Unable to install ‘File’ from ionic-native - dependencies related?

So I'm pretty fresh in Ionic2 so I'm getting some newbie troubles =/ I've searched pretty much everything and I can't find any examples for this.

What I want to do is to write a file to a certain directory of the device. I'm using Ionic2 and I've seen that there's a 'File API' that does what I need. But the problem is that I can't set it up.

Whenever I do $ npm install --save @ionic-native/file I get this output:

`[email protected] D:\project\
+-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY @angular/[email protected]
+-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY @ionic-native/core@^3.1.0
+-- @ionic-native/[email protected]
-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY [email protected]`

`npm WARN optional SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: fsevents@^1.0.0 (node_modules\chokidar\node_modules\fsevents):
npm WARN notsup SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: Unsupported platform for [email protected]: wanted {"os":"darwin","arch":"any"} (current: {"os":"win32","arch":"x64"})
npm WARN @ionic-native/[email protected] requires a peer of @ionic-native/core@^3.1.0 but none was installed.
npm WARN @ionic-native/[email protected] requires a peer of @angular/[email protected] but none was installed.
npm WARN @ionic-native/[email protected] requires a peer of [email protected] but none was installed.`

But whenever I try to use npm install for these missing dependencies, it keeps giving me the same errors over and over again. I'm quite lost here. I've tried to delete node_modules, cache clean and install and I still can't get the File to work.

If you could assist me here that would be great. I can provide other info if needed. Cheers!

I've fixed this problem.

1: Remove node_modules, clean cache and install all dependencies again

rm -rf node_modules
npm cache clean
npm install

2: In my problem, I needed ionic-native@core to be 3.1.0 or higher to be able to use ionic-native@file. So I run

npm install --save @ionic-native/core

And it got fixed.

I tried to install it in brand new project and npm also complained about @ionic-native/core missing. In fact, you should try to install it (and other dependencies) separately before installing @ionic-native/file.

Hope it helps!
