  • 22 Cocoapod dependencies (reduced from 28)
  • 1 Carthage dependency
  • 2 submodules dependencies via local cocoapod (reduced from 3)

The project is tested with Xcode 9.3 (9E145) on iOS 11.3 (15E216) device with cocoapod version 1.4.0+, and carthage version 0.18.1.

The project will be further reduced for its dependencies.

How to Build Project

Perform the following steps to be able to build the project. Be warned that you should not call pod update as newer version of pod frameworks that Potatso depends on might break building process and there will be errors.

  1. git clone https://github.com/haxpor/Potatso.git or for faster using less time in cloning git clone https://github.com/haxpor/Potatso.git --depth=1
  2. cd Potatso
  3. git submodule update --init to update git submodule
  4. pod install to pull down dependencies into our project
  5. carthage update to pull down dependencies into Carthage/Checkouts folder and build each one
  6. Open Potatso.xcworkspace then Build and Run the project. Done.

First two steps are clearly listed here as per #89; if you download project as zip via Github web interface it will not have enough information to pull down required gitsubmodule, and step 3 will have error. So make sure you clone via command line, or using any git client application before proceeding.
