tonymccallie opened a new issue #442: I'm getting "plugin_not_installed" errors on iOS devices with Ionic 4
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-camera/issues/442
 
 
   ## Problem
   I'm trying to get the plugin to work on iOS 12.2 and have tried compiling through Ionic's AppFlow and through my local XCode.
   
   
   
   ### What is expected to happen?
   I should be able to access Camera functions.
   
   
   ### What does actually happen?
   I keep getting:
   `[Warning] Native: tried calling Camera.getPicture, but the Camera plugin is not installed. (cordova.js, line 1732)
   [Warning] Install the Camera plugin: 'ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-camera' (cordova.js, line 1732)
   [Error] ERROR – Error: Uncaught (in promise): plugin_not_installed
   Error: Uncaught (in promise): plugin_not_installed`
   
   
   
   ## Information
   I installed the plugin like so:
   ionic cordova platform add ios
   ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-camera
   
   I've added these to my config.xml
   `<edit-config file="*-Info.plist" mode="merge" target="NSCameraUsageDescription">
           <string>need camera access to take pictures</string>
       </edit-config>
       <edit-config file="*-Info.plist" mode="merge" target="NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription">
           <string>need photo library access to get pictures from there</string>
       </edit-config>
       <edit-config file="*-Info.plist" mode="merge" target="NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription">
           <string>need location access to find things nearby</string>
       </edit-config>
       <edit-config file="*-Info.plist" mode="merge" target="NSPhotoLibraryAddUsageDescription">
           <string>need photo library access to save pictures there</string>
       </edit-config>`
   
   And I installed the recommended npm packages. Those seem to be working, but the plugin does not. I have removed the platform and the plugin, reinstalled them. Removed node_modules and package-lock.json and re-ran npm -i. All to no avail.
   
   
   I can see the camera plugin being added in the output of the AppFlow build, but I don't have access to it. 
   
   What am I missing?
   
   
   ### Version information
   I'm using Ionic 4 on macOS 10.14.4 with XCode 10.2 and an iPhone Xs with iOS 12.2, but mostly I use Ionic AppFlow to compile my IPAs. I have other plugins working fine (like Geolocation)
