Retrieve device token from device using ionic framework

I am using ionic to develop an application and I need to get the device token for push notifications, but having trouble. The application isn't receiving notifications, but I still need to send device token when user login into the application (e.g. I need to get device token without receiving notifications). I tried using the Cordova push notification plugin also.

Here is the ng-Cordova document which is for getting current device token id.

copy and past it in your project controller.

In the given below line you can find notification parameter 

$rootScope.$on('$cordovaPush:notificationReceived', function(event, notification)

The notification is an object and it will have an regid field which provides you the current mobile device id you can make use of that like (posting to server, view in console.log(notification);)

To send the device token to you server you need just do 

var loginPost = {
                    "UserName":"Mike",
                    "PassWord":"xxxxxx",
                    "DeviceID":notification.regid
                  };

Using this loginPost variable object post to the server.

I've used phonegap-plugin-push plugin and its pretty easy and simple. For regID in the code on deviceReady event I've used.

var push = PushNotification.init({
        "android": {
            "senderID": "SENDER-ID"
        },
        "ios": {"alert": "true", "badge": "true", "sound": "true"}, 
        "windows": {} 
    });

    push.on('registration', function(data) {
        console.log("registration event");
        //here is your registration id
        console.log(data.registrationId);
    });

This is the link of the tutorial too

Hope it helps.
