Question

I cannot get parse to work with rubymotion. I tried using the cocoapod and vendoring the project. I must be missing something trivial. The ideal scenario to me would be to use the pod as opposed to vendoring the project, but I’ll use whichever I can manage to get working.

I use pods all the time, so I don’t think my cocoapods setup is messing anything up. The runtime error I get with this setup occurs when I try and set my app id and client key with:

Parse.setApplicationId('xxx', clientKey:'yyy')

I get this guy:

app_delegate.rb:6:in `application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:': uninitialized constant AppDelegate::Parse (NameError)

I have tried deleting my vendor dir and ‘rake clean’ing many times. Here is a new blank project that I created that tries to use Parse as a cocoapod and gives me that error. I’d appreciate it if someone could take a look at that to see if it persists for you.

In the other scenario I added Parse as a vendored project. I also added a couple .dylib’s and frameworks. Here is another blank project I created to illustrate this scenario. When I try to run this version, I get the following compile time errors:

Build ./build/iPhoneSimulator-6.0-Development
     Build vendor/Parse.framework
   Compile ./app/app_delegate.rb
    Create ./build/iPhoneSimulator-6.0-Development/test.app

If someone who’s used parse could take a look at those and let me know if they get the same thing/what they think the problem is, I’d really appreciate it. This is holding me up. Thanks,

First, there is no Parse CocoaPod.

Second, the problem with your Rakefile is that you didn’t include all of the required libraries. Here’s what works for me: https://gist.github.com/4367907
