get device uuid ionic ios app

Issue

In my app i want to get the device uuid or udid so that i can save it in my database.

for my android app when i run this code in my js file

.factory('Service', function($state) {
  var service = {
    login: function(user, new_device_status) {
      if(window.cordova) {
        var params = {
          organization: user.orgCode.$modelValue,
          email: user.email.$modelValue,
          password: user.password.$modelValue,
          device_uuid: window.device.platform == 'Android' ? window.device.uuid : window.device.udid,
          new_device: new_device_status
        };
     }
   }
  }
})

it works and returns the uuid of the device but in my ios app when i try this it doesnt work or when i try

window.device.udid

it still doesnt work in my ios simulator. what can i do?

Solution

Solution 1 :

Add device plugin :

cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.device

In your controller :

module.controller('MyCtrl', function($scope, $cordovaDevice) {
  var uuid = $cordovaDevice.getUUID();
});
