
cd to project directory
Install Cocoapods
sudo gem install cocoapods
Ensure the you have the given pods in your repo collection for install
pod repo update
Install the pods
pod install
Validate Project Settings
This is necessary until cocoapods v1.6 release (beta is out).
Open the white project file with the *.xcworkspace extension
After those steps are complete, the project should run normally.
I've been making a chatbot using Dialogflow formerly Api.AI but now encountering error while integrating the project to my app written in Swift in Xcode. I'd installed cocoapods using terminal "sudo gem install cocoapods" and using this version of Dialogflow to create the podfile.
All gone well but now when I'm importing inside Xcode in my app's AppDelegate.swift file using import ApiAI or import AI Xcode is showing me error that No such module. Please refer to image.
And on GitHub this library which is written in Swift, showing that it has depreciated and asking me to refer to API.AI's Apple Client library which is in Obj-C and unfortunately I've no expertise in Obj-C.
After installing a pod using Cocoa Pods, you must from that point forward open the workspace rather that the project file. The icons will appear differently in your project like so:
In the image you provided is clearly showing that you have opened the project file not the workspace one.
Go to Pods Build settings and set Build Active Architecture Only to NO. This always helps while using pods. After that clean the project once and then build.
After installing pod you should clean project (shift + command + k) and then builds (command + b) in it a few times. Repeat it a few times if it is not still working.
Hope this help!
I have an iOS application that needs to be integrated into CI/CD pipeline in CircleCI. Most of my dependencies have been added using CocoPods. There is one particular dependency of OpenCV2 that is manually compiled and used. On the local development machine, It is simple to use with drag & drop in Xcode. But, while running the build on a CI server. We don't have access to GUI and need to link dependency from the command line. I have not found much of the resources dealing with this issue.
I have tried few options from this link
https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPFrameworks/Tasks/InstallingFrameworks.html
The framework that I am trying to use is compiled and zipped in an archive (opencv2.framework.zip and uploaded on Amazon S3. It is because the compiled framework is about 300 MB in size. So, I can't push it to the source repository. So, I download it using curl and unzip on CI machine. I have tried unzipping it to
/System/Library/Frameworks
/Library/Frameworks
~/Library/Frameworks
gym --scheme "project" --workspace "project.xcworkspace"
None of them really worked.I would like a way to register this framework in the system so that linker can find it while linking.
Suggest a way to extract framework into a location which linker can automatically look into.
Suggest a way where I can link framework manually from command line build
I have never used OpenCV but a quick pod search gives this result, so looks like they are already supporting cocoapods.....
pod search opencv
-> OpenCV2 (3.2.0)
OpenCV (Computer Vision) for iOS.
pod 'OpenCV2', '~> 3.2.0'
- Homepage: http://opencv.org
- Source: http://github.com/bcomeau/opencv/releases/download/3.2.0/opencv-3.2.0-ios-framework.zip
- Versions: 3.2.0 [master repo]
Second:
You can use Carthage https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage
You can use both Cocoapods and Carthage at the same time as long as they are not downloading the same dependencies.
Create a private repo, follow the carthage tutorial for uploading frameworks https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage#supporting-carthage-for-your-framework
then put opencv2 to your repo.
Then add your repo to your cartfile
Then before or after you install cocoapods, install carthage frameworks too.
It is a bit work but can solve your problem.
Third:
Looks like they also support Carthage

Look at the last couple of comments..
After researching on what library to use in one of my projects for epub reader, I decided to use MuPDF. I integrated it using Cocoapods, but when I build the app, it gives me a couple of errors on _math.h_ file on lines 36 and 73. I have attached the screenshots for reference. It would be of great help if anyone here can help me build the app after integrating MuPDF without any error. line 36
I think you are being hit by a not-backwards-compatible change that took place in CocoaPods 0.39 ( https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/pull/4057 ).
Can you upgrade your CocoaPod to 0.39? (gem update cocoa pods) If you do so and then run pod install that should fix it.
If you can't upgrade to 0.39, you could use the 1.7 podspec mupdf, which is compatible with CocoaPod 0.38.
There's an example project that uses the MuPDF pod spec here:
https://github.com/jogu/MuPDF-example
(To try and prevent this problem in the future I just pushed a new pod, 1.8.2, that has a cocoapods_version >= 0.39 restriction in the podspec.)
