Pod installation problem in react-native 0.24.1

See original GitHub issue

Got the following error message:

[!] Invalid `React.podspec` file: no implicit conversion of nil into String.

 #  from /Users/Public/Projects/pall/node_modules/react-native/React.podspec:3
 #  -------------------------------------------

It’s no problem in 0.23

@mikefowler Thanks. I did:

Upgrade ruby from 2.1.2 to 2.3.0
Upgrade react-native from 0.24.0 to 0.25-rc
Upgrade cocoapods

gem install cocoapods --pre

Reset pod

pod repo remove master pod setup pod install

Everything’s fine then.

Verified that this is still occurring (on my machine) with 0.25-rc.

A short-term workaround is to change __dir__ to File.dirname(__FILE__), but my Ruby knowledge ends there.

Edit: my suspicion is that this has to do with the Ruby version being used locally by CocoaPods.
