How do you install a pod's sub spec without installing the whole pod?

Question

I just want one subspec of one library, for example, the nimbus podspec is as follows: `pod search Nimbus` ``` -> Nimbus (1.0.0) An iOS framework whose growth is bounded by O(documentation). - Homepage: http://docs.nimbuskit.info/index.html - Source: https://github.com/jverkoey/nimbus.git - Versions: 1.0.0, 0.9.3, 0.9.2, 0.9.1, 0.9.0 [master repo] - Sub specs: - Nimbus/Core (1.0.0) - Nimbus/Badge (1.0.0) - Nimbus/CSS (1.0.0) - Nimbus/AttributedLabel (1.0.0) - Nimbus/Interapp (1.0.0) - Nimbus/Launcher (1.0.0) - Nimbus/Models (1.0.0) - Nimbus/NetworkControllers (1.0.0) - Nimbus/NetworkImage (1.0.0) - Nimbus/Overview (1.0.0) - Nimbus/PagingScrollView (1.0.0) - Nimbus/Photos (1.0.0) - Nimbus/Operations (1.0.0) - Nimbus/Operations/JSON (1.0.0) - Nimbus/WebController (1.0.0) ``` I just want to install the Nimbus/core, what should the `podfile` contain?

Accepted Answer

just use following line in your pod spec

```
pod 'Nimbus/Core', '= 1.0.0'
```

Complete pod spec sample:

```
platform :iOS,'6.0'

pod 'Nimbus/Core', '= 1.0.0'
```
