react-native: CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "React/Core" upgrading to 0.60.0

React Native version: ^0.60.0

Steps To Reproduce

Create a Podfile similar to this:

platform :ios, '10.0'

target 'MyTarget' do
  # inherit! :search_paths
  # Pods for testing

  react_native_path = "../node_modules/react-native"
  pod 'React', :path => "#{react_native_path}", :subspecs => [
    'Core',
    'CxxBridge',
    'DevSupport',
    'RCTText',
    'RCTNetwork',
    'RCTImage',
    'RCTWebSocket',
  ]

  pod "yoga", :path => "#{react_native_path}/ReactCommon/yoga"
  pod 'Folly', :podspec => "#{react_native_path}/third-party-podspecs/Folly.podspec"
end

npm install
cd ios && pod install

In version 0.59 this worked as expected and the pod install did not fail.

Error message from Cocoapods:

[!] CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "React/Core":
  In Podfile:
    React/Core (from `../node_modules/react-native`)

None of your spec sources contain a spec satisfying the dependency: `React/Core (from `../node_modules/react-native`)`.

You have either:
 * mistyped the name or version.
 * not added the source repo that hosts the Podspec to your Podfile.

Note: as of CocoaPods 1.0, `pod repo update` does not happen on `pod install` by default.

I'm getting error at ParfumeRecognizer pod install is failing. I found fix here https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/25553 — committed to salsita/rn-fetch-blob by saintego 4 years ago

Most upvoted comments

Here is a little workaround I’m using right now, run this bash command in the root directory of the project which replaces React/Core with React-Core in all the npm modules

grep -rl "s.dependency 'React/Core'" node_modules/ | xargs sed -i '' 's=React/Core=React-Core=g'

For those updating from an older react-native version (i.e. 0.62.xx to 0.63.xx), running pod update will fix the issue, pod install does not work.

This is garbage. No wonder people are leaving React Native in droves.

Not only we should change project’s Podfile, but also the third party deps also should update their repos. The .podspec file that contains s.dependency 'React/Core' should change to s.dependency 'React-Core.

Podfile is wrong. See https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/v0.60.0/template/ios/Podfile

Hey , @tianjyan Thanks it is fixed by this . Not only we should change project’s Podfile, but also the third party deps also should update their repos. The .podspec file that contains s.dependency ‘React/Core’ should change to s.dependency 'React-Core.

Facing same issue while migrating to 0.60: when we try ‘pod install’, below given error appears:

[!] CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "React/Core":
  In Podfile:
    RNSound (from `../node_modules/react-native-sound`) was resolved to 0.10.12, which depends on
      React/Core

None of your spec sources contain a spec satisfying the dependency: `React/Core`.

You have either:
 * out-of-date source repos which you can update with `pod repo update` or with `pod install --repo-update`.
 * mistyped the name or version.
 * not added the source repo that hosts the Podspec to your Podfile.

Please update this line into node_modules/react-native-keepcall/RNCallKeep.podspec

Same issue. react: ^16.8.6 and react-native: 0.60.2 I do not have use_frameworks.

    'Core',
    'CxxBridge',
    'DevSupport',
    'RCTActionSheet',
    'RCTAnimation',
    'RCTGeolocation',
    'RCTImage',
    'RCTLinkingIOS',
    'RCTNetwork',
    'RCTSettings',
    'RCTText',
    'RCTVibration',
    'RCTWebSocket',

Works for me.

eufernandodias on Dec 16, 2020

I had the same problem after upgrading react (and the podfile). What did it for me was deleting podfile.lock

👋 everyone.

Has we mentioned in the blogpost, the Pods dependency has changed -> https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/2321b3f

You need to change your Pod configuration to match the new format.

You need to change your Pod configuration to match the new format.

Please also point us to any documentation on how to do that. Please don’t assume that devs in React-Native realm already know iOS nuances 😐

Aman-Aalam on Jun 24, 2020

I have the same problem,

if you are getting this error the you need to in latest version of react-native-image-crop-picker try installing npm i react-native-image-crop-picker@0.25.0 --save and cd ios and
pod install

basha777 on Sep 4, 2019

Podfile is wrong. See https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/v0.60.0/template/ios/Podfile

this solved

Hi, I am also stocked on this error.

same issue. 😦. How to fix

hieuuet on Jul 17, 2019

Actually got the same but with intercom, can’t figured out what’s wrong or just how to fixed it ?

  In Podfile:
    react-native-intercom (from `../node_modules/react-native-intercom`) was resolved to 13.0.0, which depends on React/Core```

MayoudP on Mar 2, 2020

Not only we should change project’s Podfile, but also the third party deps also should update their repos. The .podspec file that contains s.dependency 'React/Core' should change to s.dependency 'React-Core.

Some 3rd party modules have already updated their podspecs. What worked for me was upgrading the 3rd party module itself (in package.json). In my case that was rn-fetch-blob.

bogdanbolchis on Feb 3, 2020

I just ran this command that it gave me: pod update Folly --no-repo-update and I don’t get the error anymore.

After following the complete thread nothing works 😃. Here is the final solution which works like charm for me.

usama-homage on Sep 15, 2020

Try this out, it worked like a charm In Root Directory run this command grep -rl “s.dependency ‘React/Core’” node_modules/ | xargs sed -i ‘’ ‘s=React/Core=React-Core=g’
