Error: Cordova-universal-links-plugin is not installed

[aswerdlow935]

Running this using ionic serve on a desktop browser works fine but when run on Ionic View on IOS an Cordova-universal-links-plugin is not installed shows up even after running the cordova add plugin --save command for that plugin.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for this wonderful demo. It helps greatly.

The demo runs properly on browser and Android (emulator). However it seems cordova-universal-links-plugin doesn't work for ios very well. "ionic build ios" gives the following error.

...

cordova prepare ios
Error: Cannot find module '../plugman/platforms/ios'

[ERROR] An error occurred while running cordova prepare ios (exit code 1).

Have you seen this before. Appreciate any suggestion to resolve it.

Hi Bill, glad to be of help.

Actually this is a known issue of cordova-universal-links and I don't know why it's still not fixed. Anyway you can find a temporary solution here.
