Hi
I am looking to integrate BarCode scanner plugin "phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner" in my existing ios project. Plugin has been installed successfully but when I am calling scan() method. It is throwing an error
Error: $cordovaBarcodeScanner.scan is not a function. (In '$cordovaBarcodeScanner.scan()', '$cordovaBarcodeScanner.scan' is undefined)
Although Object.getOwnPropertyNames($cordovaBarcodeScanner) method returning "encode,decode". I do not understand where is scan() method gone.
Plugin working fine in newly created project not in my existing project. What could be possible reason please?
thanks
Yousuf

You can share your config.xml or part of the codes here so community can have a look at it.
Surround it with <code></code> tag.
Thanks.

You can have neither 'splash' elements nor 'feature' elements. Use gap:splash and plugins instead.
See the PGB documentation (link at top of this forum).

@Petra V.
I am using ionic framework that build on top of phonegap. These tags are supported in their framework.
My problem is with BarcodeScanner only. Somehow it is not working in my existing project.

That's because the plugin isn't included.
Look at your Plugins tab at your ap's PGB page. Do you see any plugins listed?

I am looking to integrate BarCode scanner plugin "phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner" in my existing ios project......which is not listed in your code above. Is it in your config.xml and on said Plugins tab?

In that case, you're a bit lost.
This is the Phonegap Build forum, the place for developers who don't install plugins, SDK's, Phonegap, etc.
You may probably want to ask your question at the Phonegap Google Group or at Stackoverflow.
