CocoaPods - Podspec Fundamentals

Essential patterns for creating and maintaining podspec files that define CocoaPods libraries.

Required Attributes

Every podspec must include these attributes:

Pod::Spec.new do |spec|
  # Identity
  spec.name         = 'MyLibrary'
  spec.version      = '1.0.0'

  # Metadata
  spec.license      = { :type => 'MIT', :file => 'LICENSE' }
  spec.homepage     = 'https://github.com/username/MyLibrary'
  spec.authors      = { 'Your Name' => 'email@example.com' }
  spec.summary      = 'Brief description under 140 characters'
