# 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.
