### 2.0) If you don't already have Cocoapods set up
Follow the instructions to install Cocoapods and create your Podfile [here](https://firebase.google.com/docs/ios/setup#add_the_sdk).
**NOTE: The Podfile needs to be initialised in the `ios` directory of your project.**
#### Troubleshooting
1) When running `pod install` you may encounter an error saying that a `tvOSTests` target is declared twice. This appears to be a bug with `pod init` and the way that react native is set up.
**Resolution:**
- Open your Podfile
- Remove the duplicate `tvOSTests` target nested within the main project target
- Re-run `pod install`.
2) When running `pod install` you may encounter a number of warnings relating to `target overrides 'OTHER_LDFLAGS'`.
**Resolution:**
- Open Xcode
- Select your project
- For each target:
-- Select the target
-- Click Build settings
-- Search for `other linker flags`
-- Add `$(inherited)` as the top line if it doesn't already exist
- Re-run `pod install`
3) When running `pod install` you may encounter a warning that a default iOS platform has been assigned. If you wish to specify a different minimum version:
**Resolution**
- Open your Podfile
- Uncomment the `# platform :ios, '9.0'` line by removing the `#` character
- Change the version as required
### 2.1) Add the required pods
Simply add the following to your `Podfile`:
Simply add the following to your `Podfile` either at the top level, or within the main project target:
```ruby
# Required by RNFirebase
pod 'Firebase/Auth'
pod 'Firebase/Analytics'
pod 'Firebase/AppIndexing'
pod 'Firebase/Core'
pod 'Firebase/Crash'
pod 'Firebase/Database'

If you are new to Cocoapods do not already have React installed as a pod, then add Yoga and React to your `Podfile` as follows:
If you are new to Cocoapods or do not already have React installed as a pod, then add Yoga and React to your `Podfile` as follows:
```ruby
pod "Yoga", :path => "../node_modules/react-native/ReactCommon/yoga"
pod 'React', :path => '../node_modules/react-native', :subspecs => [
'BatchedBridge', # For React Native 0.45.0+
'BatchedBridge', # Required For React Native 0.45.0+
'Core',
# Add any other subspecs you want to use in your project
]
```
Run `pod install`.
**NOTE: You need to use the `ios/[YOUR APP NAME].xcworkspace` instead of the `ios/[YOUR APP NAME].xcproj` file from now on.**
#### Troubleshooting
1) You receive an error `No podspec found for 'RNFirebase'`
**Resolution**
- Run `npm install --save react-native-firebase` from the root of your project
## 3) Cloud Messaging (optional)
