Flutter: How to Solve Stuck in Running Pod Install Error? - xcode

Question

I am developing a flutter project with VSCode. Today, I download my flutter project folder to Mac. I stuck in running pod install.
I deleted the pod file and run this code
Pod install
and I got this error.
No `Podfile' found in the project directory.
I also tried to set from Xcode runner target level to 8. However, it should be at least 11.
What can I do?
Thanks for helping.

Here is my Podfile.
# Uncomment this line to define a global platform for your project
# platform :ios, '8.0'
# CocoaPods analytics sends network stats synchronously affecting flutter build latency.
ENV['COCOAPODS_DISABLE_STATS'] = 'true'
project 'Runner', {
'Debug' => :debug,
'Profile' => :release,
'Release' => :release,
}
def flutter_root
generated_xcode_build_settings_path = File.expand_path(File.join('..', 'Flutter', 'Generated.xcconfig'), __FILE__)
unless File.exist?(generated_xcode_build_settings_path)
raise "#{generated_xcode_build_settings_path} must exist. If you're running pod install manually, make sure flutter pub get is executed first"
end
File.foreach(generated_xcode_build_settings_path) do |line|
matches = line.match(/FLUTTER_ROOT\=(.*)/)
return matches[1].strip if matches
end
raise "FLUTTER_ROOT not found in #{generated_xcode_build_settings_path}. Try deleting Generated.xcconfig, then run flutter pub get"
end
require File.expand_path(File.join('packages', 'flutter_tools', 'bin', 'podhelper'), flutter_root)
flutter_ios_podfile_setup
target 'Runner' do
use_frameworks!
use_modular_headers!
flutter_install_all_ios_pods File.dirname(File.realpath(__FILE__))
end
post_install do |installer|
installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
flutter_additional_ios_build_settings(target)
end
end

Answer 1

Merhaba, I recommend following the next steps;
1- Clear XCode's "Derived Data" from; /Users/YOURUSER/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData.
2- Open the project again and remove the podfiles inside your ios folder.
3- Open project terminal and run; flutter clean && flutter pub get
4- Get inside the newly generated podfile and make your desired changes like min. platfrom etc..
5- Open project terminal again and run;
-cd ios
-sudo gem install cocoapods
-pod install
Now you can try again to see if it works.

Try the following commands:
sudo gem install cocoapods --user-install
