iOS: cocoa Pods: How do I add a new dependency to an existing pod?

Question

I have juuuust started with Cocoa Pods.

I have this workspace now after initially experimenting and getting AFNetworking successfully connected via this Ray Wenderlich tutorial.

I want to now add in more dependencies like core-plot specifically. I found this link to a 'PodSpec' of Core-Plot

Problem is, I have no idea how to further implement this... Anyone have a quick run-down of what to mod and what commands in terminal to run?

Answer 1

You need to add the pod in Podfile and do pod install from terminal that's it. The steps can be summarized as

1. In terminal change the directory to your project directory containing *.xcodeproj
2. Run open Podfile. Which opens the Podfile in textEdit.
3. Add pod'CorePlot', '~> 1.4' to it and save.
4. Run pod install -- NOTE* that is **pod update if already installed.

You are good to go.
