It doesn’t work because it uses window.sqlitePlugin. Is that the one from https://github.com/brodysoft/Cordova-SQLitePlugin?

@max Hello Ionic team and thank you very much for a killer framework!!!
Keep up the good work!

I am wondering if you guys know of a cordova plugin to check if the app is installed on the device?

I found one that checks if app scheme is implemented on iOS - CanOpen

Any thoughts?

Thanks a lot.

Never mind. There is a appAvaliability plugin already in ng-cordoca

Hi,

first i want to say thank you for all the great work on ionic and/or ngCordova ! :slight_smile:

Right now i am testing ngCordova (network/camera/barcode) and it works really good and its easy too handle. I wonder if it is possible to use it for NFC-plugins like “PhoneGap NF Plugin” in the near future?

Is there a ionic/Angular way to deal with NFC on android devices?

Hey @mav. I don’t think there is a built in plugin for that yet, but it’s certainly possible. You’d just need to wrap that plugin with an Angular service (see the other ones for an example).

35

I really want to thank you all for your work: using it, I ended up with a small exercise to measure the noise of the accelerometer of my mobile. The snippet is at https://github.com/carlok/ANG/

I hope it could be useful to newcomers like me. Have a nice day.

I’m really loving Ionic, it is so great. But I’m having a problem with implementing ngCordova into my application. All of the functions don’t seem to work correctly on my phone. Is there any sample application on github that I can run on my phone? The https://github.com/driftyco/ng-cordova demo doesn’t run on my phone properly. If there were a demo app with ngCordova built in that would be great! Thanks so much!

37

Hey @jeresnine. Do you have more info on the device or platform you are running it on? Some functions (like camera) just don’t work on the simulators.

38

I have a Samsung s4 with android 4.4.2 the ionic apps I build work great but I can’t seen to use the ngcordova plugins. It doesn’t give any errors when I call them, they just don’t do anything. I think I might have set something up wrong, but other sample apps I found on github also do not work on my phone.

39

I am trying really hard to get the ngCordova plugins to work. Do we have a working git repo somewhere? I have phaggood’s repo on my Nexus 4 running android 4.4.4. for me only the geolocation function is working. Could you please point me in the right direction.

Thanks

Yes +1 on this. I have been having a really hard time getting this setup. Seems like very important functionality to have turn-key.

41

Is it possible to use ng-cordova with phonegap build ?

42

thank you max.
i love the new cordova plugin wrappers. i’ve read each and every official doc about them :smile:.
Please could you give an example to use the $cordovaPush plugin.
thanks in advance

How to retrieve all contacts from phone in ng-cordova.

This is great! How do you guys feel about having $cordovaDialogs fall back to regular js alert/confirm if the plugin is not present. It would be helpful when developing in browser.
