Metadata version mismatch

[RibesAlexandre]

Hi !

When I try to load ionic cordova run ios --prod (or android), I get this error :

Error: Metadata version mismatch for module /Users/alexandre/Sites/app-mobiles/LeRugbynistere/LeRugbynistere/node_modules/@ionic-native/google-analytics/index.d.ts, found version 4, expected 3 at StaticSymbolResolver.getModuleMetadata (/Users/alexandre/Sites/app-mobiles/LeRugbynistere/LeRugbynistere/node_modules/@angular/compiler/bundles/compiler.umd.js:25755:34) at StaticSymbolResolver._createSymbolsOf (/Users/alexandre/Sites/app-mobiles/LeRugbynistere/LeRugbynistere/node_modules/@angular/compiler/bundles/compiler.umd.js:25543:46) at StaticSymbolResolver.getSymbolsOf (/Users/alexandre/Sites/app-mobiles/LeRugbynistere/LeRugbynistere/node_modules/@angular/compiler/bundles/compiler.umd.js:25524:14) at /Users/alexandre/Sites/app-mobiles/LeRugbynistere/LeRugbynistere/node_modules/@angular/compiler/bundles/compiler.umd.js:24381:30 at Array.forEach (native) at extractProgramSymbols (/Users/alexandre/Sites/app-mobiles/LeRugbynistere/LeRugbynistere/node_modules/@angular/compiler/bundles/compiler.umd.js:24380:79) at AotCompiler.analyzeModulesAsync (/Users/alexandre/Sites/app-mobiles/LeRugbynistere/LeRugbynistere/node_modules/@angular/compiler/bundles/compiler.umd.js:23936:47) at CodeGenerator.codegen (/Users/alexandre/Sites/app-mobiles/LeRugbynistere/LeRugbynistere/node_modules/@angular/compiler-cli/src/codegen.js:32:14) at Function.NgTools_InternalApi_NG_2.codeGen (/Users/alexandre/Sites/app-mobiles/LeRugbynistere/LeRugbynistere/node_modules/@angular/compiler-cli/src/ngtools_api.js:73:30) at Object.doCodegen (/Users/alexandre/Sites/app-mobiles/LeRugbynistere/LeRugbynistere/node_modules/@ionic/app-scripts/dist/aot/codegen.js:6:51)

I use version ^4.4.0 of your package.

Thanks for your support.

I'm getting the same thing.

As a hack, changing the version back to 3 within index.metadata.json seems to get past this error. I have not done any testing to validate whether that change has a negative impact.

I'm just sharing what I know at this point based on a Stackoverflow post that seemed to indicate that this approach might resolve the issue: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47115649/metadata-version-mismatch-with-angular-4.

I've try your solution and I get a blank screen when i run cordova ionic run ios (or android) --prod.

My application perfectly works whitout google Analytics.

I've just pushed the demo code (from readme package) on platform ready function.

EDIT : Just import ionic npm package make white screen... When I removed it, it works perfectly.

It seems like Firebase Analytics is where things have quickly moved to, so I don't think we'll get much support for Google Analytics in Ionic at this point.
