Xcode: No Such Module 'Alamofire'

Question

I keep getting the error

No Such Module 'Alamofire'

In my Xcode project swift file when using import Alamofire; the file is in a separate module within the project.

I have tried the following;

Build and Run Alamofire Target
Comment out import Alamofire and run project, then uncomment and build again
Make sure I am using the <MyProject>.xcworkspace not .xcodeproj
Use $(inherited) in project > Build Settings > Build Options > ALWAYS_EMBED_SWIFT_STANDARD_LIBRARIES
Update Cocoapods, remove and reinstall dependencies

However when I open the inspector window for the swift file, the Target Membership has both the main app and the module boxes ticked.

When I untick the module for which the file is within, then in my seperateModuleTests file I cannot use the classes used in the swift file, as I get the error;

Use of undeclared type

&&

Use of unresolved identifier 'ClassName'

It seems when I uncheck the target membership for the swift file for the class that is used for the tests, seperateModuleTests doesn't recognise the classes from the swift file. But when I check the the target membership for the swift file to be part of the separate module then I get the original error.

Can anybody help me on why this is happening and how I can resolve ?

did you add your test target configuration in your pod file? — Reinier Melian, Aug 09 '17 at 16:53
No, not for the separate module. I have for the project itself `target 'appTests' do inherit! :search_paths # Pods for testing end` — RileyDev, Aug 09 '17 at 16:57
Did you open the blue file with the `.xcodeproj` extension or the white file with `.xcworkspace`? You should open the latter... — mfaani, Aug 09 '17 at 17:32
@Honey as mentioned in my question I am using `.xcworkspace` — RileyDev, Aug 09 '17 at 17:32
Sorry I was using my phone...If you've done all the above, then it always helps to do clean build, delete derived date, restart Xcode, mac...but I'm sure you've done those... — mfaani, Aug 09 '17 at 17:36
Does this answer your question? [Alamofire No Such Module (CocoaPods)](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32466073/alamofire-no-such-module-cocoapods) — Max MacLeod, Jun 25 '20 at 10:23

I think you are missing add Alamofire in your tests targets

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '9.0'

target 'AppName' do
  # Comment the next line if you're not using Swift and don't want to use dynamic frameworks
  use_frameworks!

  # Pods for AppName
  pod 'SwiftyJSON'
  pod 'Alamofire', '4.4.0'

  target 'AppNameTests' do
    inherit! :search_paths
    pod 'Alamofire', '4.4.0'
  end

  target 'AppNameUITests' do
    inherit! :search_paths
     pod 'Alamofire', '4.4.0'
  end

end

Better would be

You can also make a configuration with all pods that are commons to your targets

# Uncomment this line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '8.2'
# Uncomment this line if you're using Swift
use_frameworks!

# Define main pods.
def main_pods
    #Your common pods here
    pod 'Alamofire', '4.4.0'
end

target 'AppName' do
    main_pods
    #add here other pods specific for this target
end


target 'AppNameTests' do
    main_pods
    #add here other pods specific for this target
end

target 'AppNameUITests' do
    main_pods
    #add here other pods specific for this target
end

Hope this helps

unfortunately the problem still persists, thanks for the suggestion — RileyDev, Aug 09 '17 at 17:28

Run a Clean: Product > Clean then a Build.

If that doesn't work. How is this being used? Is it for your own code, or is it another module that requires you to have AlamoFire?

It is in another module which requires importing `AlamoFire` – RileyDev Aug 09 '17 at 20:53
It seems the swift file in the separate module does not have access to the Pod dependencies – RileyDev Aug 09 '17 at 20:53
