My widget needs to get that from an API to generate its timeline. In the 3rd video of the Widget Code-Along the presenter says that the in-process foreground URLSessions should work as expected. My widget gets stuck at placeholder view and never shows the real data. Everything works fine and the widget renders as expected when I use some dummy data to generate the timeline. Anybody, any success with fetching data from the Internet in a widget?

I'm having trouble installing the pods in the Podfile for my project. cocoapods installs without any issues on the system ruby but running pod install crashes out badly. Did anybody succeed in getting cocoapods to run on the DTK?
