Undefined watchHeading in compass plugin for ionic/phonegap

758 views Asked by At

Well, I'm working on a small project made in ionic. I'm using ngCordova to add some cool plugins, like device orientation for compass. But I can't force it to work. I already installed ngCordova and added plugins (geolocation plugin works). I'm out of ideas why this doesn't work.

Code looks like this:

.controller('GeoLocationCtrl', function($scope, $cordovaGeolocation, $cordovaDeviceOrientation, $ionicPlatform, $document) {
$scope.lat = 0;
$scope.long = 0;
$scope.position = {};


$ionicPlatform.ready(function() {
var options = {frequency: 1000}; // Update every 1 second
var watch2 = $cordovaDeviceOrientation.watchHeading(options); ///LINE 53!

watch2.promise.then(function (result) { /* unused */
    },
    function (err) {
        // An error occurred
    }, function (position) {
        // Heading comes back in
        // position.magneticHeading
        $scope.position = position.magneticHeading;
    });

    $cordovaDeviceOrientation.clearWatch(watch2.watchId)
        .then(function (result) {
            // Success!
        }, function (err) {
            // An error occurred
        });

  });
})

But all I get is this:

ripple.js:37

Thanks for any help!
