I am having issues with installing NativeScript. My machine uses a M1 chip, I'm reading M1 and cocoapods have issues. Other SO answers are not fixing the issue, and some are outdated. Hoping we can get an updated answer.
I followed the mac instructions on this guide:
sudo ns doctor ios
returns all checkmarks up until
✖ WARNING: CocoaPods is not installed or is not configured properly.
You will not be able to build your projects for iOS if they contain plugin with CocoaPod file.
How can I properly configure cocoapods for M1 chip?
I have uninstalled and reinstalled cocoapods using gem
sudo gem uninstall cocoapods
for each cocoapod gem in "gem list cocoapods"
sudo gem uninstall cocoapods-NAME
and reinstalled
sudo gem install cocoapods
my zshrc for gem installation export PATH="/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/bin:$PATH"
Result is the same error.
I have also tried using home brew to install and uninstall cocoapods
brew install --cask cocoapods/brew install cocoapods
and
brew uninstall cocoapods
my zshrc for brew installation export PATH="/opt/homebrew/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/bin:$PATH"
Result is the same error
While installed, both options return version 1.12.1 when calling "pod --version"
Another thing I have been seeing in other SO posts is to try arch
sudo arch -x86_64 gem install cocoapods
this returns
arch: posix_spawnp: gem: Bad CPU type in executable
Opening the terminal using rosetta does not fix this issue for me.
This command does work however:
arch -arm64 brew install cocoapods
pod --version works properly (1.12.1)
Result is the same error
I have uninstalled and reinstalled many times in different ways, I have followed the accepted answer of countless SO questions, and nothing is correctly configuring cocoapods. The other needed gem "xcodeproj" works just fine.
Thank you.
Found the answer.
Denkan's answer on this thread fixed the issues with cocoapods. https://github.com/NativeScript/nativescript-cli/issues/5447
I needed to manually recreate the tns doctor steps.
