cocoapods-thumbs is a simple implementation of a graylist (whitelist + blacklist) for Podspecs.
When run, CocoaPods will check either the full Podfile or a single Podspec against votes stored in a server
and report them back to the user.
The server needs only to return a JSON (with a syntax similar to the one available at https://github.com/quadion/thumbs/blob/master/list.json).
While more elaborate servers providing means for users to vote with a UI can be created, using a GitHub repository with a single JSON file and voting through Pull Requests could suffice in most cases (this is what we do, our repo is https://github.com/quadion/thumbs).
## Installation
$ gem install cocoapods-thumbs
## Usage
### Setting the server
Set the server URL by calling:
$ pod thumbs server URL
example:
$ pod thumbs server https://raw.githubusercontent.com/quadion/thumbs/master/list.json
### Checking a full Podfile
On the same directory your Podfile is, run:
$ pod thumbs
### Checking a single Podspec
To check a single Podspec run:
$ pod thumbs NAME REQUIREMENT
Where `REQUIREMENT` is a version requirement with the same supported syntax as in a Podfile.
By default, this will use a platform os iOS 8.3. If you want to override the platform and version you can add:
$ pod thumbs NAME REQUIREMENT --platform=osx --version=10.10
Examples:
$ pod thumbs AFNetworking
$ pod thumbs AFNetworking '~> 2.5'
$ pod thumbs AFNetworking --platform=ios --version=8.3
