Current behavior:

I have a Cordova project that is using cordova-plugin-firebasex. I want to use cli to build the iOS apps. I can build the app if I use the code.

I can reproduce the issue using the example project but using "cordova-ios": "github:apache/cordova-ios#6.1.x".

I get build errors on iOS. I am using cocoapods version 1.15.2. See error log below:

/Users/user/project/cordova/app/platforms/ios/MyApp/Plugins/cordova-plugin-firebasex/AppDelegate+FirebasePlugin.h:3:9: fatal error: 
      'FirebaseAuth-Swift.h' file not found
#import "FirebaseAuth-Swift.h"
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.

Expected behavior:

• Should build without errors.

Steps to reproduce:

• Go to the project and run cordova build ios --debug
