I am trying to create a cocoapod and I keep getting this error:
Unable to read the license file `LICENSE.txt` for the spec
'WhiteFlowerFactory (0.0.1)'
My podspec code:
spec.name = "WhiteFlowerFactory"
spec.version = "0.0.1"
spec.license = { :type => "MIT", :file => "LICENSE.txt" }
spec.source_files = "WhiteFlowerFactory/*.{swift}"
spec.platform = :ios
spec.ios.deployment_target = '11.0'
spec.swift_version = "5.0"
And here is where it appears in my project directory:
What I have tried:
Moving the LICENSE.txt file to the second "WhiteFlowerFactory" subdirectory
Renamed to LICENSE.md
Renamed to LICENSE (no extension)
No matter what, I continually receive the same error.
I am also getting a separate error, and I am not sure if this error is related, but I will add it here just in case:
[iOS] unknown: Encountered an unknown error (Could not find a `ios`
simulator (valid values: ). Ensure that Xcode -> Window -> Devices has
at least one `ios` simulator listed or otherwise add one.) during
validation.
I've had both of these errors for several hours. I deleted Xcode 10.2 and 11.0 beta and all simulators and derived data and just freshly reinstalled Xcode 10.3 and its simulators. Still receiving both errors.
Edit: Just updated from cocoapods 1.6.1 -> 1.7.5, second error is solved, still receiving the license error:

The podspec should include a source field that describes the location of the source. See docs here. Typically it describes a github repo along with a version based tag that has been pushed to that repo.
I had same issue, but my LICENSE file had no extension. So I've removed extension in podspec and it works
s.license = { :type => 'MIT', :file => 'LICENSE' }

we are following the KMM documentation to build a very simple library available for our IOS and Android apps.
Following the sample project generated by android studio for a KMM library, we were able to install and intergrate manually the library built, in a IOS project.
Now we are trying to publish this library on cocoapod and make it available for installation.
The lib is called shared.. a shared.podspec is generated..
if we run
pod lib lint shared/shared.podspec --verbose
we have an error

pod repo push fails
we tried to publish the library manually ignoring the lint , and it installed with no errors but it fails later during the build of the ios project.

Im trying to upload the new version of my pod to cocoapods spec repo. The current live version is 0.3.1 and it is a framework build with swift 4.2. Now i updated the library and build with Xcode 11.1 (swift 5). But while linting the podspec file, im getting an unknown DSL error in the terminal.

We ran into this issue when we try creating a release and publishing a library. This error occurs when you are trying to run pod spec lint or pod repo push. The error says "DSLError" and doesn't give much information on what is causing it. I found little help online and some places they say, there could be a syntax error in the podspec file. We didn't have any in our podspec. However, this answer from stackoverflow gave me some direction https://stackoverflow.com/a/64779582
It looks like while making a release for one SDK/library, the pod spec lint and pod repo push validates all the podspecs in the folder besides the ones you ran. I don't know how that works internally. You should look for the following scenarios to identify the issue:
If there are other podspecs for capabilities that have different tags(Example: ABC.podspec pointed to source tag 1.0.0-ABC and XYZ.podspec pointed to source tag 2.0.0-XYZ)
Multiple podspecs have dependencies on different versions of the same module(Example: Module1.podspec depends on Module 5 version 10.0.0 and Module2.podspec also depends on Module 5 but on the version 11.0.0).
Syntax errors in any of the podspecs
If you come across either or both 1 & 2, it could be a potential cause for the DSLError.
When you run into this issue, make sure you look for and update the following:
All podspecs to have pointed to one source tag
All dependencies on a module pointed to one version of it in each capability.
Fix the sytanx errors.
This issue will go away or reduce significantly when the SDK libraries can be separated into their repositories instead of all in one repository, or perhaps even by keeping each podspec in their own individual folder.
I am trying to create a CocoaPod and when I try pod lib lint there's an error about ERROR | [iOS] file patterns: Thesource_filespattern did not match any file.
I am trying to follow BlinkingLabel pod as an example and using Gitlab for storage of my .git . I tagged it successfully 1.0.0 and it worked for it.
I used my CocoaPod in Example for Pod and its working but I got the error:
Ignoring unf_ext-0.0.7.5 because its extensions are not built. Try: gem pristine unf_ext --version 0.0.7.5
-> BlinkingLabel (1.0.0)

[!] BlinkingLabel did not pass validation, due to 1 error.
You can use the `--no-clean` option to inspect any issue.
My source_file prop is:
s.source_files = 'BlinkingLabel/Classes/**/*'
But I've tried it with:
s.source_files = "BlinkingLabel/**/*"
s.source_files = 'BlinkingLabel/BlinkingLabel.swift'
s.source_files = 'BlinkingLabel/Classes/**/*.{h,m,c}'
No one has worked for me in lint.
And there's a strange thing.
In the article and examples it recommended to use with BlinkingLabel/Classes/**/* but there's nothing any directory as named Classes in BlinkingLabel, I guess because of new update of CocoaPod or maybe something is different in new CocoaPod. Can you explain this?
And how to solve this problem for pod lib lint at all?
Edit: I've searched over stackoverflow but nothing work for me.
Thanks in advance.
For anyone who stuck at - ERROR | [iOS] file patterns: Thesource_filespattern did not match any file., do not use source_files like below.
s.source_files = 'BlinkingLabel/Classes/**/*'
Use it with your inner directory name and exact file type.
For example if you have a Handler.swift file it must be.
s.source_files = 'Classes/**/*.swift'
If you have any .c file in your pod project that used
s.source_files = 'Classes/**/*.c'
or you can mix it with different file types.
Further I realized that the you must not trust to Classes directory.
You can create a Sources directory and can add all your source files into it and then you can try it with
s.source_files = 'Sources/**/*.swift'
This is the exact solution for me.
I hope it helps for anyone who stuck at.
I regret to ask the question.
It worked now.
s.source_files = 'BlinkingLabel/Classes/**/*'
I've not changed anything but it worked. That's strange.
You need to make sure that you have your files and source_files is appointed to that folder, and then check lint locally
pod lib lint YPlayer.podspec
if all ok, then you can push to cocoapods
pod trunk register email#domain.com 'Your Name' --description='Senior ios developer'
pod trunk push YPlayer.podspec
if it that failed again because of source_files then you need to make new tag, and need to push podspec file and your code relatively, because pod trunk push will check your your code using tag on git not locally like pod lib lint YPlayer.podspec

I know I have a few warnings that I can clean up. But there is only one error that I'm getting, which is - ERROR | [OSX] xcodebuild: Returned an unsuccessful exit code.. And above that it says that Embed Pods Frameworks was the cause of failure.
Not quire sure how to debug this since I can build and run the example projects in Xcode just fine.

Any ideas on how to fix/debug this?
The error should be about
line 104: EXPANDED_CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY: unbound variable
The solution (as stated in Issue 7708 on github/Cocoapods ) should be to add the following User-Defined Settings to project:
EXPANDED_CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY="-"
EXPANDED_CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY_NAME="-"`
Try adding the flag --no-clean. This flag makes lint leave the build directory
intact for inspection
so you can debug that build failure in a workspace which may be more familiar and give you more information.
Looks like they fixed this for xcode 10 in pr github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/pull/7720, you could try upgrading to 1.6.0, or downgrading xcode to 9.4.
I am trying to create a private pod that ships with two static libraries.
Source of the pod is in swift however it depends upon two third party static libraries on which I have no control.
Linting my podspec, I get the following error just for the second lib (with a modulemap)
- ERROR | [iOS] xcodebuild: Returned an unsuccessful exit code. You can use `--verbose` for more information.
- ERROR | xcodebuild: TestKit/TestKit/SSAIPolicy.swift:11:8: error: no such module 'SecondLib'
And, here is the source part of my podspec file:
spec.source_files = 'TestKit/*', 'Vendor/**/*.{h,modulemap}'
spec.vendored_libraries = 'Vendor/FirstLib/libService.a', 'Vendor/SecondLib/libManagement.a'
spec.pod_target_xcconfig = { 'OTHER_LDFLAGS' => '-ObjC' }
Note: I am able to use this framework just fine by compiling and dropping it manually in the main app
In case anyone needs to know, I got it working by changing 'Target Membership'
of header files in my library from 'Project' to 'Public'
