Generating Ionic5 wrapper for Cordova plugin

[plotnik]

Hello,

I am trying to create Ionic5 wrapper for Cordova plugin, something similar to “@ionic-native/barcode-scanner”

I did the following:

• Cloned https://github.com/danielsogl/awesome-cordova-plugins

• Switched to v5 branch

• Created index.ts file with plugin information

• Run npm run build to get the following files in dist folder:
  ./ngx/index.js
  ./ngx/index.d.ts
  ./ngx/index.metadata.json
  ./index.js
  ./index.d.ts

• Copied generated files into Cordova plugin, see
  https://github.com/a-services/cordova-zebra-printer/tree/master/native

• Added “package.json” to “ngx” folder, similar to what “@ionic-native/barcode-scanner” has.

When trying to build a main project with Cordova plugin I get an error:

[error] Error: The target entry-point "@ionic-native/zebra-printer" has missing dependencies:

• @angular/core
• @ionic-native/core

When checking “@ionic-native/barcode-scanner” bundle, I see that there is also “bundle.js” file, but I am not sure how to properly generate it from the existing files.

So my question is, what is the correct way to create Ionic5 wrappers to get rid of this “missing dependencies” error?

Thanks.
