# Ionic Native
Ionic Native is a curated set of wrappers for Cordova plugins that make adding any native functionality you need to your [Ionic](http://ionicframework.com/), Cordova, or Web View mobile app easy.
### Promises and Observables
Ionic Native wraps plugin callbacks in a Promise or [Observable](https://gist.github.com/staltz/868e7e9bc2a7b8c1f754), providing a common interface for all plugins and ensuring that native events trigger change detection in Angular 2.
```
import {Geolocation} from 'ionic-native';
Geolocation.getCurrentPosition().then(pos => {
console.log('lat: ' + pos.coords.latitude + ', lon: ' + pos.coords.longitude);
});
let watch = Geolocation.watchPosition();
watch.subscribe(pos => {
console.log('lat: ' + pos.coords.latitude + ', lon: ' + pos.coords.longitude);
});
// to stop watching
watch.unsubscribe();
```
### Runtime Diagnostics
Spent way too long diagnosing an issue only to realize a plugin wasn't firing or installed? Ionic Native lets you know what the issue is and how you can resolve it.
## Installation
Run following commmand to install ionic-native in your project.
```
npm install ionic-native --save
```
## Plugin Missing?
Let us know or submit a PR! Take a look at [the Developer Guide](https://github.com/driftyco/ionic-native/blob/master/DEVELOPER.md) for more on how to contribute. :heart:
