How to fix cocoapod .modulemap file not found

Question

When I try to build my project, I get a compile time error saying that a "Module map file" for my pod cannot be found and that I am missing a "SwiftShimes" module.

This is weird because all my modulemap files are where they should be when I install my pods.

I am using Xcode 10.2 and Cocoapods 1.6.1.

I have tried the following ->

• deintegrating cocoapods from my project
• cleaning the project
• deleted ModuleCache and DerivedData
• restarting my computer

This is the type of error I am getting ->

Module map file '/Users/kaunamohammed/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/OutNow-gxdxvzwmnijmrlajtbtyclkhrgqs/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/CodableFirebase/CodableFirebase.modulemap' not found

I expect my project to build properly but this is not the case and I am not sure what else to do.

This is what my Podfile looks like

platform :ios, '10.0'

workspace 'OutNow'

target 'OutNow' do
  use_modular_headers!
  #Pods for OutNow
  pod 'Instabug'
  pod 'SwiftMessages'
  pod 'CodableFirebase'
  pod 'Firebase/Core'
  pod 'Firebase/Auth'
  pod 'Firebase/Storage'
  pod 'Firebase/Firestore'
  pod 'Firebase/Messaging'
  pod 'Firebase/DynamicLinks'
  pod 'MarqueeLabel/Swift'
  pod 'RxSwift', '4.4.2'
  pod 'RxCocoa', '4.4.2'
  pod 'Kingfisher', '5.3.1'
  pod 'InstantSearchClient', '6.0'
  pod 'CoordinatorLibrary', '1.0.5'
  pod 'UIScrollView-InfiniteScroll', '1.1.0'

  target 'OutNowTests' do
    inherit! :search_paths
    # Pods for testing
  end

end

In case it helps anyone else, I was able to solve this issue a different way. I was accidentally opening up my .xcproject instead of my .xcworkspace. When I opened the correct file, the error went away.
