Integrating pods with all targets

Question

I have been using CocoaPods for a few weeks now with my iOS app and it works perfectly with the one target I have been testing (let\'s call it \"MainApp\"). However, I now w

Answer 1

If you have large number of targets and don't want to add new target each time, you can use this

def common_pods

   pod 'TTTAttributedLabel', '~> 1.7.0'
   pod 'iRate', '~> 1.7.5'
   pod 'MBProgressHUD', '~> 0.6'
   pod 'FlurrySDK', '~> 4.2.3'
   pod 'ACSimpleKeychain', '~> 0.0.1'
   pod 'WEPopover', '~> 0.0.1'
   pod 'AFNetworking', '~> 1.3.1'
   pod 'Nimbus', '~> 1.0.0'
   pod 'QuincyKit', '~> 2.1.9'

end

project = Xcodeproj::Project.open “./<projectNameHere>.xcodeproj"

project.targets.each do |t|

target t.name do

    common_pods

end

For CocoaPods 1.0.0, recommendation from devs is using abstract_target (but not compatible with 0.39.0):

platform :ios, '5.0'

abstract_target 'defaults' do
    pod 'TTTAttributedLabel', '~> 1.7.0'
    pod 'iRate', '~> 1.7.5'
    pod 'MBProgressHUD', '~> 0.6'
    pod 'FlurrySDK', '~> 4.2.3'
    pod 'ACSimpleKeychain', '~> 0.0.1'
    pod 'WEPopover', '~> 0.0.1'
    pod 'AFNetworking', '~> 1.3.1'
    pod 'Nimbus', '~> 1.0.0'
    pod 'QuincyKit', '~> 2.1.9'

    target 'MyApp'
    target 'MyAppLite'
end

For CocoaPods 0.39.0 + 1.0.0 compatibility, using def works fine (but isn't recommended by devs):

platform :ios, '5.0'

def default_pods
    pod 'TTTAttributedLabel', '~> 1.7.0'
    pod 'iRate', '~> 1.7.5'
    pod 'MBProgressHUD', '~> 0.6'
    pod 'FlurrySDK', '~> 4.2.3'
    pod 'ACSimpleKeychain', '~> 0.0.1'
    pod 'WEPopover', '~> 0.0.1'
    pod 'AFNetworking', '~> 1.3.1'
    pod 'Nimbus', '~> 1.0.0'
    pod 'QuincyKit', '~> 2.1.9'
end

target 'MyApp' do
    default_pods
end

target 'MyAppLite' do
    default_pods
end

Answer 3

With CocoaPods 1.x

You can use the target blocks

platform :ios, '13.0'


def default_pods
    pod 'TTTAttributedLabel', '~> 1.7.0'
    pod 'iRate', '~> 1.7.5'
    pod 'MBProgressHUD', '~> 0.6'
    pod 'FlurrySDK', '~> 4.2.3'
    pod 'ACSimpleKeychain', '~> 0.0.1'
    pod 'WEPopover', '~> 0.0.1'
    pod 'AFNetworking', '~> 1.3.1'
    pod 'Nimbus', '~> 1.0.0'
    pod 'QuincyKit', '~> 2.1.9'
end

target 'MyApp' do
  default_pods
end

target 'MyAppLite' do
  default_pods
end

Answer 4

From the docs:

If no explicit target is specified, then the Pods target will be linked with the first target in your project.

You can use link_with to link with further targets.

Also see Multiple Targets in the Cocoapods documentation if you need different dependency configurations for different targets
