I'm trying to manually integrate ffmpegkit.framework into my Expo Bare Workflow iOS app (built with React Native + native modules via Xcode) because the ffmpegkit will be deprecated and the binaries will be deleted.

So far

• I've downloaded the latest LTS release of FFmpegkit from here.
• I've created 3 files: FFmpegModule.m , FFmpegModule.swift and SoundBud-Bridging-Header.
• Added the frameworks to my projectDir/ios manually, which shows in my XCode under projectDir/Frameworks
• Added all the frameworks into "Frameworks, Libraries and Embedded Content" and make them "Embed and Sign"
• As Framework Search Path in Project Settings, I've set it to "$(PROJECT_DIR)" and recursive
• In "Build Phases" I've added all the frameworks under "Embed Frameworks",set the destination to "Frameworks" and checked "Code Sign on Copy" to all of them and unchecked "Copy Only When Installing"
• Also under "Link Binary With Libraries" I've added all the frameworks and marked them "Required"

Here are the errors I'm getting:

• The framework is not recognized by Swift (No such module 'ffmpegkit')
• A build cycle error: Cycle inside SoundBud; building could produce unreliable results. Target 'SoundBud' has copy command from '.../Frameworks/ffmpegkit.framework' ...

Below you can see my swift file and the ffmpegkit module file: Swift:

import Foundation
import ffmpegkit
import React

@objc(FFmpegModule)
class FFmpegModule: NSObject, RCTBridgeModule {

static func moduleName() -> String {
return "FFmpegModule"
}

@objc
func runCommand(_ command: String, resolver resolve: @escaping RCTPromiseResolveBlock, 
rejecter reject: @escaping RCTPromiseRejectBlock) {
FFmpegKit.executeAsync(command) { session in
  let returnCode = session?.getReturnCode()
  resolve(returnCode?.getValue())
}
}

@objc
static func requiresMainQueueSetup() -> Bool {
return false
}
}

and the module:

framework module ffmpegkit {

header "AbstractSession.h"
header "ArchDetect.h"
header "AtomicLong.h"
header "Chapter.h"
header "FFmpegKit.h"
header "FFmpegKitConfig.h"
header "FFmpegSession.h"
header "FFmpegSessionCompleteCallback.h"
header "FFprobeKit.h"
header "FFprobeSession.h"
header "FFprobeSessionCompleteCallback.h"
header "Level.h"

I can provide you with more info if you need it. I've been trying non stop for 7 days and it's driving me crazy. I would appreciate any help greatly
