CocoaPods: Unable to find a specification for `TestFlightSDK (= 3.0.0)`

Question

I'm trying to do

pod install

and I get the following error:

[!] Unable to find a specification for TestFlightSDK (= 3.0.0)

I tried

pod update

and I get the same error:

[!] Unable to find a specification for TestFlightSDK (= 3.0.0)

Why is this occurring?

I tried the following and still getting error:

pod repo remove master

pod setup

I also did a

$pod repo list

and got:

master - Type: git (master)

- URL: https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git

- Path: /Users/myUser/.cocoapods/repos/master

I then did a

$ pod search TestFlightSDK

and it could not the pod:

[!] Unable to find a pod with name matching `TestFlightSDK'

我自己回答这个问题，直到我看到一个更好的答案：根据以下文章， Testflight关闭并与iTunes连接合并，或者您可以直接在Apple阅读 。

Answer 2

This pod is related to the old TestFlight, which was shut down after it's aquisition by Apple.

If you check the pod's page on cocoapods.org at https://cocoapods.org/?q=TestFlightSDK you can see that the Homepage links to http://www.testflightapp.com/ , which is the old TestFlight website and is now redirected to Apple's new TestFlight intro site.

Additionally if you try to open the See Podspec link ( https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs/blob/master/Specs/TestFlightSDK/3.0.2/TestFlightSDK.podspec.json ) it's now a GitHub 404 page.

The new, Apple TestFlight service does not have an SDK yet.
