Firebase database sample errors (iOS)

[David Russell]

I am hoping to get some tips to resolve the errors I am getting with CocoaPods install and Xcode compile for the IOS database example App.

$ pod install

Pod installation complete! There are 3 dependencies from the Podfile and 16 total pods installed.

[!] Unable to read the license file `.../FireBase-quickstart/database/Pods/FirebaseUI/LICENSE` for the spec `FirebaseUI (0.4.0)`

If I add a license file in the Pods/FirebaseUI directory (just a copy of the Apache License) then the pod install runs without error, but the Xcode build still fails to find the FirebaseUI module:

FireBase-quickstart/database/DatabaseExampleSwift/PostDataSource.swift:18:8: error: no such module 'FirebaseUI'

import FirebaseUI

Xcode generates the same error if I try to build the Obj-C target.

My Podfile is unchanged from the version downloaded from GitHub:

# DatabaseExample

use_frameworks!

platform :ios, '7.0'

pod 'Firebase/Database'

pod 'Firebase/Auth'

pod 'FirebaseUI'

target 'DatabaseExample' do

end

target 'DatabaseExampleSwift' do

end

target 'DatabaseExampleTests' do

end

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hey there,

Sorry about this one :(

TL;DR: s/FirebaseUI/FirebaseDatabaseUI, when we were rebuilding FirebaseUI for the new clients, I changed the module from FirebaseUI to FirebaseDatabaseUI to accommodate the AuthUI in a better flow, and ended up breaking compatibility with the samples. I'm working on fixing this (by adding a FirebaseUI module), but for now, if you just use import FirebaseDatabaseUI, everything will work.

Thanks and sorry again,

That seems to do the trick.  Thanks for the quick, easy fix.
