Invalid `Podfile` file: Invalid `RNFBDatabase.podspec` file: No such file or directory @ rb_sysopen - ../app/package.json - react native

Question

I installed firebase like this in my react native project-->

yarn add @react-native-firebase/database

and then when I tried installing the pods based on the documentation with this command -->

cd ios/ && pod install && cd ..

I got the error below:

> [!] Invalid `Podfile` file:  [!] Invalid `RNFBDatabase.podspec` file:
> No such file or directory @ rb_sysopen - ../app/package.json.

I've been at it for 2 days now, but I'm glad that I solved the problem. It was the missing dependency @react-native-firebase/app . The @react-native-firebase/database requires @react-native-firebase/app to be installed.
