Resolving dependencies of `Podfile`

[!] CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "Firebase/Analytics":
  In snapshot (Podfile.lock):
    Firebase/Analytics (= 6.1.0, ~> 6.1.0)

  In Podfile:
    Firebase/Analytics (~> 6.1.0)

None of your spec sources contain a spec satisfying the dependencies: `Firebase/Analytics (~> 6.1.0), Firebase/Analytics (= 6.1.0, ~> 6.1.0)`.

You have either:
 * out-of-date source repos which you can update with `pod repo update` or with `pod install --repo-update`.
 * mistyped the name or version.
 * not added the source repo that hosts the Podspec to your Podfile.

Note: as of CocoaPods 1.0, `pod repo update` does not happen on `pod install` by default.

Update ==================== >
it looks the plugin conflicts in somehow with

• cordova-support-google-services

• cordova-plugin-firebase-inappmessaging

• cordova-plugin-google-analytics

when i remove the above plugins and then installed firebasex again, the build finished but with errors in pods, however i opened the xcode and build it from there it did work. not sure what shall i do next to build the project using cordova cmd line

[abomadi]

@dpa99c any idea mate ?

[sagrawal31]

Can you first remove other 3 plugins and then try building it again.

[abomadi]

@sagrawal31 now i have this
> cordova build ios Overwriting existing resource file at platforms/ios/TransformMe/Resources/GoogleService-Info.plist Preparing Firebase on iOS
and it stops building

[dpa99c]

@abomadi have you (as documented) run pod repo update in platforms/ios? Then run pod install again

[abomadi]

@dpa99c Yes Sir, without any success, however when it reaches Preparing Firebase on iOS i still can build the app after that from xcode correctly

[dpa99c]

I've published a new version of the plugin - v6.1.0 - please regression test with that version.

If you still encounter problems in your project, please try building the example project to validate your build environment and rule out other causes in your project such as conflict with other plugins.

[abomadi]

@dpa99c Many thanks for the huge time and support you are giving here, i confirm the newer version is working with the phone being attached or not.

But for the record i have found a detailed error coming now from cordova-plugin-youtube-video-player along side with firebasex that breaks the build. below is the error details just for reference

[coreyroth]

I've been running into this error today as well with 6.1.0 in one one my projects. The sample project does install and build iOS for me ok though. That means it's something specific to my project but I have no idea what. I've removed my platforms, tried the pod commands and I've removed every plugin I have to see if there is a conflict. Looking at my versions, they are very similar to the example up there. I'm building from Catalina but like I said the sample project works fine. I'm not sure what to try next.

[Crypt0Graphic]

I had this error when i had installed cordova-plugin-firebase-dynamiclinks. Then i found a workaround and updated pplatforms/ios/podfiles as:

pod 'Firebase/Analytics', '~> 6.13.0'
pod 'Firebase/DynamicLinks', '~> 6.13.0'

Then it's ok. I could install and build FirebaseX. Be careful about versions in podfile.

[dd-stoyanova]

go to platforms/ios directory
run the command
pod install --repo-update
