Flipper: Unable to install Pods on iOS (React Native)

[paschaldev]

🐛 Bug Report

I've followed the guidelines for setting up flipper with iOS for React Native, but after running pod install, it failsw with this error

[!] CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "FlipperKit/SKIOSNetworkPlugin":
  In Podfile:
    FlipperKit/SKIOSNetworkPlugin (~> 0.25)

None of your spec sources contain a spec satisfying the dependency: `FlipperKit/SKIOSNetworkPlugin (~> 0.25)`.

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 * out-of-date source repos which you can update with `pod repo update` or with `pod install --repo-update`.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.

To Reproduce

ios/Podfile

platform :ios, '9.0'
require_relative '../node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-ios/native_modules'

def flipper_pods()
  flipperkit_version = '0.25'
  pod 'FlipperKit', '~>' + flipperkit_version, :configuration => 'Debug'
  pod 'FlipperKit/FlipperKitLayoutPlugin', '~>' + flipperkit_version, :configuration => 'Debug'
  pod 'FlipperKit/SKIOSNetworkPlugin', '~>' + flipperkit_version, :configuration => 'Debug'
  pod 'FlipperKit/FlipperKitUserDefaultsPlugin', '~>' + flipperkit_version, :configuration => 'Debug'
end

# Post Install processing for Flipper
def flipper_post_install(installer)
  installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
    if target.name == 'YogaKit'
      target.build_configurations.each do |config|
        config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = '4.1'
      end
    end
  end
  file_name = Dir.glob("*.xcodeproj")[0]
  app_project = Xcodeproj::Project.open(file_name)
  app_project.native_targets.each do |target|
    target.build_configurations.each do |config|
      cflags = config.build_settings['OTHER_CFLAGS'] || '$(inherited) '
      unless cflags.include? '-DFB_SONARKIT_ENABLED=1'
        puts 'Adding -DFB_SONARKIT_ENABLED=1 in OTHER_CFLAGS...'
        cflags << '-DFB_SONARKIT_ENABLED=1'
      end
      config.build_settings['OTHER_CFLAGS'] = cflags
    end
    app_project.save
  end
  installer.pods_project.save
end

Expected Behavior

Able to install the pods correctly

Environment

OS: MacOS Mojave
React Native: 0.61.2

Sorry, my fault for not reading instructions. It was resolved with pod repo update

[aleclarson]

@paschaldev What instructions? I tried pod repo update but pod install still fails.

Analyzing dependencies
Fetching podspec for `Flipper` from `../Flipper.podspec`
[!] CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "Flipper-RSocket":
  In Podfile:
    Flipper (from `../Flipper.podspec`) was resolved to 0.29.3, which depends on
      Flipper-RSocket (~> 1.0)

    Flipper-RSocket (~> 0.10)

Specs satisfying the `Flipper-RSocket (~> 0.10), Flipper-RSocket (~> 1.0)` dependency were found, but they required a higher minimum deployment target.

• Flipper v0.29.3

@aleclarson You can try updating your cocoapods binary to the latest then run pod repo update again.
