Install a Firebase SDK using CocoaPods

Firebase distributes several iOS specific APIs and SDKs via CocoaPods. You can install the CocoaPods tool on OS X by running the following command from the terminal. Detailed information is available in the Getting Started guide.

$ sudo gem install cocoapods

Add a Firebase SDK to your iOS app

CocoaPods is used to install and manage dependencies in existing Xcode projects.

1. Create an Xcode project, and save it to your local machine.
2. Create a file named Podfile in your project directory. This file defines your project's dependencies, and is commonly referred to as a Podspec.

3. Open Podfile, and add your dependencies. A simple Podspec is shown here:

   platform :ios, '8.0'
   pod 'Firebase'
   

4. Save the file.

5. Open a terminal and cd to the directory containing the Podfile.

   $ cd <path-to-project>/project/
   

6. Run the pod install command. This will install the SDKs specified in the Podspec, along with any dependencies they may have.

   $ pod install
   

7. Open your app's .xcworkspace file to launch Xcode. Use this file for all development on your app.

8. You can also install other Firebase SDKs by adding the subspecs in the Podfile.
