How to fix "cordova-plugin-googlemaps is not installed or ready yet" on IOS with Ionic 4

I developed an application on Ionic 4 using GoogleMaps. I first developed on Android, then when I wanted to export my project to IOS, problems appeared.

I would like to point out that I use the cordova-plugin-googlemaps "multiple_maps" version on Android, and that without it, I hadn't managed to get the map to work on Android.

I installed the dependencies for my project :

But with this last command, problems appeared. I could see in the console that android and browser were well installed, ios also thanks to "pod". So I'm trying to build on Xcode: I have errors that the file "GoogleMaps/GoogleMaps.h" is not found.

The solution I found is to open the Podfile file, and change the version of GoogleMaps from "2.7.0" by default, to the version "3.1.0". So I deleted the Podfile.lock file and the Pods folder, and I restarted a pod install.

Unfortunately, I still have the error "GoogleMaps/GoogleMaps.h is not found. ", but I managed once (unfortunately I don't know how anymore) to remove this error and launch this application.

Instead of the map, I have the error "[GoogleMaps] cordova-plugin-googlemaps is not installed or ready yet." . I'm pretty sure the code behind it is ok, since it works without any problems on Android.

Here are my version details :

OS : Mojave 10.14.5 (last version) XCode : 10.2 (last version) cordova : 8.1.2 cordova-ios : 5.0.1 ionic : 5.0.1

    }
}

Edit : I created a minimal project to reproduce the problem https://github.com/NuritArmelle/Bug-googlemaps-not-installed

Here are the steps I did to reproduce (on a Mac):

npm install
npm rebuild node-sass --unsafe-perm
ionic cordova platform add ios
ionic cordova prepare ios
npm install @ionic-native/core@beta
npm install @ionic-native/google-maps@beta
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-googlemaps#multiple_maps --variable API_KEY_FOR_ANDROID="my android key" --variable API_KEY_FOR_IOS="my IOS key"

At this point, when I tried to build, it already gave me the error: "GoogleMaps/GoogleMaps.h is not found." (and I was on xcworkspace this time).

Then I created my Podfile in platforms/ios (here are the contents of it):

DO NOT MODIFY -- auto-generated by Apache Cordova
platform :ios, '8.0'
target 'Bug-Googlemaps-not-installed' do
    project 'Bug-Googlemaps-not-installed.xcodeproj'
    pod 'GoogleMaps', '~> 2.7.0'
end

Finally, I did a "pod install". Still the same problem, can't build cause of "GoogleMaps.h".

I resolve in this way, follow changes I made:

  1. Remove these folders: platforms, node_modules, plugins, www e package-lock.json.
  2. Uninstall cordova: sudo npm uninstall -g cordova
  3. Install cordova: sudo npm install -g cordova
  4. Install SDK from google maps: ionic cordova plugin add https://github.com/mapsplugin/cordova-plugin-googlemaps-sdk.git
  5. Install plugin google maps: ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-googlemaps --variable API_KEY_FOR_IOS="your_api_key"
  6. ionic cordova platform add ios.
  7. ionic cordova prepare ios.
  8. ionic cordova debug ios.
  9. open xcode.
