Unable to find a specification for 'Pod'

Question

My goal is to make the "CleanroomLogger" available as a Pod. I haven't hosted/made a pod before and this is my first attempt. Pardon me if I ask a obvious question.

I have tried search this forum for potential answers and I haven't found that solves my problem in particular or may be I am something.

Below are links to the Podspec and the source for the Pod.

Link for the source code is: https://github.com/vikramhimanshu/CleanroomLogger Link for the Podspec: https://github.com/vikramhimanshu/CleanroomLoggerPodspec

platform :ios, '10.0'

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
source 'https://github.com/vikramhimanshu/CleanroomLoggerPodspec.git'

abstract_target 'Eify' do

    use_frameworks!

    pod 'CleanroomLogger', :git => 'https://github.com/vikramhimanshu/CleanroomLogger.git'

    target '<Name>' do

    end

    target '<Name2>' do

    end

    target '<Name3>' do

    end

end

Response on terminal:

I tried without the source as well but its the same. I have a hunch I'm missing something very minor, but unable to find what!!

Your time and help is much appreciated here.

Answer 1

There is a great blog for creating Cocoapods. Follow this guide . Hope this will help you.

pod lib create will actually help give you a jump start by providing a standard directory structure with a bunch of boilerplate files necessary for a high-quality pod. pod lib create isn't the only way to create your pod, but it is the easiest.

Answer 2

The source line should be a spec repo, not a link to your source repo. See the instructions here for setting up a private spec repo.

Alternatively, you can test by pointing the pod directly to a podspec -

pod 'CleanroomLogger', :podspec => '/local/path/to/podspec'
