[firebase-analytics] Analytics without ad id support

[tobiAdBr]

Hey there it seems like the parameter $NSFirebaseAnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport = true
does not change anything when I prepare ios console log:

Using default Firebase/Analytics with Ad Ids. May require App Tracking Transparency. Not allowed for Kids apps.
You may set variable $NSFirebaseAnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport=true in Podfile to use analytics without ad ids.

Maybe the reason is that the Podfile merge adds the variable to the bottom.

My Podfile is located at App_Resources/iOS/Podfile

I am experiencing the same issue. @triniwiz any insight?

[triniwiz]

iirc once NSFirebaseAnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport is set it should choose the correct pod, I may need to update the log

[tobiAdBr]

I think when I checked the used Pod, it did not use the correct one. Im not that good with Pod-Files but I think the merge is a problem. It will never use the correct pod if the boolean is set after the check. I can check it again and report :)

[tobiAdBr]

Just checked this issue again, no matter what I define in the Podfile I always get this: Firebase/Analytics.
For now I have to manually comment out 'if defined?($NSFirebaseAnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport)'.

@triniwiz any news on this issue ?

Resolved in 2.2.9

Hey @NathanWalker and @triniwiz thanks a lot for the bugfix. Sadly im still experiencing a problem. The fix does not work if I build after 'npm install'. Also to mention the new hook checks for '$NSFirebaseAnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport=true' but the wiki suggests to write '$NSFirebaseAnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport = true' in the podfile. This could be problematic for other users (maybe there is a trim somewhere that im not aware of :)). If I do 'prepare ios' before the 'ns build ios' it works fine. My commands are: ns clean, npm i, ns build ios. Maybe there is a problem with the new hook.

I also have this problem now.

I am using @nativescript/firebase-analytics and core 2.3.4 and added the $NSFirebaseAnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport = true (with spaces and without spaces) to App_Resources/iOS/Podfile .
But when I do a fresh build for iOS, it still see:

...
Installing FirebaseAnalytics (9.5.0)
...

Problem still happening!

Here is how to fix it...
You have to define the variable like this:
$NSFirebaseAnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport=true

Not like this (with space around the = sign):
$NSFirebaseAnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport = true
