CocoaPods - Unable to find a specification for `GoogleMaps` - ios

Question

I'm new to iOS, i already have Alamofire and MarqueeLabel on my Podfile and now trying to add GoogleMaps, it keeps showing this message,
[!] Unable to find a specification for `GoogleMaps`
My Podfile looks like this
# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :ios, '9.0'
target 'Migapixel' do
# Comment the next line if you're not using Swift and don't want to use dynamic frameworks
use_frameworks!
pod 'GoogleMaps'
pod 'Alamofire',
:git => 'https://github.com/Alamofire/Alamofire.git',
:branch => 'master',
:tag => '4.0.0'
pod 'MarqueeLabel/Swift',
:git => 'https://github.com/cbpowell/MarqueeLabel.git'
# Pods for Migapixel
post_install do |installer| installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target| target.build_configurations.each do |config| config.build_settings['ALWAYS_EMBED_SWIFT_STANDARD_LIBRARIES'] = 'NO' end end end
target 'MigapixelTests' do
inherit! :search_paths
end
target 'MigapixelUITests' do
inherit! :search_paths
# Pods for testing
end
end
i even tried this
pod 'GoogleMaps',
:git => 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
What am i doing wrong?

Answer 1

Try removing source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git' and moving use_frameworks! out of the target block. Moreover you don't need to manually set the git path for both Alamofire and MarqueeLabel.
Try this:
platform :ios, '9.0'
use_frameworks!
target 'Migapixel' do
pod 'GoogleMaps'
pod 'Alamofire'
pod 'MarqueeLabel/Swift'
# Pods for Migapixel
end
post_install do |installer| installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target| target.build_configurations.each do |config| config.build_settings['ALWAYS_EMBED_SWIFT_STANDARD_LIBRARIES'] = 'NO' end end end
target 'MigapixelTests' do
inherit! :search_paths
end
target 'MigapixelUITests' do
inherit! :search_paths
# Pods for testing
end
Edit:
It seems that there's something wrong with your local repo.
Try cleaning and reinstalling:
pod repo remove master
pod setup

i resolved the issue like that with these step:
open terminal.
go to your project path.
type:
pod repo update
install pod again.

Answer 3

After trying many things Here is the fix!!
Imp: Make sure that you have these lines in your PodFile
source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :ios, '8.0'
target 'YOUR_APPLICATION_TARGET_NAME_HERE' do
pod 'GoogleMaps'
end
If the above is fine then you need to update the pods:
try the following steps:
Open a new terminal and run the following command in a temp directory.
pod try GoogleMaps
keep patience! It will take some time but will update the pod.
Now try to install the pod in ur project again. It should work.Else try to run the following commands in the project dir:
pod repo update
try again.
Comment in the case of any issue!!

Answer 4

Go to your project directory and delete pods folder and .lock file then run
pod repo update
it helps for me.
