I am trying to install cordova plugin for camera to use in Ionic 2 application, but I am keep getting error:

Failed to install 'cordova-plugin-camera': CordovaError: Version of installed plugin: "cordova-plugin-compat@1.0.0" does not satisfy dependency plugin requirement "cordova-plugin-compat@^1.1.0". Try --force to use installed plugin as dependency.

I tried removing cordova plugin compat and reinstalling it since I found many answers about this error on stackoverflow, but none of them worked for me. I also tried it with --force flag, but no success.

Also I tried: cordova plugin remove cordova-plugin-compat --force But I get an error:

Error: Cannot find plugin.xml for plugin "cordova-plugin-camera". Please try adding it again.

I really hope anyone can help me since I am stuck here... Thank you in beforehand.
