使用cocoapods for Firebase的React-native共享扩展问题

Question

I'm trying to implement a share extension with a firebase-based app. So I have created a pod file and generated a .xcworkspace project.

I'm using [react-native-share-extension][1]. Followed all installation tutorial and all seem ok, but when I try to launch the extension Xcode console says:

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'.

This is my pod file:

target 'Together' do
  # Pods for Together
  pod 'Firebase/Core'
  pod 'Firebase/Auth'
  pod 'Firebase/Firestore'
  pod 'Firebase/Messaging'
  pod 'Firebase/Storage'

  pod "QBImagePickerController"

end

target 'TogetherShareEx' do

  # Pods for TogetherShareEx
  pod 'Firebase/Core'
  pod 'Firebase/Auth'
  pod 'Firebase/Firestore'
  pod 'Firebase/Storage'

end

And this my TogetherShareEx.m:

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import "ReactNativeShareExtension.h"
#import <React/RCTBundleURLProvider.h>
#import <React/RCTRootView.h>
#import <React/RCTLog.h>
#import <Firebase.h>

@interface TogetherShareEx : ReactNativeShareExtension
@end

@implementation TogetherShareEx

RCT_EXPORT_MODULE();

- (UIView*) shareView {

  NSURL *jsCodeLocation;

  [FIRApp configure];

  jsCodeLocation = [[RCTBundleURLProvider sharedSettings] jsBundleURLForBundleRoot:@"index" fallbackResource:nil];

  RCTRootView *rootView = [[RCTRootView alloc] initWithBundleURL:jsCodeLocation
                                                      moduleName:@"TogetherShareEx"
                                               initialProperties:nil
                                                   launchOptions:nil];
  rootView.backgroundColor = nil;

  return rootView;
}

@end

I have also added these:

• added '$(inherited)' in Other Linker Flags
• added '$(SRCROOT)/../node_modules/react-native-firebase/ios/RNFirebase' in Header Search Paths

The result is that extension is created but when I try to share something, nothing happens. On Debugging the extension with Xcode the log shows the error shown above.

Any idea? Thanks

I was able to get this working after following the standard installation instructions, make sure you do the following:

1. Link libRNFirebase.a in your Extension's Build Phases. Also, make sure that libPods-{YOUR_EXTENSION_NAME}.a is linked as well.
2. Set the GoogleService-Info.plist target for both your main app and your share extension in the right panel.
3. In your share extension's Build Settings > Other Linker Flags, make sure you add $(inherited)
4. In your Share Extension .m file, make sure you import Firebase and configure it there as well!
