cocoapods - How to set the Legacy Swift Versions for each Pod in Podfile

Question

I am currently setting the legacy in the Podfile to SWIFT_VERSION = 2.3, but some of the libraries I am using are Swift 3.0, which means that I need to manually set the legacy for all Swift 3.0 pods legacy to No on each pod install. How do I configure each pod version in the Podfile installer?

This is what I am setting:

post_install do |installer|
 installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
     target.build_configurations.each do |config|
         config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = '2.3'
     end
 end
end

If I set config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = '3.0', than we have issues with Swift 2.3 pods. The best solution is if we set each pod legacy version separately to avoid having to manually set it.

I found this while searching how to set the SWIFT_VERSION to 3.2 for Xcode 9.

Using the AirMapSDK which itself and multiple dependencies need 3.2 instead of 4.0 Here is an example of how to set pod specific SWIFT_VERSION for others that may come across this question.

post_install do |installer|
  installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
    if ['AirMapSDK', 'PhoneNumberKit', 'Lock', 'RxSwift', 'RxSwiftExt', 'RxCocoa', 'RxDataSources', 'ProtocolBuffers-Swift'].include? target.name
      target.build_configurations.each do |config|
        config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = '3.2'
      end
    end
  end
end

You can change the if array to specify whatever pod you need to set the version too.
