pod 'MessageKit'

If your project is still using Swift 3, you can add the following code to your Podfile:

target 'TARGET_NAME' do
    pod 'MessageKit'
    ...
    post_install do |installer|
        installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
            if target.name == 'MessageKit'
                target.build_configurations.each do |config|
                    config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = '4.0'
                end
            end
        end
    end
end

To integrate MessageKit using Carthage, add the following to your Cartfile:

github "MessageKit/MessageKit"

• cd to your project directory, initialize git, and Add MessageKit as a git submodule by running the following command:

  $ git submodule add https://github.com/MessageKit/MessageKit.git

• cd to the new MessageKit folder and trigger carthage update by the following command:

  $ carthage update --platform iOS

• Open MessageKit folder, and drag the MessageKit.xcodeproj into the Project Navigator of your application's Xcode project. It should appear nested underneath your application's blue project icon.

• Select the MessageKit.xcodeproj in the Project Navigator and verify the deployment target matches that of your application target.

• Next, select your application project in the Project Navigator (blue project icon), navigate to the target configuration window and select the application target.

• In the tab bar at the top of that window, open the "General" panel.

• Click on the + button under the "Embedded Binaries" section.

• You will see two different MessageKit.xcodeproj folders each with two different versions of the MessageKit.framework nested inside a Products folder.

• Select the top MessageKit.framework for iOS and the bottom one for OS X.

• Voila! Now you can import MessageKit and build the project.

Please have a look at the Quick Start guide, the FAQs and the MessageInputBar docs.
