"Error: Uncaught (in promise): TypeError: Object(...) is not a function" using UniqueDeviceID


I am developing a project on ionic v3.
I want to get a unique device id in my application.
I followed the instructions at https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/unique-device-id/

ts file:

import { UniqueDeviceID } from '@ionic-native/unique-device-id/ngx';   

constructor(private uniqueDeviceID: UniqueDeviceID) { }

login(){
  this.uniqueDeviceID.get()
   .then((uuid: any) => console.log(uuid))
   .catch((error: any) => console.log(error)); 
}

In app.module.ts :

import { UniqueDeviceID } from '@ionic-native/unique-device-id/ngx';

providers: [
    StatusBar,
    SplashScreen,
    UniqueDeviceID,
    { provide: ErrorHandler, useClass: IonicErrorHandler },
    AuthServiceProvider
  ]

When I am running it error occur:

Error: Uncaught (in promise): TypeError: Object(...) is not a function
TypeError: Object(...) is not a function

Solution

  • I see that you’re using Ionic v3.9.9 so you can’t use Ionic Native 5, because it requires Ionic v4.

    Update the @ionic-native/* dependencies in your package.json to "4.20.0" and run npm install. That should fix all the problems.
