cocoapods-static-framework

A cocoapods plugin that enables static frameworks for all pods.

Cocoapods only supports static framework at pod level, which means an option in podspec and just valid for that pod. By using this plugin, we can make all pod to static framework with only one word!

Usage

Install via gem:

$ gem install cocoapods-static-framework

Add the following to your podfile:

plugin 'cocoapods-static-framework'

NOTE: Static frameworks is still using framework, not static library. So don't forget to add use_frameworks!

About Static framework

Why

Too many dynamic frameworks will increase app boot time dramatically, also the Copy framework build phase will expend unendurable time in the code-build-run loop. (There is also a dyld crash) Static framework have no these problems.
