Ionic 3 - network-information plugin - Object(…) is not a function(…)

Question

I need to implement network information plugin in an ionic 3 angular 4 project. I have installed a network plugin using

$ ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin         


        

Answer 1

Since the release of Ionic 4, Installing Ionic Native for Ionic 3 requires you to add @4 to get the latest compatible version. In this case, and all others involving Ionic 3, you should do it like this

npm install @ionic-native/network@4

for network,

npm install --save @ionic-native/barcode-scanner@4 

for Barcode Scanner,

npm install --save @ionic-native/network@4, 
npm install --save @ionic-native/bluetooth-le@4 

for BluetoothLE.
