Build Failed: Cocoapods

This is the related error message that appears in the log:

8456: + Installing cocoapods:
8457: /BUILD_PATH/.mason/buildpacks/xcode/bin/compile: line 156: pod: command not found

The build fails shortly after this appears. Any help would by much appreciated!

 

Thanks, that fixed that issue with my build. Unfortunately it fell at a new hurdle:

[xcode] /BUILD_PATH/jack-3368286.dotstopper1.default-ios/temp.wcbUDG/Libraries/Plugins/iOS/GADURequest.m:4:9: fatal error: module 'GoogleMobileAds' not found

Not sure if I need to point it towards the GoogleMobileAds module or something else entirely...

 

Thanks, I'll check that out

 

hello @dannyd still getting this error:

Unity] Player export failed. Reason: 'pod' command not found; unable to generate a usable Xcode project. You can install cocoapods with the Ruby gem package manager:
381: ! build of 'mermaid-match' failed. compile failed

seems it's outdated, updated it on my mac and it builds. The reason is GoogleMobileAds new version needs it updated?

 

Hi Danny,

Any timeframe for changing that? In the macOS & iOS development ecosystems, this is a pretty huge deal.

cheers!

 

Probably the most common ones on iOS right now are Alamofire, SwiftyJSON, & SocketRocket, but there are a ton of others. I haven't worked on a single iOS app in the last few years that didn't use Cocoapods in some capacity (usually several). Integrating 3rd-party frameworks manually isn't impossible, but it's a huge PITA in a community that long ago moved past doing all of that manually.

 

@dannyd just ran into the same issue and I can't seem to find a Podfile. The only plugin in my project is GoogleMobileAds.

Has anyone had success adding GoogleMobileAds Framework postbuild?

 

all firebase libraries are working correctly with unity 4.x if tuned correctly and cocoa pods library is used, but it wont work if binded to cloud build or if their package ver higher than 3.0.0 is used (it now requires unity 5.3 and higher) for instance

BUT the main thing to consider here is if cloud build doesnt support using xcodeworkspace project(could be used 1 setting xcodeproject (default) or build from xcodeworkspace) then NO pod libraries could be used at all.

 

I´ve created a topic about firebase exclusively, and it is cocoa pods fault as well :/ Been more than a year since the last response from someone in Unity in this topic, seems like pods still aren´t working.

 

Sigh, dealing with Firebase and whatever this cocoapods thing is.

Seems like everytime I get back to iOS development, there's some new thing that breaks everything else.

 

Also using Firebase with cocoa pods, you can manually add frameworks I suppose, but, sigh Unity.

Does anyone else remember when libraries came as a lib file and a bunch of headers and you just had to figure it out yourself? Sometimes the name mangling wouldn't match. Sometimes other things went wrong. Sometimes compilers used different calling conventions. But that was easier than figuring out how to un-aaar the git tar pod framework postprocess cmake gradle jenkins nuget workspace package wibble...

 

With Native support for Google VR SDK ("Cardboard" really) Unity produces a project that explicitly uses cocoapods to resolve some of the Google dependencies.

Frankly that the whole native VR support is a mess right now, but currently the Unity Editor is generating a scenario itself that UCB can't support.

But, I'd really rather it not use cocoapods (the worlds slowest dependency manager), personally.

 

Hi Danny,
is there any update regarding the cocoa pods?

Thanks

 

I have integrated firebase and trying to get cloud build but its keep getting failed because of cocopod integration...

Taking build with workspace manually works fine. But in cloud, its searching for xcode project rather than workspace ? is that the reason for failure ?

Any workaround for this ?

 

@kripa1415 As far as I can tell from all responses in the forum, there is no way to get an iOS Unity project with Firebase building using Cloud Build. You'll have to wait for them to get Cocoapods working, or come up with another workaround. Post #19 directly above yours is still the latest news we have. I also have a support ticket open with Firebase on the issue but I expect that it won't produce any useful results.

 

Has anyone tried this solution? I have tried but without success, would like to know if this method solves any of your issues.

 

Hi @jcion ,
I finally make a workaround to use Cloud Build + Firebase, I'm just waiting a response and then I'll post here the steps, if it's not off topic.

 

Please do share -- Seems pretty on-topic to me!

 

Hi @Ethan_VisualVocal ,
you can check the instructions here, I'll post more detailed explanation tomorrow.

 

Out of interest, did you build a simple Firebase Auth+Database (and possibly Firebase analytics, but Unity Analytics + Raw Data Export is actually better...) project with UCB to test this? In practice, Firebase Auth+DB seem to account for the overwhelming majority of cocoapods-related (and Google JAR resolution mayhem) questions.

 

Great news! Gonna test it and give a feedback.

 

hi guys, has the issue been resolved yet ? Or is there any update on building Firebase using cocoapods on Unity Cloud Build ?

 

@Taggler See #26. It should work as of a year ago.

 

It definitely works in 2017.4.

I haven't tested 2018.x because we don't use it for production development.

 

2017 4.13f ,Unity IOS framework addition failed due to a Cocoapods installation failure.
Can not find any solution to fix this .

 

Hi~ how to do the project using cocoapod on Unity Cloud Build? Andy Idea?

 

Hi , Where to add cocoapods on Cloud Build ? I can not find it

 

Hi @Jeremy-Lv,
I've been using Cloud Build with Firebase, which uses cocoapods, for a while. Perhaps checking out how firebase create the xCode solution?
