While building the project we are getting the below error. Can you please help with this.

Command failed: ruby -e "require 'xcodeproj'; Xcodeproj::Config.new('/Users/garvitsingh/SAM Dev/platforms/ios/plugins-debug.xcconfig').merge(Xcodeproj::Config.new('/Users/garvitsingh/SAM Dev/node_modules/@nativescript-rtl/ui/platforms/ios/build.xcconfig')).save_as(Pathname.new('/Users/garvitsingh/SAM Dev/platforms/ios/plugins-debug.xcconfig'))"

I was able to resolved this with below step:
Install ruby in case it is missing

brew install ruby

add ruby to the path run

echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH"' >> /Users/user_name/.bash_profile

for compiler:

 export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/ruby/lib"
 export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/ruby/include"

Follow the instructions to set PATH. Replace user_name with your PC username:

echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH"' >> /Users/user_name/.bash_profile
echo 'export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/ruby/lib"' >> ~/.bash_profile
echo 'export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/ruby/include"' >> ~/.bash_profile

source ~/.bash_profile

Check your path:

ruby -v
ruby 2.6.8p205 (2021-07-07 revision 67951) [universal.x86_64-darwin21]
% which ruby
/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin/ruby

reinstall cocoapods or xcodeproj

sudo gem install cocoapods -v {version no.}
sudo gem install xcodeproj
