I have a static framework in iOS. This framework has to do some OCR on an image.
Fo which I need to add Google's MLKit Vision Text Recognition (on-device) to this static framework.
I can't add from cocoapods.
Edit: Adding cocoapods will make the framework dynamic and I need to keep the framework static. So, I can't add from cocoapods to the framework.
Is there any way to add Google's MLKit Vision Text Recognition without cocoapods?

Please help.

Have you checked out ML Kit quickstart vision sample app? It shows you how to add ML Kit text recognition from the cocoapods.

  • Yes, sample app does show how to add from cocoapods. But I can not add from cocoapods because I need to add to the static framework. Adding cocoapods to framework makes it dynamic and I am not supposed to do it as other things are dependent on being the framework as static. – madhurtewani Jul 19 '21 at 09:40
  • I'm not an expert on cocoapods, so not sure why adding cocoapods to a framework makes it dynamic, but have you tried linking the cocoapod statically by replacing `use_frameworks!` in your Podfile with `use_frameworks! :linkage => :static` to see if that solves your problem? I tried that in ML Kit's sample app and it seems to work fine. – Dong Chen Jul 20 '21 at 21:36
