How to add GitHub's Mantle to Xcode using CocoaPods - objective-c

I have added GitHub's Mantle project to a iOS 6 project using CocoaPods:
$ pod search Mantle
$ vim Podfile // here I added pod 'Mantle'
$ pod install // this installs Mantle 1.0
Then I have added the ($inherited) variable to the Header Search Paths of project's 'Build Settings' section, before my custom search paths. When importing the Mantle header file Xcode complains with
#import "Mantle.h" // => 'Mantle/MTLJSONAdapter.h' file not found
Am I missing some step? I have other pods installed as well (AFNetworking and SSKeychain) but only Mantle is giving me issues.
I have also added SSToolkit but following the instructions on its 'Getting started', i.e. not using CocoaPods.

Since the problem seemed to be related with the Xcode project/workspace configuration I tried all kind of 'cleaning' solutions:
Delete the Pods directory, the Podfile.lock file and install everything from scratch.
Delete the MyProject.xcworkspace directory and repeat step 1
Enter MyProject.xcodeproj, delete project.xcworkspace and xcuserdata directories and repeat step 1.
Go to the global Xcode directory (/Users/my_user/Library/Developer/Xcode), remove everything related to the project, specially the DerivedData subdirectory, and repeat step 1.
The final step seems to be the final solution, though I cannot tell which file/folder removal did the trick.

Have you added Mantle to your Podfile? You mention running pod install Mantle which doesn't/shouldn't do anything but show an error. ([!] Unrecognized argument:Mantle'`)
After you add Mantle to your Podfile and run pod install you should be able to link Mantle.h directly and there will be a few directories in your xcworkspace and the Pods project. After this you can use #import "Mantle.h" no issues.

I had the same problem, but the problem appears to simply be that my Mantle pod was too old. Changed version to '2.0.5' and pod updated, things work fine.

Error: RNFirebase core module was not found natively on iOS

I created a new app and I am trying to use react-native-firebase. But I continually get this error:
RNFirebase core module was not found natively on iOS, ensure you have
correctly included the RNFirebase pod in your projects 'Podfile' and
have run 'pod install'.
See http://invertase.link/ios for the ios setup guide.
Steps that I have done:
yarn add react-native-firebase
react-native link react-native-firebase
Set up my .plist file from Google under .../myproject/ios/myproject
Ran pod updateafter ensuring I was using Ruby 2.5.0
Ran pod install
The pod file that I am currently using is:
# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '9.0'
target 'MyProject' do
# Uncomment the next line if you're using Swift or would like to use dynamic frameworks
# use_frameworks!
pod 'Firebase/Core'
pod 'Firebase/Database'
pod 'Firebase/Messaging'
target 'MyProjectTests' do
inherit! :search_paths
# Pods for testing
end
end
These are the versions that I am using:
"react": "^16.3.0-alpha.1",
"react-native": "0.54.2",
"react-native-firebase": "^3.3.1",
If you don't want to manually link, you can try installing RNFirebase as a pod install directly:
pod 'RNFirebase', :path => 'path/to/node_modules/react-native-firebase/ios'
Changing or hardcoding HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS did not help me. When the error recurs, it's not necessary to rm -rf node_modules nor delete the pod file etc, I found it useful to clear the cache.
I always prefer not to use pods with react native, however, the react-native-firebase's instructions for the non-pop installation will not work.
The reason for this is the package's search paths which assumes either /pods or /firebase
Hence, to make it link properly follow these steps:
download firebase sdk
make a folder directly under ios and call it Firebase, copy the frameworks needed of the sdk in that folder WITHOUT keeping the sub-folders (note, you have not entered XCode yet)
If you haven't already npm install -s react-native-firebase
Open XCode and drag and drop the desired frameworks to the Frameworks-folder in XCode (Eg. in my example the contents of the Analytics, Messaging and DynamicLinks folder). Do not copy items when asked as you already have then in the Firebase subfolder of ios:
In XCode right-click Libraries and select "Add files to [project]". Find RNFirebase-project in node_modules and select the RNFirebase.xcodeproj, do not "copy items"
In Project/Target settings go to Linked Frameworks and Libraries. Find and add libRNFirebase.a
In AppDelegate.m make adjustments as per the instructions from react-native-firebase, eg: import <Firebase.h> and [FIRAPP configure]; in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions
In Header Search Paths AND Framework Search Paths, add $(PROJECT_DIR)/Firebase
Don't forget to add you GoogleServices-Info.plist to your project
I had the same problem, while trying to fix it was making my app to crash on start up.
I moved it through the terminal under the ios/AppFolder/ but the Xcode was never aware of this file.
What helped me was to open my project in Xcode. Then left-click on my AppFolder > Add Files and then add the GoogleService-Info.plist.
I manually linked these react-native-firebase/* packages with
react-native link #react-native-firebase/xxx
"#react-native-firebase/analytics","#react-native-firebase/app","#react-native-firebase/auth","#react-native-firebase/crashlytics","#react-native-firebase/messaging"
which generated pod spec in pod and it worked.

React/RCTEventEmitter.h file not found

I am trying to implement PushNotificationIOS with a detached Expo app. I am running SDK 21.0.0 (React Native 0.48).
I am getting React/RCTEventEmitter file not found
I have completed the following steps:
Open my .xcworkspace project
Drag the RCTPushNotification.xcodeproj into my Libraries folder
Added libRCTPushNotification.a into App > Build Phases > Link Binary With Libraries
Added $(SRCROOT)/../node_modules/react-native/Libraries under Header Search Paths - I also tried without the /../. I have a bunch of Pods in the Header Search Paths list too.
I then added the following into AppDelegate.m but when I click through to the file (⌘ + click), I get a question mark.
#import <React/RCTPushNotificationManager.h>
If I change it to the below, it works, I can click through
#import "RCTPushNotificationManager.h"
However, this is my problem
When I clean and build my project, I get the below error in RCTPushNotificationManager.h to say:
'React/RCTEventEmitter.h' file not found
#Dan I have ran into this exact same issue, it also occurs for RCTLinking, and other libraries dependent on eventEmitter.h and a detached Expo project.
The issue turns out to be that RCTPushNotification doesn't have the reference to React from Cocoapods file React since Expo manages React in Cocoapods. So you should go into RCTPushNotification.xcodeproj then into Targets - RCTPushNotification Header Search Paths and add the link to "ios/Pods/Headers/Public/React" and set to recursive.
The easiest way to do the above is navigate to your iOS/Pods/Headers/Public/React and drag and drop the folder straight into build settings for header search paths like the below image.
Heads up finally after this you will have to reference ReactCommon/yoga most likely as well, ReactCommon/yoga however should be in your 'node_modules/react-native/ReactCommon/yoga'
This works for me on detached Expo project
"react": "16.6.3",
"react-native": "0.58.6",
Add 'RCTPushNotification' to your pod and run pod install
pod 'React', :path => '../node_modules/react-native', :subspecs => [
'RCTPushNotification',
]
Since nothing mentioned above worked for me, I started experimenting, and this is what solved it for me:
1. Link React-Core & Public
As mentioned by Escamilla, in xcode open the RCTPushNotification.xcodeproj and under Build Settings search for header search path and add there the 2 path:
"$(SRCROOT)/../../../../ios/Pods/Headers/Public"
"$(SRCROOT)/../../../../ios/Pods/Headers/Public/React-Core"
2. Copy RCTPushNotificationManager.h manually into React-Core
In the root folder of your project execute:
cp ./node_modules/react-native/Libraries/PushNotificationIOS/RCTPushNotificationManager.h ./ios/Pods/Headers/Public/React-Core/React
This will copy RCTPushNotificationManager.h wich is in node_modules/react-native/Libraries/PushNotificationIOS/ manually into the React folder which is in ios/Pods/Headers/Public/React-Core/React.
I have no idea if that is a good solution but it works. Maybe if someone could explain me why it was not in there in the first place? That would be golden.
I followed the setup instructions 1 by 1 very carefully doing everything right but nothing worked except the manual copy mentioned above…
Also, this is randomly resetted once in a while and has to be done again -.-'
Open up your project in XCode.
Open up the Libraries folder. You should see React.xcodeproj and several RCT*.xcodeproj.
Drag the React.xcodeproj into each of the other projects.
Click on each project and navigate to the Build Phases tab.
Click on Target Dependencies and add React as a target dependency
Just follow these steps:
create project react-native init project.
add this line to pod file in ios folder: pod 'React-RCTPushNotification', :path => '../node_modules/react-native/Libraries/PushNotificationIOS'
cd ios && pod install
cd .. && react-native run-ios
No need to do messy manual linking
Replace #import RCTEventEmitter.h or #import React/RCTEventEmitter.h with #import <React/RCTEventEmitter.h>
Its work for me
this worked for me!
add the missed lib manually
https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-code-push/issues/1565#issuecomment-489738672
USE those libraries:
https://github.com/zo0r/react-native-push-notification
https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-push-notification-ios
follow step by step,
everything will work
no need anything else
not forget to
pod install

How to convert framework in a cocapod?

I have create new cocoa-pod with an example project which in original project used a framework (X.framework).
So it was like:
Original_Proj
|- four Classes (A,B,C,D{.h,.m})
|-Main.m
|- etc by default xcode project files
|-X.framework
Now those four classes imported the X.framework and used its functionality. (Purpose being only few classes of framework exposed project).
========================================================================
Now in a xcworkspace created by cocoapod, i have added all the Four classes and other necc. files in EXAMPLE folder but now i want the X.framework to be as Development pod so i can import it in those Classes in cocoapod embed project.
Following is my Cocopod project structure
Now i wanted to ask whether i have to put the complete framework it self in Dev. pods folder OR all X.framework's source files in Dev. pods folder. Will it expose those files to others if they install the pod in their project? Please guide with proper way if I am doing something wrong? Detail explanation would be really appreciated.
Remove that pod. follow the below steps
1) Open terminal
2) sudo gem install cocoapods (gem will get installed in Ruby inside
System library)
3) pod setup
4) create a xcode project
5) cd "path to your project root directory"
6) pod init
7) open -a Xcode Podfile (podfile will get open in text mode. Initially it will be empty put the following line of code.)
8) pod frame_name veraion (It’s finally time to add your first dependency using CocoaPods! Copy and paste the following into your pod file, right after target "Project" do:)

Cocoapods Errors : Resource.sh not found

Folks,
Cocoapods : 0.39.0
FYI I have done enough research and I was able to take care of errors like:
Podfile.lock not found.
.menifest not found
and others while building my project.
Which still seem hack to me but as long as they let me build I dont care.
But one real problem is this :
Pod-resources.sh not found and this one is in the pod directory.
so for sure Its not in my source control as I dont check in pods dir into my project.
I have done more than enough weokspace deletion, podlock deletion, who pods dir deletion and pod install. but this problem is still there.
I am using apptentive which has a resource bundle, which need to be copied to the app binary.
At the moment I have disable Apptentive thru out the project to speed up the development and keep looking for solution.
Links that I have read are follows :
https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/2303
is from July 10, 2014 : seem too old to rely on.
CocoaPods Errors on Project Build
Error:"The sandbox is not in sync with the Podfile.lock..." after installing RestKit with cocoapods
The sandbox is not in sync with the Podfile.lock-ios
Error:"The sandbox is not in sync with the Podfile.lock..." after installing RestKit with cocoapods
How I solved my partial problem : delete workspace file, Pods Dir and .lock file. If this can help anybody.
Culprit was the path. It seem how Cocoapods is handling is different than earlier.
What it dont do is updating your project file for Copy Resources phase:
it seems they have update the path and now it has "/Target Support Files/Pods-ProjectName/" in it.
Older path: "${SRCROOT}/Pods/Pods-ProjectName-resources.sh"
New Path: "${SRCROOT}/Pods/Target Support
Files/Pods-projectName/Pods-Project-resources.sh"
So if you are having same errors like me you need to do is :
remove workspace file
remove .podlock file
remove .menifest file
do Pod install
update the path in build phase in xcode project file as shown above.
Now Build the project/workspace
Hope this will save someone's time.
You might have to add a PODS_ROOT user-defined build setting, as described here.

How to ignore untracked files when using CocoaPods?

I have a simple project and wanted to include a third party library (CocoaLumberjack) using CocoaPods. After creating the simple Podfile I ran pod install in my project directory. Everything worked fine, except I now have untracked files in my project that are marked with question marks in Xcode:
Is this how it's supposed to be? I don't remember having these question marks when I last used CocoaPods in a different project. Shouldn't CocoaPods automatically set up the correct gitignores for the pods?
CocoaPods doesn't do anything with your .gitignore.
I recommend using GitHub's Objective-C .gitignore (at least as a starting point). Alternatively, just make sure you ignore the Pods directory by adding an entry for Pods in your ignore file:
# CocoaPods
Pods
