Cocoapods alert for objc project

[qiaoyan]

Hi,
is there any configuration in pod's file can define version for objc?
From Cocoapods:

[!] Pods written in Swift can only be integrated as frameworks; this feature is still in beta. Add `use_frameworks!` to your Podfile or target to opt into using it.

There is a way using subspecs like QueryKit.podspec for example. The current solution would be to use Chameleon 1.1.2

[qiaoyan]

Thanks bre7, the following line resolve this issue temporarily:
pod 'ChameleonFramework', :git => "https://github.com/VAlexander/Chameleon.git", :tag => "1.1.2"

@qiaoyan @bre7 Let me look into this. I'll post any updates here.

[bre7]

@qiaoyan Or pod 'ChameleonFramework', '1.1.2'

[vicc]

@bre7 is right, you could simply use:

pod 'ChameleonFramework', '1.1.2'

In the mean time I'm going to see what I can do. @bre7 What would be the best way to approach this? Would you recommend creating a new swift branch and drop the swift files there and using subspecs? Or would using subspecs alone do the job?

[bre7]

I think they would both do the trick. There's a third option: two separate specs and single branch like Realm does realm-cocoa

[vicc]

So I decided that the best thing to do for now is pursue the third option suggested by @bre7. I've separated objective-c and swift files into different folders, and plan on creating a separate spec for swift installations. At the moment the latest version (1.2.0) should install without a problem for Objective-C projects.

You can go back to simply using:

pod 'ChameleonFramework'

Later tonight I'll look into creating one for Swift.

On second thought, it seems a bit premature to create a pod spec for Swift when pod 'ChameleonFramework' works just as well for both. Perhaps if the library was completely ported over to Swift, would it make more sense. Maybe it's something that can happen if people truly want this once 2.0 is out, but I can't see much added benefit.

With that said, installation and usage should be just as easy for both languages at the moment. I updated the Installation section to cover both Objective-C and Swift, and even added Swift examples throughout the rest of the documentation as well.

[bre7]

I was gonna ask if you wanted swift examples :) Extension for "UIStatusBarStyle Methods" would be another way, I'll push it in a sec.

Thanks @bre7! I'll look at the pull request in a bit.
