No `Podfile' found in the project directory on `pod install` step

[thebluepotato]

I'm trying to create my own Pod using pod lib create Test. I've tried multiple times with various answers to each questions and every time at the Running pod install on your new library. step, Terminal outputs the following error :

[!] No `Podfile' found in the project directory.

 Ace! you're ready to go!
 We will start you off by opening your project in Xcode
  open 'TestObjC/Example/TestObjC.xcworkspace'
The file /Users/xxx/Documents/Projects/TestObjC/Example/TestObjC.xcworkspace does not exist.

I'm using macOS Sierra (10.12.1 beta 1), Xcode 8 GM, CocoaPods Stack :

cocoapods (1.1.0.rc.2)

Ye same issues here

Same story as this issue I'm afraid: https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/5997 - Xcode 8 broke directory changing, and until we get a stable release out for that this will be broken alas.

[roblav96]

In the /Example folder just run pod install and the alias will start working.

[roblav96]

@orta Although I couldn't get anything to boot up on my screen. It would build success but no deploy to device or simulator.

[orta]

It's scheme may be a framework instead of the sim?

[roblav96]

@orta I was trying to build the example project. idk, this is my first time trying to make a pod so I'm no expert at this. lol

[eladnava]

@roblav96 Your workaround (pod install in /Example) worked around the issue for me and generated the .xcworkspace. Thanks!

Would you mind sharing the screenshot of your project directory?

[LJ-Mic]

I have created a test project and would like to add Google AdMob, for example. So I go to my project folder.

michael@Mac-mini-von-Michael GoogleAdMob % pod init michael@Mac-mini-von-Michael GoogleAdMob % pod install [!] No "Podfile" found in the project directory.

The Podfile is there quite normally and it doesn't matter whether I insert the pod or not, the same error message always comes up.

[muhammadmateen027]

Please run these commands in your project directory: cd ios pod init pod install

[LJ-Mic]

I don't have an iOS folder in my project!

[sadman-ichha]

Pod files can be installed on Windows ?? Please Tell me Anyone?

[williammongou]

No it cannot. Pod helps provide dependencies when xcode runs an ios application. And xcode will not work on windows.

[FeilyZhang]

in your /ios folder, run this command: pod init pod install

Thank you for solving my problem!
