I wish I could apply variable logic when defining iOS deployment target in the application Podfile.
To set the IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET we must define the platform version in two separate files to ensure both the target application and all dependencies meet our minimum desired version.
As suggested in the troubleshooting documentation, to ensure that all dependencies are also configured to this target it is suggested that we do the following... which works fine.
platform :ios, '13.0'
post_install do |installer|
installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
target.build_configurations.each do |config|
config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '13.0'
end
end
end
This makes 3 places where I need to update the target version for iOS.
Inspired by this answer, if I try to apply any kind of logic in the application Podfile, it is either stripped by the CocoaPodsPlatformManager or ignored altogether.
It looks like the Regex is trying to match a platform within quotes('") only.
^\\s*?#\\s*?(platform\\b\\s*?\\:\\s*?ios\\b(?:,\\s*?['"](.+)['"])?)
Ruby will also complain the variable app_ios_deployment_target does not exist, which is true because only the line matched by the Regex above is hoisted above any post_install hooks and all other code blocks are lost.
It would also be great if all other lines that are not the platform definition and are outside of hooks are hoisted first, so that variables could be used.
This could mean that we can have one source of truth when defining the iOS target. Which could be in App_Resources/iOS/build.xcconfig and the read from the Podfile, or better yet an environment variable.

It would be great if CocoaPodsPlatformManager.selectPlatformDataFromProjectPodfile could be expanded to match other expressions.
It would also be great if all other lines that are not the platform definition and are outside of hooks are hoisted first, so that variables could be used.
