Swift: Creating Framework dependencies

Question

iOS8:

I'm trying to create a Database framework (DBKit) that will be used amongst our apps. DBKit requires Couchbase (ObjC) and Alamofire (Swift) frameworks.

I'm trying to avoid using Umbrella framework as it's discouraged by Apple.

Questions:

When creating a framework, how do I tell the framework to use Couchbase and Alamofire within the Demo Project?
Is using Cocoa Pods to manage frameworks inside a framework a good idea?

I wonder which one did you use and what results did you get. I'm currently in the same situation and thinking about using pods in framework and am really confused. What do you suggest? — cameloper

Believe you should be linking to the respective external libraries from within your application and NOT your own framework.

For Couchbase, you can simply drag in the frameworks to the 'Supporting Files' folder within your iOS project.
