Bug: Type Error in @ionic-native/web-socket-server

[bcjat]

I'm submitting a ... [x] bug report [ ] feature request [ ] support request

Current behavior: When using types for cordova-plugin-websocket-server from @ionic-native/web-socket-server shows following error.

ERROR TypeError: window.cordova.plugins.wsserver[fnName] is not a function at Observable._subscribe (home-home-module-es2015.js:30) at Observable._trySubscribe (vendor-es2015.js:109405) at Observable.subscribe (vendor-es2015.js:109391) at HomePage.initServer (home-home-module-es2015.js:221) at Object.eval [as handleEvent] (HomePage.html:21) at handleEvent (vendor-es2015.js:74622) at callWithDebugContext (vendor-es2015.js:76241) at Object.debugHandleEvent [as handleEvent] (vendor-es2015.js:75876) at dispatchEvent (vendor-es2015.js:61709) at vendor-es2015.js:73554

the above error link to node_modules > @ionic-native > web-socket-server > ngx > index.js:14:22

Expected behavior: Should start local socket server.

Steps to reproduce: clone repository and run on emulator, using debugger the error will be shown.

@Component({

  styleUrls: ["home.page.scss"],
})
export class HomePage {
  constructor(private webserver: WebSocketServer, private platform: Platform) {
    this.platform.ready().then(() => {
     this.initServer();
    });
  }

  initServer() {
    this.webserver.start(8888, {}).subscribe({
      next: (server) =>
        console.log(`Listening on ${server.addr}:${server.port}`),
      error: (error) => {
        console.log("error occured: " + error);
      },
    });

    this.webserver.watchOpen().subscribe(
      (data) => {
        console.log(data);

    });
  }
}
