Tag Manager


Tag Manager plugin for Android and iOS. It allows you to post usage information to your Google Tag Manager account.

This plugin defines a global TagManager Constructor.

Although in the global scope, it is not available until after the deviceready event.

document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
function onDeviceReady() {
    console.log(TagManager);
}

When being used in combination with AngularJS, it is recommended to use Angulartics with the Cordova GTM plugin (angulartics-gtm-cordova).
