Add android

Now add platform:

This will generate platforms/android directory with com-meetinglawyers-cordova

cordova platform add android

The platforms/android/com-meetinglawyers-cordova its important because contains xxxx-plugin.gradle file we must edit as documentation:

now launch:

cordova prepare android

Now if you import project will launch an error:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* Where:
Script './platforms/android/CordovaLib/cordova.gradle' line: 114

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred evaluating script.
> Unable to determine Android SDK directory.

How to fix it? https://stackoverflow.com/a/67398932/4693765

You need to go Android Sdk manager and download SDK Tools version 30 (mark this check on Settings of android studio) Now find MIN_BUILD_TOOLS_VERSION and change to 30.0.0 sync gradle and all must be fixed.

Add iOS

Now add platform:

this will generate platforms/ios directory

cordova platform add ios

If you launch previous command an error appear! Now go to platforms/ios and edit Podfile:

Add at end of this file:

post_install do |installer|
  installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
    target.build_configurations.each do |config|
      if target.name == 'MessageKit'
        config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = '4.2'
      end
      config.build_settings['DEBUG_INFORMATION_FORMAT'] = 'dwarf' # avoid too many symbols
      config.build_settings["EXCLUDED_ARCHS[sdk=iphonesimulator*]"] = "arm64"
      config.build_settings['CODE_SIGNING_ALLOWED'] = 'NO'
      config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '13.0'
      config.build_settings['BUILD_LIBRARY_FOR_DISTRIBUTION'] = "YES"
    end
  end
end

Now launch pod install

pod install

This command will launch an error:

[!] Unable to determine Swift version for the following pods:

- `MessageInputBar` does not specify a Swift version and none of the targets (`TestApp`) integrating it have the `SWIFT_VERSION` attribute set. Please contact the author or set the `SWIFT_VERSION` attribute in at least one of the targets that integrate this pod.
- `MessageKit` does not specify a Swift version and none of the targets (`TestApp`) integrating it have the `SWIFT_VERSION` attribute set. Please contact the author or set the `SWIFT_VERSION` attribute in at least one of the targets that integrate this pod.
- `RealmSwift` does not specify a Swift version and none of the targets (`TestApp`) integrating it have the `SWIFT_VERSION` attribute set. Please contact the author or set the `SWIFT_VERSION` attribute in at least one of the targets that integrate this pod.
- `Swinject` does not specify a Swift version and none of the targets (`TestApp`) integrating it have the `SWIFT_VERSION` attribute set. Please contact the author or set the `SWIFT_VERSION` attribute in at least one of the targets that integrate this pod.

To solve this problems:

• open .xcworkspace.
• Go to Project settings (info tab) and edit iOS deployment Target to iOS 13.0
• Go to Target settings (general tab) and edit Minimum Deployments to iOS 13.0
• Go to Project settings (build settings), choose all filter and find swift language version update it to Swift5
• Go to CordovaLib sub project, select cordovaLib on target, (build settings tab) and edit Excluded Architectures to 'Any iOS Simulator SDK' -> arm64 on debug and release
• Close project and XCode.

Now open terminal and launch pod install again:

pod install
