Access Resources in pod

Question

I would like to include image assets in a cocoapod library, but I\'m having trouble accessing them. I\'ve read these resources for help:

This tripped me up too. Maybe I'm misunderstanding +bundleWithIdentifier:, but I don't think you can use it to get to a resource bundle inside of your iOS app bundle. See the "Getting Bundles by Identifier" section of the bundle docs for more details.

What does work is +bundleWithPath:, e.g.:

NSString *bundlePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"MyResourceBundle" ofType:@"bundle"];
NSBundle *bundle = [NSBundle bundleWithPath:bundlePath];

I wrapped that inside of a dispatch_once block and call it any time I need to access this bundle.

I'm using the s.resource_bundles syntax in my podspec as well and this works fine with it.
