Cannot find '.xcworkspace' after pod install

Question

I'm very new to iOS developing, so any help is appreciated!

So I basically installed Cocoapods, installed pod Stripe and basically had issues going forward. I ended up deleting the files for my project, .xcworkspace, Pods folder, my original project, etc. I wanted to start completely over to make it easier and not complicate things more.

I basically created a new .xcodeproj from a Parse Starter Project. I got set up on Heroku and then I went to install the pod Stripe. I did 'pod install' and it said everything was good and to use the '.xcworkspace' going forward. So I figured everything was fine. I went to look for the '.xcworkspace' file and it's nowhere to be found on my computer.

Then I went back to Terminal and did 'pod install' again, I'm getting a new message that doesn't include 'use the .xcworkspace file going forward'.

Attached are screenshots of

Any help so I can get Stripe up and running is appreciated!! Thank you!!

Answer 1

If you could start over again , do that.

After creating a new XcodeProject project in your downloads folder named Thrill

Open TERMINAL , navigate to your project.

Instead of

cd Users/deborah/Downloads/Thrill/Thrill.xcodeproj

use

cd ~/Downloads/Thrill

1.) Run pod init

Never open your PodFile with TextEdit , use some other editor for eg. sublimeText2

If you are already using cocoapods integrate parse using cocoapods only no need to import their frameworks separately .

Your podfile :-

  use_frameworks!

  target 'Thrill' do

  pod 'Parse' 
  pod 'Stripe'
  pod 'PaymentKit'    

  end

This should install both parse and bolts for you in your Thrill project

2.) Run pod install ...

Answer 2

Algorithm:

1. Add Podfile to your project folder

Podfile example:

 use_frameworks!

 target 'stackoverflow-39113331' do
 pod 'Stripe'
 pod 'PaymentKit'
 end

2. In the terminal go to your project folder

3. then make pod install

Your result folder:
