How to get LocalNotification PhoneGap plugin working?

I'm trying to get the LocalNotification plugin working (for either ios or android), but am having trouble finding the right documentation. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong or what I need to add? I'm trying the following:

Added the plugin using the following from the command line

phonegap local plugin add https://github.com/katzer/cordova-plugin-local-notifications.git

Tried both of the following in the config.xml:

<plugin name="LocalNotification" value="LocalNotification" />

and 

<feature name="LocalNotification">
    <param name="ios-package" value="LocalNotification"/>
</feature>

Added local-notification.js to the www folder and included it in the index.html file with the following:

<script src="local-notification.js"></script>

And have the following to use the plugin in the controller (I'm using Angular):

$scope.localNotify = function(){
        var d = new Date();
        d = d.getTime() + 5*1000; //60 seconds from now
        d = new Date(d);
        window.plugins.localNotification.add({
            date: d,
            repeat:'daily',
            message: 'This just fired after a minute!',
            hasAction: true,
            badge: 1,
            id: '1',
            sound:'horn.caf',
            background:'app.background',
            foreground:'app.running'
        });
    };

I see in the readme here https://github.com/simplec-dev/LocalNotification/blob/45867c94ee96aaa90966d22b62acabfc03807cb3/README.md they say to modify CDVPlugin.m and CDVPlugin.h, but I don't see these files anywhere in my project.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

For the record (cause I was stuck here). You were building a PhoneGap iOS project not a Cordova iOS project and then using a Cordova (only) project. To build in PhoneGap:
phonegap build ios

To build in Cordova: cordova platform add ios

The PhoneGap plugin you referenced: https://github.com/hiattp/Phonegap-LocalNotification

Is the most uptodate so use that!

You need to install Cordova device plugin:

phonegap local plugin add org.apache.cordova.device

Got it working! I'm not sure if it's because the version I was using was meant for an earlier version of PhoneGap, but I found this repo https://github.com/hiattp/Phonegap-LocalNotification, followed the directions there, and now it's working. Didn't need to make any edits to config.xml, add a localnotification.js file, or make any changes to index.html. Just followed the directions at that link and it works!
