My Ionic app throws a "has no method 'startInit'" error when using OneSignal

In my Ionic smart phone app, I'm using OneSignal to handle push notifications. According to some OneSignal docs, I need to initialize their plugin like this:

window.plugins.OneSignal.init(
    "b2f7f966-d8cc-11e4-bed1-df8f05be55ba", 
    {googleProjectNumber: "703322744261"}, 
    notificationOpenedCallback
);

This works for me. But other documentation says I should do this:

window.plugins.OneSignal
    .startInit("YOUR_APPID", "YOUR_GOOGLE_PROJECT_NUMBER_IF_ANDROID")
    .handleNotificationReceived(function(jsonData) {
        alert("Notification received:\n" + JSON.stringify(jsonData));
        console.log('Did I receive a notification: ' + JSON.stringify(jsonData));
    })
    .endInit();

This is what I would prefer to do, since I really want that "handleNotificationReceived" option, not just the "notificationOpenedCallback" option. But it's not working for me. I get a Javascript error saying the method "startInit" doesn't exist in the "window.plugins.OneSignal" object. It's right. There is no method "startInit", so how can I use the code that calls it?

So what am I doing wrong? Am I not using the latest version of OneSignal? I just ran "ionic plugin add onesignal-cordova-plugin --save", so I should be using their latest version. (It installs version ~1.13.2, according to my config.xml).

How can I fix this?

The newer 2.+ version of the SDK is not out yet. You should refer to the old docs for this here

EDIT

The new version of the SDK is now out and you can get it here. Also new docs are here.

Was getting the same issue. You could try reinstalling the plugins or add the platform again android/ios. That worked for me.
