Reachability.swift: DSL Error with Cocoapods 1.0.0.beta.4

[bclymer]

Podfile (simplified a bit)

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
use_frameworks!
platform :ios, '8.0'

pod 'ReachabilitySwift', git: 'https://github.com/ashleymills/Reachability.swift'

I receive

[!] Unable to find a specification for 'ReachabilitySwift'.

[!] Unable to load a podspec from `ReachabilitySwift.podspec`, skipping:

Pod::DSLError

I _just_ upgraded to 1.0.0.beta.4, and everything was working for in 0.39.0, so I guess their required format changed?

[felipeplets]

Same thing here.
@bclymer do you found the issue or any workaround?

[bclymer]

@felipeplets I ended up just including Reachability.swift in my project directly, and no longer using the pod.

I will likely go back to using the pod once this is fixed though, just for the automatic updates.

Same, I'm guessing the podspec DSL changed since it was written for this project.

same here with beta 5

Still an issue for 1.0.0.beta.6.

I tried running pod spec create "https://github.com/ashleymills/Reachability.swift" because passing a github url is supposed to pre-populate the generated podspec, but got:

[!] Unable to fetch data for `ashleymills/Reachability`

[!] Request to https://api.github.com/repos/ashleymills/Reachability failed - 404

[!] Not Found

Same exact message when I tried with pod spec create https://github.com/ashleymills/Reachability.swift/tree/cf126c0584a209143c75bf1d0f23fd904891e26e.

So apparently the ".swift" at the end of this repo name is being dropped with that command, not sure if it's related.

Attached is the blank .podspec file that you get when running pod spec create example with version 1.0.0.beta.6 (appended ".txt" so I could upload it here).

Same error here, using: CocoaPods 1.0.0.beta.6 with XCode 7.3

Same issue here with CocoaPods 1.0.0.beta.6 | ruby 2.0.0p648 | XCode 7.3

Running pod spec lint ReachabilitySwift.podspec yields:

Same issue with CocoaPods 1.0.0.beta.7 | Ruby 2.0.0p648 | Xcode 7.3

[evermeer]

I downgraded to cocoapods 0.39 and I still get the same error

[nerdsupremacist]

I still get this problem! Any way around it without including Reachability into the project directly?

[hw-credeo]

pod 'ReachabilitySwift'

Works with 1.0.0

[ashleymills]

Now works with Cocoapods 1.0
