Undefined method 'install!' - cocoapods

I'm running CocoaPods 0.39.0, and I'm getting the following error when I run pod install:
[!] Invalid `Podfile` file: undefined method `install!' for #<Pod::Podfile:0x007fc3e993c510>.
Updating CocoaPods might fix the issue.
This is the line in my Podfile that is causing the error:
install! 'cocoapods', :deterministic_uuids => false
I tried running gem install cocoapods to update everything, just to make sure that wasn't the problem. It didn't help.
install! is listed as a valid command in the Cocoapods documentation. Is it not available in 0.39.0? Is the solution to update to the current beta?

After reviewing the CocoaPods documentation further, it does appear that the install! command is only available in the beta version. After running sudo gem install cocoapods --pre and then re-installing the pod, everything worked.

Can you try uninstall cocoapods and install latest version of cocoapods ?
$ sudo gem uninstall cocoapods
After that run:
pod update
I hope, this will solve your problem
I also have this problem, and I fix this problem by changing the pod version to 1.9.3 in Gemfile.

Thanks for the responses but as it turns out my macOS ruby/gems not updated.. I updated all the required things and followed same steps now it's working fine.

Pod setup failure

Right after installing cocoapods with brew and running pod setup it exists with the following messages:
Setting up CocoaPods master repo
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.3/usr/lib/ruby/2.3.0/yaml.rb:5:in `<top (required)>':
It seems your ruby installation is missing psych (for YAML output).
To eliminate this warning, please install libyaml and reinstall your ruby.

This is most likely an issue with your ruby config. I use RVM to manage my ruby installations and running rvm get stable --auto-dotfiles fixed the issue.

Determining how cocoapods was installed

Background
A few years ago I installed cocoapods for a project I was working on. Since then I have not used it and now I need to update it to get Flutter working.
System
OS MacOS Mojave
Version 10.14.3
Question
I do not want to end up installing 2 different versions of cocoapods and cause myself a bunch of problems. I am trying to determine how I originally installed cocoapods so I can update it.
How can I determine how cocoapods was originally installed?
What I Tried
I can see cocoapods is installed because when I run,
pod --version the output is
1.3.1
When I run which cocoapods I get
cocoapods not found
When I run which pod I get
/usr/local/bin/pod
I checked that file and it is a cocoapods file installed by a ruby gem. This is what I see when I look at the file,
!/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.3/usr/bin/ruby
#
This file was generated by RubyGems.
#
The application 'cocoapods' is installed as part of a gem, and
this file is here to facilitate running it.
At this point I try and update it,
gem update cocoapods
I get,
Updating installed gems Nothing to update
When I run gem list I get a list of installed gems but pods nor cocoapods is in the list.
I also checked brew list and do not see it installed in there either. I can see evidence that it was installed as a gem but I do not understand why gem update cocoapods finds nothing to update.
Update
I broke down and went ahead and tried to install cocoapods as a gem since I already had the gem file in place.
gem install cocoapods
When I run gem list it shows that cocoapods was installed as version 1.6.1 as there are a bunch of new cocoapods files in my gem list.
When I run pod --version it still says 1.3.1.
I removed the pod file from /usr/local/bin and then ran pod --version again. At this point I get a command not found error.
After adding it back I can see the same output of the old version exists again. 1.3.1.
I tried removing the old pod file from /usr/local/bin and then gem install cocoapods. After doing so the pod command will not work but I can see that cocoapods is installed as a gem on my system.
Evidently there is a problem installing cocoapods on some newer MacOS systems due to the all of the permissions changes rolled out from Apple.
I saw a suggestion to install cocoapods on El Captain like this,
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods
Which would explain why I have a rogue pod file inside of that directory.
Solution
I deleted the pod file out of my /usr/local/bin folder.
I installed cocoapods again using => sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods
Now when I run pod --version I get 1.6.1.

Cocoapods points to wrong version

I had some problems with one version of the project. I've found this answer where someone suggest steps to remove all cocoapods-connected stuff from the machine and reinstall it. I did follow the steps:
$ 'pod --version'
0.36.1
$ gem list --local | grep cocoapods
cocoapods (0.39.0.rc.1, 0.38.2, 0.38.1, 0.37.2)
cocoapods-core (0.39.0.rc.1, 0.38.2, 0.38.1, 0.37.2)
cocoapods-downloader (0.9.3, 0.9.1)
cocoapods-plugins (0.4.2)
cocoapods-search (0.1.0)
cocoapods-stats (0.6.2, 0.5.3)
cocoapods-trunk (0.6.4, 0.6.1)
cocoapods-try (0.5.1, 0.4.5)
$ gem uninstall cocoapods // and all others from the list above
The problem is that when i again grep all cocoapods, the list was equal to upper one, nothing disappeared.
$ sudo gem uninstall cocoapods
Select gem to uninstall:
1. cocoapods-0.37.2
2. cocoapods-0.38.1
3. cocoapods-0.38.2
4. cocoapods-0.39.0.rc.1
5. All versions
> 5
$ pod --version
// here was the error command not found, so everything fine
$ sudo gem install cocoapods
Fetching: cocoapods-0.38.2.gem (100%)
Successfully installed cocoapods-0.38.2
Parsing documentation for cocoapods-0.38.2
Installing ri documentation for cocoapods-0.38.2
Done installing documentation for cocoapods after 2 seconds
1 gem installed
$ pod --version
Could not find proper version of cocoapods (0.36.1) in any of the sources
Run `bundle install` to install missing gems.
But why does it want me to install 0.36.1? Anyway, as it asked, I did:
$bundle install
Installing cocoapods-core 0.36.1
Installing cocoapods-downloader 0.8.1
Installing cocoapods-plugins 0.4.1
Installing cocoapods-trunk 0.6.0
Installing cocoapods-try 0.4.3
Installing cocoapods 0.36.1
// Many "using" dependencies
So now when I run:
$ pod --version
0.36.1
And I'm stuck :) Why can't I have newest release version? Maybe pod --version points to the newest version of cocoapods-core instead of only cocoapods, so everything is ok and I have the correct version?
Check if you use Gemfile and there is specified the version of
cocoapods.
You can use specific version by pod *version* action. For example: pod _1.5.0.beta.1_ update or pod _1.5.0.beta.1_ install
For anyone coming to this in an attempt to update cocoapods. After doing all of the above I wasn't able to get this resolved. I then headed to the resolved answer and being unwilling to remove RVM, I tried to resolve this issue another way.
I found that my issue did indeed lie in my Gemfile.
First, run
gem install cocoapods to ensure you have the latest version, or whatever specified version you were looking for downloaded.
Second, ensure your projects Gemfile hasn't specified a cocoapods version number and instead simply specifies it as:
gem "cocoapods"
If yours doesn't, change this and run bundle update to regenerate the Gemfile.lock file and your problem should be solved. If not, go ahead and delete the Gemfile.lock file altogether and then run bundle update. You can easily check to see which gem version will be loaded by opening the Gemfile.lock file and searching for cocoapods-core <version number here>
At this point, you can go into your project and run
pod setup
and then check the cocoapods version with
pod --version
and now FINALLY you are free to run
pod install
to replace the Podfile.lock file and get back to your happy dev life. Hope that helps someone and saves them from burning hours.
It seems something got messed up in my ruby version. I still have no idea what and why. I've managed to fix it via this solution: https://stackoverflow.com/a/25021772/849616. After it everything works correctly.
You might face this issue when it comes migrating to a higher Swift version. Assuming that you already have cocoapods installed, you probably need to run bundle update command (possibly with sudo).
For more details, you could check: https://guides.cocoapods.org/using/a-gemfile.html
Additionally, I'd suggest to do the following:
Install the latest Xcode version.
Clear derived data (not just clean project) in your project.
Run pod update command.
I have the same problem.
In my project, pod --version and gem which cocoapods always return diffrence version.
All I had to do is remove Gemfile.lock in my project and bundle install again. It removed the locked cocoapods version and install a new one.
Hope that helps some one here.
I ran pod install and I've got this error:
Could not find proper version of cocoapods (1.11.3) in any of the sources
and I ran:
bundle install
after that pod install worked properly
