Cannot find module "ionic-native" - Trying out Facebook Native Authentication

Question

I am very new to Ionic 2 and have been breaking my head into trying out native Facebook login authentication, I have tried few approaches below, and got no where !

• When I tried import {Facebook} from 'ionic-native'; I get the "Cannot find module "ionic-native"" error, however I can access the login method by using this Facebook.login(['email']) in my code.

• When I tired import {Facebook} from '@ionic-native/facebook'; [I have this installed using npm install @ionic-native/facebook --latest --save] , I am unable to access the login method and I get this error Typescript Error Property 'login' does not exist on type 'typeof Facebook'.

Can some one please direct me to a correct approach ??.

Pasted the error log below.

As was suggested by misha130 in a comment, I used

npm install --save ionic-native@2.5.1 

and it worked.
