Error installing cordova plugin for SQLite

Question

I am trying to install plugin for SQLite using following command:

cordova plugin add https://github.com/litehelpers/Cordova-sqlite-storage.git

But I get the following:

C:\Users\om\sunapp>cordova plugin add https://github.com/litehelpers/Cordova-sqlite-storage.git
(node:8180) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 1): Failed
to fetch plugin https://github.com/litehelpers/Cordova-sqlite-storage.git via registry.
Probably this is either a connection problem, or plugin spec is incorrect.
Check your connection and plugin name/version/URL.

I am doing it for the first time and do not understand what the issue is. How do I solve this problem?

Answer 1

You don't have git install on ur system.

try

 git --version

to check if the git is installed or not.

If it does not print the version then you have to install git by following command :

sudo apt-get install git-all

After git is installed you can try adding your plugin.

cordova plugin add https://github.com/litehelpers/Cordova-sqlite-storage.git

Hope this helps. cheers :)
