The dependency `Firebase/Core` is not used in any concrete target

Question

I am using Xcode 8.2.1, Swift 3, and IOS 10.2 (for iphone simulator). I am trying to follow this tutorial https://www.raywenderlich.com/139322/firebase-tutorial-getting-started-2

I have not gotten to the Firebase stuff. Right now I am just trying to build and compile the starter code.

The starter Podfile looks like this:

inhibit_all_warnings!

pod 'Firebase/Core'
pod 'Firebase/Database'
pod 'Firebase/Auth'

When I run pod install, I get

Re-creating CocoaPods due to major version update.
Analyzing dependencies
[!] The dependency `Firebase/Core` is not used in any concrete target.
The dependency `Firebase/Database` is not used in any concrete target.
The dependency `Firebase/Auth` is not used in any concrete target.

What should I do to fix this?

Have you added this target to these dependencies? like, target 'your target' do — Rajesh73, Feb 22 '17 at 18:56
@Rajesh73 I am new to podfiles, how do I add target to dependencies? — kevin_b, Feb 22 '17 at 18:59
According to the starter code, it should build and run as it comes? — kevin_b, Feb 22 '17 at 18:59

this might works for you

target "TARGET_NAME" do
   pod 'Firebase/Core'
   pod 'Firebase/Database'
   pod 'Firebase/Auth'
end

Can you please explain why this works and the starter podfile does not (although it should)? – kevin_b Feb 22 '17 at 19:06
starter pod file doen't know your target name. Target name may be the different than you .xcodeproject file. – Kuntal Gajjar Feb 22 '17 at 21:14

It's caused by not specifying the target. You have to add the target "your target name" in Podfile.
