cocoapods integration error: undefined local variable or method `min_supported_versions' #45889

ziggear · 2024-08-05T05:34:18Z

Description

Followed instructions in React Native's official document - Environment Setup - Integration with existing apps, installed react native 0.74.0 and react 18.2.0, then add some react native's pod to my Podfile, error occurred after pod install command.

Steps to reproduce

As instructed in official document, I create a package.json with content:

{
  "name": "MyReactNativeApp",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "private": true,
  "scripts": {
    "start": "yarn react-native start"
  }
}

execute command: npm install react-native@0.74.0 && npm install react@18.2.0
go to my Podfile, copy/paste pods listed in the document (paths already changed to the real path correctly):

  pod 'FBLazyVector', :path => "../node_modules/react-native/Libraries/FBLazyVector"
  pod 'FBReactNativeSpec', :path => "../node_modules/react-native/Libraries/FBReactNativeSpec"

I want to kindly point out that I checked the file located at node_modules/react-native/third-party-podspecs/DoubleConversion.podspec. It seems that this file references a min_supported_versions variable that does not exist. This appears to be a common issue across other podspecs as well.

While I understand that manually setting min_supported_versions to a specific value in each podspec could resolve the problem, I believe there might be a better practice for addressing this. Could you please provide some insight into how the official team introduces this variable and ensures it works across each podspec? Thank you for your assistance.

This issue still occurs in version 0.74.4.

Hi @ziggear can you share your full Podfile?
From what I can see you have a lot of pod explicitly defined that you should not have.
Also, I guess that you are calling those pod dependency before calling use_react_native!. That's the problem: that constant is defined only after the use_react_native! function is invoked.

Thanks @cipolleschi ! My Podfile is really simple because I just started a new project and tried to use the newest React Native other than the version 0.64.2 I successfully integrated before.

Thank you very much for your reminder about the use_react_native!. I apologize if I may not have fully understood the documentation. Based on the Objective-C version of the documentation, I have added pods explicitly in the Podfile. While I did find some information about use_react_native! in the Swift version's documentation, I do not have sufficient information to confirm how to use it.

Here is the full version of my project's Podfile:

@ziggear Your Podfile should look something like this:

# Resolve react_native_pods.rb with node to allow for hoisting
require Pod::Executable.execute_command('node', ['-p',
  'require.resolve(
    "react-native/scripts/react_native_pods.rb",
    {paths: [process.argv[1]]},
  )', __dir__]).strip

platform :ios, min_ios_version_supported
prepare_react_native_project!

linkage = ENV['USE_FRAMEWORKS']
if linkage != nil
  Pod::UI.puts "Configuring Pod with #{linkage}ally linked Frameworks".green
  use_frameworks! :linkage => linkage.to_sym
end

target 'NativeExample' do
  config = use_native_modules!

  use_react_native!(
    :path => config[:reactNativePath],
    :app_path => "#{Pod::Config.instance.installation_root}/../.."
  )

  post_install do |installer|
    # https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/main/packages/ react-native/scripts/react_native_pods.rb#L197-L202
    react_native_post_install(
      installer,
      config[:reactNativePath],
      :mac_catalyst_enabled => false
    )
  end
end

Thanks @okwasniewski it works for me!

By the way I believe this could be a documentation issue for the Objective-C developer to integrate initially newest react native to their project: the documentation still suggest to add pods explicitly:

The documentation on this topic is unfortunately outdated. I'm happy that you managed to get it working
