Using different version of lib through cocoapod for different project

This is a tiny doubt which I want to get clarified.

I have a project which is lets say Project-1 which uses a library of ytr (cocoapod version 0.1.13).

I have another project which is lets say Project-2 which I am planning to use library of ytr (cocoapod version 0.2.0).

Now if I do "pod install" in second project, will this also update the pod which is with "Project-1"?

When you run pod install it is in the context of the Podfile you are referencing. i.e. running pod install in the directory where Project-1 resides will install it's dependencies (and run whatever else you have defined in the podfile) for that Podfile under the $PROJ1_PODFILE_LOCATION\Pods directory

Doing the same for project-2 will install that project's dependencies under its own $PROJ2_PODFILE_LOCATION\Pods directory.

You can see the actual versions it downloaded for each project inside the Podfile.lock file it creates after resolving the dependencies (it's kinda like Gem's Gemfile.lock if you are familiar).

You can read more about this behavior and the Podfile.lock file here
