Hi there,
Is it possible to use “native.cocoapods” library in order to automatically publish the common code in github as a cocoa pod library?
The auto generated podspec sets the source as:

spec.source = { :git => "Not Published", :tag => "Cocoapods/#{spec.name}/#{spec.version}" }

This works fine locally but I want to change it to something like:

spec.source = { :git => 'git@my_path.git', :tag => s.version.to_s}

P.S Ideally I would like to use 2 repositories (Android + KMM, iOS) and feed the iOS app with a KMM cocoa pod.

@Kris Wong you are my last hope :)

the cocoapods plugin does not provide this functionality. typically your build server or another plugin might provide this.

[Kris Wong]

this is technically not specific to KMM. any strategy for publishing a cocoapod would apply.

[Kris Wong]

however, keep in mind that the cocoapods plugin uses a vendored framework, which means your framework would need to be hosted somewhere (like Artifactory).

But this procedure is quite standard in iOS native code and you can share your private pods though github. So this seems like a native.cocoapods specific issue to me.

[Kris Wong]

and what technique do you use to share your other podspec files with git?

[ptsiogas]

We set the source in podspec like this:

spec.source = { :git => 'git@my_path.git', :tag => s.version.to_s}

In native.cocoapods the podspec is autogenerated, so we cannot change it manually, at least that’s my understanding, correct me if I am wrong.

[Kris Wong]

it is autogenerated, but that doesn't mean it can't be changed before it's pushed to a git repo

[ptsiogas]

Do you have in mind any working example, I would really appreciate it.
