HI,

I am using FileOpener plugin in order to open a based64 file converted to Blob.
The file is being created succesffuly in the download folder, but file opener fails to open it/

Error:

TypeError: Object(…) is not a function

at FileOpener.open (vendor.js:101647)
at 8.js:323
at t.invoke (polyfills.js:3)
at Object.onInvoke (vendor.js:4982)

at t.invokeTask (polyfills.js:3)
at Object.onInvokeTask (vendor.js:4973)
at t.invokeTask (polyfills.js:3)

MY code:

    let filename = "temp.pdf";
    this.file.writeFile(this.file.externalRootDirectory + '/Download/', filename, this.convertBaseb64ToBlob(data.file, 'application/pdf'), {replace: true})
    .then((fileEntry: FileEntry) => {

      console.log("File created!");
      debugger;
      let test = fileEntry.toURL();
      //Open with File Opener plugin


      this.fileOpener.open(test, 'application/pdf')
        .then(() => {
          console.log('File is opened');
          loading.dismiss();}
          ).
          catch(err =>  {
            debugger;
              console.error('Error openening file: ' + err);
              loading.dismiss();}
            );
    })
    .catch(function(err) {
      debugger;
      console.log(err);
      loading.dismiss();
  });

THanks!

I solved by downgrading file-opener to this version:
npm install @ionic-native/file-opener@4.20.0 --save
