I'm writing an Ionic app but I'm getting so many issues. One issue in particular is that when I try to add the phonegap-push-plugin using the command
sudo ionic plugin add phonegap-plugin-push
I get the below error:
Error: CocoaPods was not found. Please install version 1.0.1 or greater from https://cocoapods.org/
I've obviously tried installing this software as the error suggests, but I cannot find version 1.0.1 anywhere.
I'd also like to understand what this is required for and why Ionic thinks it needs it.
Thanks a lot
To install push you must first install cocoapods. Follow these steps on your terminal in the Ionic project directory.
First remove what you tried to install
ionic cordova plugin remove phonegap-plugin-push
Next install cocoapods
sudo gem install cocoapods
Then you need to sync the cocoapods repo
pod setup
This may take a while
Finally install push
ionic cordova plugin add phonegap-plugin-push --variable SENDER_ID="XXXXXXX"
The accepted solution to this didn't work for me, I had to install an older version of cocoapods:
sudo gem uninstall cocoapods
If using brew, run this too: brew uninstall cocoapods
sudo gem install cocoapods -v 1.7.5
pod setup
Then reinstall the plugin with ionic cordova plugin add phonegap-plugin-push --variable SENDER_ID="XXXXXXX"
(As per part of https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/41253)
Try without "sudo":
cordova plugin add phonegap-plugin-push --variable SENDER_ID="XXXXXXX"
