@ChrisDevinePimss

are you have already installed plugin before? or you try to install in new project?

[Chris-Devine]

@WuglyakBolgoink

I installed into new project and it worked but prevented me from installing "cordova-plugin-network-information". So i had to uninstall it so i could install the rest of my plugins.

I then tried to reinstall it once i had installed all the other plugins but got the errors above

[WuglyakBolgoink]

@Chris-Devine can you give me this information from

ionic info

I check this problem today night.

[WuglyakBolgoink]

@ChrisDevinePimss / @Chris-Devine with which platforms will you work? Android or iOS?

[ChrisDevinePimss]

yes thats the plan @WuglyakBolgoink

[Medtrack]

I can confirm this bug on Android.
Cordova version 8.0.0 and cordova-android@~7.0.0
Just create a script or run the following commands:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
currentDir=$(pwd)
cordova create hello com.example.hello HelloWorld
cd hello
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-iroot --save
cordova platform add android
cd $currentDir

And this is the error:

$ mkhello

@Medtrack I have added working solution for this issue #1. Try removing .git folder from package folder under node_modules.

If that doesn't works, delete node_modules and plugins folders and package-lock.json file and reinstall plugins using npm i in your project folder.
Note - You have to remove .git folder(as mentioned above) before building android apk file.

@ChrisDevinePimss you can also try this solution. I too got similar errors during initial installations of this plugin after latest changes.

[WuglyakBolgoink]

@Chris-Devine @SujitSingh please check with new v0.7.0. npm publish was without errors.

[SujitSingh]

The error reported in this issue is related to the extra .git folder which has been resolved in #6
