Ionic App Version

I can't install ionic native App Version.

When I write "ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-app-version" shows next message:

How can I fix it??

λ ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-app-version
> cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-app-version --save
× Running command - failed!
[ERROR] An error occurred while running cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-app-version --save (exit code 1):


    Error: Failed to fetch plugin cordova-plugin-app-version via registry.
    Probably this is either a connection problem, or plugin spec is incorrect.
    Check your connection and plugin name/version/URL.

UPDATE:

Thanks a lot!!

But the problem is not App Version, is with es6-promise-plugin in node_modules.

package.json

...
 "es6-promise-plugin": "file:node_modules/es6-promise-plugin",
...

this folder is empty, I dont know what I have to do.

The problem is not that it is empty, the problem is that it is a symbolic link that points to itself and therefore does not work. A loop is created.

If you delete the folder node_modules/es6-promise-plugin you will see that it is created again each time you type npm install...

I have seen this efect occurs adding the android platform, when try to do it for the cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing plugin, with the 5.2.1 version.

With the v5.2.0 that does not happen.

You can change your version:

ionic cordova plugin remove cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing --force
ionic cordova plugin add [email protected] --force

Or you can change in your package.json the version to use.

You can try cordovas --nofetch option to work around problems like this since cordova 7.0.0:

cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-appversion --nofetch

See the release notes for cordova 7.0.0 here to read more about the --nofetch mode.

You have a typo Here is how it should be

cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-appversion

Your mistake most likely results from the github repo being

https://github.com/Rareloop/cordova-plugin-app-version

But npm version name differs from the git repo name.
