Tipsi-stripe: ld: library not found for -lStripe

[apolishch]

I have followed the manual installation instructions as listed in the README (added TPSStripe.xcodeproj to Libraries, etc) and run react-native link as well as react-native link tipsi-stripe (succesfully I might add)

However when I run react-native run-ios, or build with xcode I get:

ld: library not found for -lStripe
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)



** BUILD FAILED **


The following build commands failed:
    Ld build/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/myApp.app/myApp normal x86_64
(1 failure)

Hi @apolishch, show me your Podfile. Also did you install Stripe pod?

[apolishch]

I did not install stripe directly, I instead followed the manual installation instructions from the Readme:

https://github.com/tipsi/tipsi-stripe#manual

having said that, the following is the contents of my podfile (in its entirety):

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
# platform :ios, '9.0'

target 'flockCover' do
  pod 'Stripe', '~> 10.1.0'
  inherit! :search_paths
end

[isnifer]

@apolishch anyway, there is a Cocoapods section

[isnifer]

@apolishch Please, follow this guide and tell me result :)

[apolishch]

@isnifer I didn't end up having to change the podfile at all (it was already correct as pasted above)
I ran cd ios && pod install
It installed succesfully:

pod install
Analyzing dependencies
Downloading dependencies
Using Stripe (10.1.0)
Generating Pods project
Integrating client project
Sending stats
Pod installation complete! There is 1 dependency from the Podfile and 1 total pod installed.

[!] Automatically assigning platform ios with version 8.0 on target myApp because no platform was specified. Please specify a platform for this target in your Podfile. See `https://guides.cocoapods.org/syntax/podfile.html#platform`.

I wasn't sure what the instruction to "drag the folder in " meant so I right clicked on my project, selected Add files to "myApp", and then selected the folder specified (node_modules/tipsi-stripe/ios/TPSStripe)

I then ran react-native run-ios and had the same result - ld: library not found for -lStripe

Also, thanks so much for taking the time to help me debug what I strongly suspect is just a stupid error on my part somewhere.

[isnifer]

@apolishch you're welcome! Please, find in ios folder file %YOUR_PROJECT_NAME%.xcworkspace and open it. Try to run project via xcode and tell me result

[isnifer]

@apolishch hmmm, please remove ios/build folder and try to run again, tell me result

[apolishch]

@isnifer
same result :/

interestingly on CircleCi the build still fails, but with a different error:

/Users/distiller/flock-react-app/node_modules/tipsi-stripe/ios/TPSStripe/TPSStripeManager.h:11:9: 'Stripe/Stripe.h' file not found

#import <Stripe/Stripe.h>
        ^


▸ Compiling TPSCardField.m

❌  /Users/distiller/flock-react-app/node_modules/tipsi-stripe/ios/TPSStripe/TPSCardField.h:10:9: 'Stripe/Stripe.h' file not found

#import <Stripe/Stripe.h>

Not sure if that is a different symptom of the same problem

[isnifer]

@apolishch As I can see on CircleCI pods didn't install.
So, on your local environment, please do:

rm -rf /Users/abrahampolishchuk/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/myApp-enjsbnsiwwzbxgcfkihfeqjuobll

In your project root:

rm -rf node_modules && npm i && react-native run-ios

Also, please tell me, did you check this step:
Double click the text to the right of Header Search Paths and verify that it has $(SRCROOT)/../../react-native/React as well as ${SRCROOT}/../../../ios/Pods/Headers/Public - if they aren't, then add them.

[apolishch]

@isnifer On localhost that had no effect. Adding cd ios && pod install on circleci does make circleci fail in the same way as localhost

[isnifer]

@apolishch you should care about cocoapods on CircleCI.

brew install cocoapods

for example, on your CI script

[isnifer]

@apolishch or like this - https://github.com/tipsi/tipsi-stripe/blob/master/.travis/before-install.sh#L37

[apolishch]

No effect:

Also, to answer your previous question:

Header Search path is set as:

$(SRCROOT)/../../../React
$(SRCROOT)/../../react-native/React
$(SRCROOT)/../../../ios/Pods/Headers/Public

[isnifer]

@apolishch ok, so I will create a repo with a clean installation. Will follow instructions for manual linking and we will check that project to find what wrong

[apolishch]

@isnifer Thanks so much! Is there anything else I can provide to help you debug this? Listing everything I can think of below

react-native -v
react-native-cli: 2.0.1
react-native: 0.42.3

package.json:

    "tipsi-stripe": "^3.2.0"

podfile is listed above
xcode version: 8.3.3
npm version: 4.2.0
node version: 7.9.0
pod --version: 1.2.1
OSX - 10.12.5

[isnifer]

@apolishch I want to stream video of installation to twitch, maybe you will see where you were wrong or I will found our mistake

[apolishch]

@isnifer that would be amazing.
I have a meeting with some a remote team at 2 UTC (in 3 minutes). What time were you thinking of doing this?

[isnifer]

@apolishch haha, me to! Ok, let's try in an hour!

[apolishch]

Perfect! Again, thank you so much for your help.

[isnifer]

You're welcome!

[isnifer]

@apolishch so, do you ready for streaming?

[apolishch]

yup. I've never actually used Twitch before. How is this going to work? You going to give me a link?

[isnifer]

@apolishch yep

[isnifer]

so @apolishch https://www.twitch.tv/tr3m0r1ty

[apolishch]

great! I'm in.

[isnifer]

@apolishch so, where did you wrong?

[apolishch]

I still don't know tbh. The one thing that jumps out at me is that I do not seem to have a libStripe.a even available

[isnifer]

@apolishch may be I can help you via skype call, or zoom. You will share screen - I will help you)

[apolishch]

That would be amazing! I am @ apolishch on Skype also

[apolishch]

or I can install zoom if you prefer

[isnifer]

@apolishch I will call you in skype)

[isnifer]

@apolishch is it works?

[apolishch]

Sorry had a retrospective to go to. I don't know. Will let you know shortly

[isnifer]

ok, thank you

[apolishch]

Thanks for all your help! It eventually just kind started working through react-native run-ios. The issue still occurs within XCode. This doesn't particularly bother me, at least not right now, as I can build through fastlane, and run through react-native without issue.

I will let you decide whether this should be closed or not.

[divsbhalala]

I am getting same error

[crawler]

Had same error, but realized that i worked in AppName.xcodeproj when should open AppName.xcworkspace. Hope it helps someone.

[divsbhalala]

Yes that's work for me as well

[ikhsanalatsary]

what's the difference *.xcodeproj with *.xcworkspace?

[densa]

@ikhsanalatsary

A workspace is an Xcode document that groups projects and other documents so you can work on them together. A workspace can contain any number of Xcode projects, plus any other files you want to include. In addition to organizing all the files in each Xcode project, a workspace provides implicit and explicit relationships among the included projects and their targets.

https://developer.apple.com/library/content/featuredarticles/XcodeConcepts/Concept-Workspace.html

CocoaPods, which automatically handles 3rd party libraries for you, uses workspaces. Therefore, you have to use them, too, when you use CocoaPods

[keithdmoore]

@crawler I want to buy you a cup of coffee or a beer! The workspace worked for me too! Thanks for posting!

[GituBojan]

Hey!

I have followed all steps and opened xcworkspace too. Unfortunately I get a bit different error:

ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/Users/XYX/Documents/ReactNative/appNative/ios/app'
ld: framework not found Stripe
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

The strange thing: my package etc. is called appNative and it looks for the app folder /ios. But there is of course only an appNative folder in /ios.

Thanks for your help!

[isnifer]

@GituBojan Hi! Did you install pods?

I installed pod again - no change - still same error
Step 3:
I deleted the pod folder and pod file and installed pod again - still same error
Step 4:
deleted pod folder and build folder. Cleaned before build - still same error.
Step 5:
checked all linkings etc. - still same error.

Thanks for your really fast answer! And help of course :)

@isnifer

[densa]

@GituBojan do you have appNative target in xcode?

[GituBojan]

@densa @isnifer
yes I have it. still not working.

I know it is for sure only about iOS configuration but I have compiled it on Android now and it works without problems. tomorrow I will continue searching for the POD issue.

[densa]

@GituBojan ok. If it your testing project and you can share it we can help find out issue

[GituBojan]

@isnifer @densa

I have now spent the last hours searching for my mistake. After several changes and rebuilds I decided to delete the iOS folder and generate it again with react-native upgrade. After cleaning all my libraries etc. before generating the iOS folder I was able to build the project..

Still don't know what the real issues was. There were for sure some issues with the linking. THanks anyways for your help! Now it is working :)

[vymallesh]

I have no idea why am i getting pod file error, when i started integrating Socket IO, earlier it was working fine.Finally ends up with the error says, ld: library not found for -lAWSCore.Any help would be appreciated.Attached those screenshots below..

[isnifer]

@vymallesh you need to add Stripe. See https://github.com/tipsi/tipsi-stripe/blob/master/example/ios/Podfile#L9

[vymallesh]

@isnifer

I have an issue with AWSCore, while installing Socket iO pod file, i am facing below issue.Are there any dependencies between AWSCore and Socket iO.Earlier in the first build i have added AWS Core, till now it's fine.Now in second build, i have a requirement with socket, i have started integrating Socket iO, now it started throwing errors, which are listed below.

1. AWSCore.h' file not found with include; use "quotes" instead -- Change it to angular brackets ("")
   2.Now it is throwing other error like, library not found for -lAWSCore.

Pod which you mentioned here, https://github.com/tipsi/tipsi-stripe/blob/master/example/ios/Podfile#L9 .It is something related to payment i guess.I have issue with AWS Core and Socket iO, no where i am using Stripe pod file which you mentioned.

[isnifer]

@vymallesh see @Gribadze answer. Is that your mistake?

[Ajaykumar02]

Below two steps would solve you the problem of framework not found for a dependency lib and linker error attached to dependency,

1. clear Deriveddata
2. try running the project using the 'react-native run-ios' from command line.
