SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This migration guide provides a comprehensive, step-by-step process to move Kotlin Multiplatform projects from CocoaPods-based dependencies to Swift Package Manager (SwiftPM), ensuring consistent dependency resolution, iOS integration, and clean deintegration of CocoaPods.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Stepwise Gradle/Kotlin/SwiftPM workflow to map CocoaPods dependencies to SwiftPM packages with minimal disruption.
  • Guidance for iOS project reconfiguration, embedding and signing adjustments, and removal of the CocoaPods bridge after migration.
  • Validation procedures and best practices to prevent runtime linkage conflicts, including version preservation and environment considerations.

Quick Start

Run the migration workflow to convert CocoaPods-based Kotlin modules to SwiftPM and validate the iOS integration.

FAQPage Schema
How do I migrate a Kotlin Multiplatform project from CocoaPods to SwiftPM?

Migrating Kotlin Multiplatform from CocoaPods to SwiftPM involves mapping pod dependencies to SwiftPM packages and updating iOS integration. The workflow coordinates Gradle, Kotlin, and Xcode changes across modules to ensure a clean, production-ready build.

Does migrating KMP dependencies to SwiftPM require upgrading Kotlin?

Migrating KMP dependencies to SwiftPM may require upgrading Kotlin when necessary to maintain compatibility. The migration process evaluates your current Kotlin version and applies required upgrades to ensure clean dependency resolution and prevent runtime conflicts.

What is the best way to preserve exact dependency versions when moving from CocoaPods to SwiftPM?

Preserving exact CocoaPods versions during SwiftPM migration requires mapping each pod dependency to its corresponding SwiftPM package counterpart. The workflow enforces strict version preservation and validates the iOS project reconfiguration to prevent runtime linkage conflicts.

How do I reconfigure Xcode to remove the CocoaPods bridge after migrating to SwiftPM?

Removing the CocoaPods bridge after SwiftPM migration requires reconfiguring the iOS project, including embedding and signing adjustments. The workflow ensures clean deintegration of CocoaPods and validates the updated Xcode project structure to avoid runtime issues.

Can I migrate a large Kotlin Multiplatform project with multiple modules to SwiftPM without breaking the build?

Migrating multi-module Kotlin Multiplatform projects to SwiftPM is supported by coordinating Gradle, Kotlin, and Xcode changes across all modules and wrappers. The workflow includes validation procedures and best practices to ensure a clean, production-ready build.

Why does my iOS build have runtime conflicts after switching from CocoaPods to SwiftPM?

Runtime conflicts after switching to SwiftPM often stem from improper dependency resolution or unresolved CocoaPods bridges. The migration workflow prevents these issues by preserving exact versions, upgrading Kotlin when necessary, and reconfiguring iOS project linkage.
