Kiwi and CocoaPods with a static shared library

Question

I have a workspace with 3 projects:

• MyApp
• Common
• Pods

Common is a common library that MyApp depends on. I\'d like to setup Coc

Answer 1

You could hack a solution that may get broken again, or better yet as Common is your library, start using CocoaPods for your Common library as well.

It will show up as a local "Dvelopment Pod", which means that you can directly edit the library code as well.

To begin easily just create a Common.podspec at the root folder:

$ pod lib create Common

Then just edit the minimum required parameters, such as platform, source_files, requires_arc and dependency if any.

You can take a look at how your library looks as you change it (and compare it to what you had with your manually created Common library):

$ pod lib lint --no-clean Common.podspec

Finally remove the no-longer needed Common from your workspace and add this to your Podfile:

pod 'Common', :path => '../Relative/Path/To/CommonSources/'

It will take you no more than 30 minutes and you'll learn many things in the process.

Next you could take a look at making private pod repositories.
