I would like to use a modify version of stripe_ios library in flutter_stripe library to include a missing functionality I added.
for that I downloaded both libraries and copy them inside a packages directory of my flutter app.
then inside pubspec.yaml I declared the library like that:
flutter_stripe:
path: packages/stripe
then in flutter_stripe library folder I edited stripe_ios/ios/stripe_ios.podspec to make Stripe library reference point to my modified version:
Pod::Spec.new do |s|
s.name = 'stripe_ios'
s.version = '0.0.1'
s.summary = 'A new flutter plugin project.'
s.description = <<-DESC
A new flutter plugin project.
DESC
s.homepage = 'http://example.com'
s.license = { :file => '../LICENSE' }
s.author = { 'Your Company' => 'email#example.com' }
s.source = { :path => '.' }
s.source_files = 'Classes/**/*'
s.dependency 'Flutter'
s.dependency 'Stripe'
s.subspec 'Stripe' do |ss|
ss.source_files = '../../library/StripeIos/Stripe'
end
s.platform = :ios, '11.0'
# Flutter.framework does not contain a i386 slice.
s.pod_target_xcconfig = { 'DEFINES_MODULE' => 'YES', 'EXCLUDED_ARCHS[sdk=iphonesimulator*]' => 'i386' }
s.swift_version = '5.0'
end
But it seems it's not working correctly and when I do pod install from ios folder it seems to download version 21.13.0 of Stripe ios library instead.
any idea how to achieve this correctly ?
I am trying to include .a files on the iOS side of the plugin. Below is my file structure.
Now when I try to add .a files via vendored_libraries on podspec, pod install is successfully completed. And when I compile the code, I get Library Not Found -lAccuraFace
I tried to add the .a file on the Link Binary With Libraries section on the build phase on the Pod target. It's still the same, how can I define the podspec in such a way that the .a file is included and linked automatically.
Here is my podspec file for the plugin
Pod::Spec.new do |s|
s.name = 'accuraemirates'
s.version = '0.0.1'
s.summary = 'A new Flutter plugin.'
s.description = <<-DESC

s.dependency 'Flutter'
s.public_header_files = 'Classes/*{.h}'
s.private_header_files = 'Classes/CodeScan/**/*{.h,.cpp,.a}'
s.platform = :ios, '8.0'
s.preserve_paths = 'opencv2.framework'
s.xcconfig = {
'OTHER_LDFLAGS' => '-framework opencv2 -lAccuraFace',
}

s.pod_target_xcconfig = { 'DEFINES_MODULE' => 'YES', 'VALID_ARCHS[sdk=iphonesimulator*]' => 'x86_64' }
s.swift_version = '5.0'
end

Is it not possible to add/link .a libraries from podspec file on a flutter plugin.
Finally found the issue..
Pod::Spec.new do |s|
# other obvious values
s.source_files = 'Classes//*{.h,.a,.swift,.mm,.m,.hpp}'
s.resources = 'Resources//'
s.static_framework = true
s.public_header_files = "Classes/VideoCamera/VideoCameraWrapperDelegate.h", "Classes/VideoCamera/VideoCameraWrapper.h",'Classes/.h',
s.private_header_files = 'Classes/CodeScan//{.h,.cpp,.hpp}'
s.platform = :ios, '8.0'
s.preserve_paths = 'opencv2.framework', 'Classes/Framework/.a'
s.xcconfig = {
# here on LDFLAG, I had to set -l and then the library name (without lib prefix although the file name has it).
'OTHER_LDFLAGS' => '-framework opencv2 -lc++ -lAccuraFace -lAccuraEmirate -lDocRecog -lz',
'USER_HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS' => '"${PROJECT_DIR}/.."/',
"LIBRARY_SEARCH_PATHS" => '"${PROJECT_DIR}/.."/*',
}
s.vendored_frameworks = 'opencv2.framework' # Various framworks you need
# Here the name of the library can include lib as the file name has it too.
s.vendored_libraries = 'AccuraFace','libAccuraEmirate','libDocRecog'
end
Notice two values here OTHER_LDFLAGS and vendored_libraries. Although I have same file, they need names with and without lib prefix. Weird but worked.
You definitely CAN add .a libraries, try to check the following configuration path
TARGETS->Build Settings->Search Paths-> Library Search Paths
Right there, add path where .a library was located.
Here is a valid path configuration demo:
==========================================================================
UPDATE
For flutter plugin
As for ship as flutter plugin ,file with .a suffix is actually static library, here is a snippet for how to do it in a .podspec file:
s.subspec 'Core' do |sc|
sc.ios.library = 'z'
sc.frameworks = 'SystemConfiguration', 'QuartzCore', 'CoreText', 'WebKit'
sc.source_files = 'AppboyKit/headers/AppboyKitLibrary/*.h', 'AppboyKit/ABKIdentifierForAdvertisingProvider.m', 'AppboyKit/ABKModalWebViewController.m', 'AppboyKit/ABKNoConnectionLocalization.m', 'AppboyKit/ABKLocationManagerProvider.m'
sc.resource = 'AppboyKit/Appboy.bundle'
sc.vendored_libraries = 'AppboyKit/libAppboyKitLibrary.a'
sc.weak_framework = 'CoreTelephony', 'Social', 'Accounts', 'AdSupport', 'UserNotifications'
end
Pay attention to line start with sc.vendored_libraries there.Here is the complete source.
ios framework into flutter_plugin
import your Famework or library in both path => Flutter_Plugin/example/ios and Flutter_Plugin/ios .
IN Flutter_plugin/ios/flutter_plugin.podspec file
s.preserve_paths = 'YOUR_FRAMEWORK.framework'
s.xcconfig = { 'OTHER_LDFLAGS' => '-framework YOUR_FRAMEWORK' }
s.ios.vendored_frameworks = 'YOUR_FRAMEWORK.framework'
s.ios.vendored_libraries = 'YOUR_FRAMEWORK'
make your framework embeded and signin in xcode(Flutter_Plugin/example/ios).
!sometimes in DerivedData/.../debug_iphone/flutter_plugin.framework - its not there so make that Flutter_plugin.framework move to that debug_iphone folder , it inside the flutter_plugin folder.
I am trying to develop a Flutter plugin for the Tapkey Mobile SDK.
I managed to add their SDK by modifying the podspec of the plugin and the Podfile of the example:
tapkey.podspec:
Pod::Spec.new do |s|
s.name = 'tapkey'
s.version = '0.0.1'
s.summary = 'A tapkey flutter plugin'
s.description = <<-DESC
A tapkey flutter plugin
DESC
s.homepage = 'http://example.com'
s.license = { :file => '../LICENSE' }
s.author = { 'Your Company' => 'email#example.com' }
s.source = { :path => '.' }
s.source_files = 'Classes/**/*'
s.dependency 'Flutter'
s.platform = :ios, '9.0'
s.dependency 'TapkeyMobileLib', '~> 2.5.10.0'
s.static_framework = true
# Flutter.framework does not contain a i386 slice. Only x86_64 simulators are supported.
s.pod_target_xcconfig = { 'DEFINES_MODULE' => 'YES', 'VALID_ARCHS[sdk=iphonesimulator*]' => 'x86_64' }
s.swift_version = '5.0'
end
Podfile:
platform :ios, '9.0'
source 'https://github.com/tapkey/TapkeyCocoaPods'
source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
# unmodified Podfile
However, building the app fails with:

Could not build the precompiled application for the device.
I have looked at several similar GitHub issues, but could not solve the problem.
I have a workspace with 2 projects. The first project is base project. The second contains first project linked as framework.
How to write a podspec for second project? This is my podspec file:
Pod::Spec.new do |s|
s.name = "Core"
s.version = ...
s.summary = ...
s.description = ...
s.homepage = ...
s.license = { :type => "MIT", :file => "LICENSE.txt"}
s.author = ...
s.platform = ...
s.source = ...
s.source_files = ...
s.dependency 'RxSwift', '~> 3.0.0'
s.dependency 'RxCocoa', '~> 3.0'
s.dependency 'ObjectMapper'
s.dependency 'Moya', '8.0.0-beta.5'
s.dependency 'Moya/RxSwift'
s.dependency 'MTDates'
s.dependency 'CryptoSwift'
s.subspec 'Child' do |cinema|
cinema.source_files = ...
cinema.resources = ...
cinema.frameworks = "Core"
end
end
But when I tried to lint it, I got the error "no such module 'Core'"
I'm currently trying to create a pod for the first time that contains several dependencies.
The pods I'm currently including in my pod are as follows
FacebookCore
FacebookLogin
Fabric
TwitterKit
Google/SignIn
LinkedinSwift
My podspec file looks like this
Pod::Spec.new do |s|
s.platform = :ios
s.ios.deployment_target = '8.0'
s.name = "Socializin"
s.version = "0.0.1"
s.summary = "A short description of Socializin."
s.requires_arc = true
s.author = {"MyName" => "MyMail"}
s.homepage = "http://EXAMPLE/Socializin"
s.license = { :type => "MIT", :file => "LICENSE" }
s.source = { :git => "", :tag => "#{s.version}"}
s.framework = "UIKit"
s.dependency 'FacebookCore', '~> 0.2.0'
s.dependency 'FacebookLogin', '~> 0.2.0'
s.dependency 'FacebookShare', '~> 0.2.0'
s.dependency 'Fabric', '~> 1.6.11'
s.dependency 'TwitterKit', '~> 2.8.1'
s.dependency 'Google/SignIn', '~> 3.0.3'
s.dependency 'LinkedinSwift', '~> 1.7.4'
s.source_files = "Socializin/**/*.{swift}"
#s.resources = "Socializin/**/*.{png,jpeg,jpg,storyboard,xib}"
end
But the dependencies give me the following error
[!] The 'Pods-socializinTest' target has transitive dependencies that include static binaries: (/Users/x/projects/x/Examples/socializinTest/Pods/Fabric/iOS/Fabric.framework, /Users/x/projects/x/Examples/socializinTest/Pods/Google/Frameworks/GGLCore.framework, and /Users/x/projects/x/Examples/socializinTest/Pods/Google/Frameworks/GGLSignIn.framework)
Is there anyway to make sure it does work? All I want to do is create a pod that will make it easy to use all those services and being able to add more to it whenever needed.
I hope you are still looking for a solution.
This is what i did:
I put the Google SignIn framework under /Dependency/GoogleDependency
And i put the TwitterKit, TwitterCore and Fabric frameworks under /Dependency/TwitterDependency/
