inAppBrowser events not being listened

[elbuki]

I'm having a hard time when I try to catch events from the browser in the application controller, none of the four events seems to be catched by the $on statement.

Here's my code:

www/js/app.js

angular.module('starter', ['ionic', 'starter.controllers',
                           'starter.services', 'ngCordova'])

// ...

.config(function($cordovaInAppBrowserProvider) {

  var options = {
      location: 'no',
      clearcache: 'no',
      toolbar: 'no'
  };

  $cordovaInAppBrowserProvider.setDefaultOptions(options);
});

www/templates/tab-dash.html

<ion-view view-title="Dashboard">
  <ion-content class="padding">
    <button type="button" name="button" ng-click="openLink()">Open</button>
  </ion-content>
</ion-view>

www/js/controllers.js

angular.module('starter.controllers', [])

.controller('DashCtrl', function($scope, $rootScope, $cordovaInAppBrowser) {

  $scope.openLink = function() {

    $cordovaInAppBrowser.open('http://www.google.co.cr', '_blank');
  };

  $rootScope.$on('$cordovaInAppBrowser:loadstart', function(e, event){

    console.log('start');
  });

  $rootScope.$on('$cordovaInAppBrowser:loadstop', function(e, event){

    console.log('stop');
  });

  $rootScope.$on('$cordovaInAppBrowser:loaderror', function(e, event){

    console.log('error');
  });

  $rootScope.$on('$cordovaInAppBrowser:exit', function(e, event){

    console.log('exit');
  });
});

Even if I define the listener for every event, it doesn't seem to work. By the way, I'm using Ionic 2.1.8 with Angular 1.

Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Not really, I haven't found a solution since.

Hi,Buddy,I added the plugin of InAppBrowser in my project, but when I run my project, the other plugins all did't work and myApp also became strange. how can I do?

@TomYiCL Sorry, this issue is about the InAppBrowser, not plugins in general. You should post your question on the Ionic Forum or Stack Overflow to get pointers that could solve your problem.
