The specified path is not of a legal form (empty)

I tried to create the lottie-ios binding, but got an System.ArgumentException. I followed the How to use and tried than "sh bind.sh POD=lottie-ios".

Output: Building project with version: LocalBuild Shortened DependencyGraph for Target Bind: <== Bind

The resulting target order is:

• Bind Starting Target: Bind pod spec which lottie-ios seq [] Running build failed.

@mkoehne let's double check the prerequisites first. Is mono, nuget and pod on your path?

[mkoehne]

Yes all three are in /usr/local/bin and that is in my path.

[alexsorokoletov]

@mkoehne please pod --version to check the version. Should be 1.1.1. If less, please go ahead and update cocoapods (sudo gem install cocoapods or sudo gem update cocoapods).

Basically, the error is that command pod spec which lottie-ios doesn't return the expected result.

[mkoehne]

I have Version 1.2.0 installed.

[alexsorokoletov]

@mkoehne good, it might be that you need to install pod first and only after that pod which will work. Let me check that really quick.

[alexsorokoletov]

@mkoehne nope, tried using DZNEmptyDataSet which I have never used before and it worked. Can we chat in gitter to find out what's going wrong here? https://gitter.im/objc-automatic/Lobby

[alexsorokoletov]

Turns out, problem was missing pods subfolder, I will add this to repo.
