Ionic Framework ionic-v3

Hello,

Using Ionic RC5 and cordova latest.

I want to use gimbal bridge plugin but in platform.ready it gives me error like.

[ts] Property ‘UAGimbal’ does not exist on type ‘Window’

Here is my code below.

constructor(public auth: Auth, public loadingCtrl: LoadingController, platform: Platform) {
    platform.ready().then(() => {
      // Okay, so the platform is ready and our plugins are available.
      // Here you can do any higher level native things you might need.
      StatusBar.styleDefault();
      Splashscreen.hide();

      window.UAGimbal.start(
            function(result){
                //Called on success
            },
            function(error){
                //Called on error such as permissions denied
            }
        );
    });

For more info about plugin will be here. https://github.com/urbanairship/cordova-gimbal-bridge

Can anybody advise me please?

Do

declare var UAGimbal:any

UAGimbl.start(
 (res) => console.log(res),
 (err) => console.log(err)
)

Hi Hartington,

Thanks for your quick response but once declaring variable under MyApp gives following error.

declare var UAGimbal:any;
[ts] Unexpected token. A constructor, method, accessor, or property was expected.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Platform } from 'ionic-angular';
import { StatusBar, Splashscreen } from 'ionic-native';

import { HomePage } from '../pages/home/home';
import { LoginPage} from '../pages/login/login';
import { Auth } from '../providers/auth';

import { LoadingController } from 'ionic-angular';

@Component({
    templateUrl: 'app.html'
})
export class MyApp {
       declare var UAGimbal:any;
       rootPage: any = LoginPage;
       loader: any;


        constructor(public auth: Auth, public loadingCtrl: LoadingController, platform: Platform) {
        platform.ready().then(() => {
        // Okay, so the platform is ready and our plugins are available.
        // Here you can do any higher level native things you might need.
        StatusBar.styleDefault();
        Splashscreen.hide();

        UAGimbl.start(
              (res) => console.log(res),
              (err) => console.log(err)
         );
  
    });

     this.presentLoading();
     this.auth.login().then((isLoggedIn)=> {
         if(isLoggedIn){
               this.rootPage = HomePage
               } else {
                      this.rootPage = LoginPage
               }

               this.loader.dismiss();
         });
    }

   presentLoading(){
       this.loader = this.loadingCtrl.create({
            content: "Please wait...."
      });

      this.loader.present();
   }
}

move the declare var bit to outside of the class
