How to release your own open source framework to CocoaPods

Create a podspec profile for your own project.

I'm going to walk you through a project called huphotobrowser.

After the project is published to GitHub, it needs to be tagged. After that, we initialize a podspec file in the root directory of the project

pod spec create huphotobrowser

This command will produce a file in this directory. Open the file with a tool, and there is already a lot of documentation inside. Here's how to declare the ** directory and resource directory of a third-party library, as well as the iOS core framework and third-party libraries that the third-party library depends on.

Here's my podspec file:

Once the podspec file is ready, you can save the podspec file to the .The Cocoapods Repos Master Specs directory is for your own use only, or you can submit it to the Cocoapods Specs library. Let's save it to the machine first:

Also in projects that rely on the HuphotoBrowser library, you can add the following to your project's podfile file.

pod 'huphotobrowser', '~'

Save the file and install the HuphotoBrowser library with pod install.

Creating a pod repository through the steps above is still for your own use, and we will continue to explain how to submit it to the cocoapods specs repository so that others can install our open source repository via pod install.

Cocoapods Trunk publishes its own pods

After cocoapods use trunk, cocoapods needs the above version, use pod --version to check the version, if the version is low, it needs to be updated.

Register a trunk

pod trunk register 'orta therox' --description='macbook air'

pod trunk me

At this point, the whole process of making our own open source library is completed, and in the future, when there is a new version, we only need to modify the podspec file in the root directory of the project, and then re-execute the pod trunk push command.
