How to Load Resource in Cocoapods Resource_Bundle

How to load resource in cocoapods resource_bundle

I struggled with a similar issue for a while. The resource bundle for a pod is actually a separate bundle from where your code lives. Try the following:

Swift 5

let frameworkBundle = Bundle(for: XDWebViewController.self)
let bundleURL = frameworkBundle.resourceURL?.appendingPathComponent("XDCoreLib.bundle")
let resourceBundle = Bundle(url: bundleURL!)

let image = UIImage(named: "ic_arrow_back", in: resourceBundle, compatibleWith: nil)
print(image)

-- ORIGINAL ANSWER --

let frameworkBundle = NSBundle(forClass: XDWebViewController.self)
let bundleURL = frameworkBundle.resourceURL?.URLByAppendingPathComponent("XDCoreLib.bundle")
let resourceBundle = NSBundle(URL: bundleURL!)
let image = UIImage(named: "ic_arrow_back", inBundle: resourceBundle, compatibleWithTraitCollection: nil)
print(image)

Loading resource_bundle error in cocoapods

Nothing wrong with your code.

Cocoapods on version 1.0.1 supports Assets Catalogs. Please check if yours isn't below it running pod --version in Terminal.

If a new pod install does not solved, there is an issue with the xCode New Build System on Assets Catalogs (as mentioned Here) that could be your problem.

You can change the Build System on File > Workspace Settings... > Build System. Try setting it to Legacy Build System.

Swift 4.2 - Cocoapods: Adding and accessing scnassets in resource_bundles

Suppose ZARKit is your framework distributed in CocoaPods.

.podspec includes:

s.resource_bundles = {
      'ARUtilsScenes' => ['ARUtils/Assets/ARScenes.scnassets']
   }

then you should do this

let bundle = Bundle(for: #Your Class#.self).
let resourcePath = bundle.path(forResource: <#T##String?#>, ofType: <#T##String?#>)
let resourceBundle = Bundle(path: resourcePath)

let url = resourceBundle.url(forResource: "ARScenes.scnassets/<#YourResourceName-arrow#>", withExtension: "<#scn#>")
let arrowScene = SCNScene(url: url)

Accepted answer, but this was the actual code I used:

        // find bundle based on existing class in pod
        let frameworkBundle = Bundle(for: ARUtilsClass.self) //ARUtilsClass is an empty class, Pod is only extensions for existing classes
        // append the scenes bundle, scnassets, and scn/dae
        let arrowURL = frameworkBundle.resourceURL?.appendingPathComponent("ARUtilsScenes.bundle/ARScenes.scnassets/newArrow.scn")
        // create a node in parent
        var arrow = SCNNode()
        do {
            // get arrow scene from bundle
            let bundleArrowScene = try SCNScene(url: (arrowURL)!, options: nil)
            // add arrow node from scene
            arrow = bundleArrowScene.rootNode.childNode(withName: "arrow", recursively: true)!
        } catch {
            print("failed to find arrow resource")
        }
