Own CocoaPods Pod Core Data file can't be accessed

I created my own CocoaPods Pod to use for my apps internally. This Pod should also use Core Data. I added my file xy.xcdatamodeld to my source files but it's not compiled into a xy.momd folder.

Do I need to set any other properties in my Pod to get Core Data to work?

My current pod file:

 Pod::Spec.new do |s|
 s.name         = "Test"
 s.version      = "1.0"
 s.summary      = "..."
 s.homepage     = "..."
 s.license      = 'MIT (example)'
 s.author       = { "Felix Krause" => "xy@xy.com" }
 s.source       = { :git => "http://EXAMPLE/Example.podspec.git", :tag => "0.0.1" }
 s.platform     = :ios, '6.0'
 s.source_files = 'TS/Classes/**/*.{h,m}', 'TS/Views/**/*.{h,m}', 'TS/TSResources/**/*.{json,xcdatamodeld}'
 s.resources = "TS/TSResources/**/*"
 s.frameworks = 'CoreData', 'QuartzCore', 'Accounts', 'MessageUI', 'CoreLocation', 'CoreGraphics', 'MobileCoreServices', 'SystemConfiguration'
 s.requires_arc = true
 s.ios.xcconfig = { 'HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS' => '$(PODS_ROOT)/../../TS/**' }
 s.ios.xcconfig ={ 'FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS' => '"$(PODS_ROOT)/../.." "$(PODS_ROOT)/.." "$(SRCROOT)/.."' }
 s.xcconfig = { 'OTHER_LDFLAGS' => '-all_load' }
 s.dependency 'JSONKit'
 end

Just so I can come back to this, it is actually supported. All you need to do is ensure that your pod spec lists the .xcdatamodeld under resources. Something to the effect of:

Pod::Spec.new do |s|
    s.name = "MyPod"
    s.version = "0.1"
    s.platform = :ios, '8.0'
    s.requires_arc = true

    s.public_header_files = 'Pod/Classes/**/*.h'
    s.source_files = 'Pod/Classes/**/*{h,m}'
    s.resources = 'Pod/Classes/CoreData/*.xcdatamodeld'
    s.frameworks = 'CoreData'
end

I'm not very good at Ruby, so I don't understand alloy's example. What I do is just make sure that the xcdatamodeld is included as a source file, then make a reference in my project to that source file in the Pods directory.

The path ends up looking something like '../Pods/[PathToMyPod]/[MyDataModel].xcdatamodeld'.

Its a bit of a hack, but it gets the job done easily.

Take a look at the following:

There is currently no explicit support for this. Here is an example of how you could do it. Note, however, that that code was untested, but it should be something along those lines. That specific user moved the model definition into code, in the end, btw.
