FirebaseMLVisionTextModel has been deprecated in favor of MLKitTextRecognition

Question

I am using Firebase MLKit TextRecognition API. There is a warning when trying to update 'pod Firebase/MLVisionTextModel'. How to update Firebase MLKit library?

[!] FirebaseMLVisionTextModel has been deprecated in favor of MLKitTextRecognition

Answer 1

Firebase on-device APIs have moved under GoogleMLKit.

On June 3, 2020, we made some changes to ML Kit for Firebase to better distinguish the on-device APIs from cloud based APIs. The current set of APIs is now split into the following two products:

• A new product, simply called ML Kit, which will contain all the on-device APIs
• Firebase Machine Learning, focused on cloud-based APIs and custom model deployment.

So the new version of Firebase/MLVisionTextModel is GoogleMLKit/TextRecognition

pod 'GoogleMLKit/TextRecognition'

There is also a Migration Guide to the new API.
