Cocoapods Install
Runs the CocoaPods install command for dependency management. This step installs all pod dependencies. Appcircle uses the pod install command to install pods in the project. This command comes from the CocoaPods tool installed on the system. If a version is not specified for CocoaPods, this step will use the version of CocoaPods installed on the system.
Prerequisites
The workflow steps that need to be executed before running the Cocoapods Install workflow step, along with their respective reasons, are listed in the table below.
| Prerequisite Workflow Step | Description |
|---|---|
| Git Clone | The repo needs to be cloned in order to start the CocoaPods installation process. After the clone, CocoaPods will be installed. After this step works, the variable AC_REPOSITORY_DIR will be created. |
Input Variables
You can find all the parameters required for this step in the table below, with their descriptions in detail.
| Variable Name | Description | Status |
|---|---|---|
$AC_PROJECT_PATH | Specifies the project path. For example: ./appcircle.xcodeproj. If you filled in Configuration => Project or Workspace, this variable comes from Configuration. | Required |
$AC_REPOSITORY_DIR | Specifies the cloned repository directory. This path will be generated after the Git Clone step. | Required |
$AC_COCOAPODS_VERSION | Specifies the CocoaPods version. If there is a specific version you want to use, give it here as hardcoded, and the system will automatically install the given version. | Optional |
Please note that the CocoaPods Install step uses the default system CocoaPods version. If you want to use a specific version, please enter it hardcoded in the CocoaPods Version parameter in the step.
Remember, if the project extension is not .xcworkpace, the pod install step will not work as expected. In the Configuration tab, make sure that the extension in the project path is .xcworkspace.
