i was having the same problems as you did, and here are my findout:

the problem lies with the Ionic-Native rather than the plugin.

it seems that Ionic-Native had somehow mis-assigned the input parameters to the plugin interface

photoLibrary.getLibrary = function (success, error, options) {...

when you are calling Ionic-Native with an 'option' provided

this.photoLib.getLibrary(option)

the 'option' was somehow assigned to 'success' rather than 'options' of the previous plugin interface ; which had cause the error

for a work-around, just call the Ionic-Native without an 'option'

this.photoLib.getLibrary()

@jing-zhou I'll give it a try. Thanks

We cannot use chunked subscription without using options :/

[Shtibel]

Same problem any fix for this?

[pumbosha]

Removing 'options' parameter is not a workaround, because we loss possibility to set important chunk parameters like itemsInChunk or chunkTimeSec. Some fix is needed here

[ibrahimAboelsuod]

Dropping the ionic interface and using the cordova code right away seems like a good workaround.

      cordova.plugins['photoLibrary'].getLibrary(
        result => {
          const library = result.library;
          console.log(library);
        },
        err => {
          console.log('Error occured');
        },
        {
          // optional options
          itemsInChunk: 2,
        }
      );

I do not fully understand the problem you are having. can you be more revealing ?

I leave the piece of code I use to you I tested ionic 3, 4. Working

import { PhotoLibrary, LibraryItem } from '@ionic-native/photo-library';
import { Platform} from 'ionic-angular';

public library: any;
public result : any;

this.platform.ready().then(() => {
this.library = [];
this.photoLibrary.requestAuthorization().then(() => {
this.photoLibrary.getLibrary().subscribe({
next: (chunk) => {
this.library = this.library.concat(chunk);

// To take top 100 images
//this.library = this.library.slice(0, 100); 

this.result = this.library;
},
error: err => { if(err.startsWith('Permission')){}  },
complete: () => { }
});
})
.catch(err => console.log('permissions weren\'t granted'));
}).catch(err => console.log('no platform') );
