/**
* @name BackgroundFetch
* @description
* iOS Background Fetch Implementation. See: https://developer.apple.com/reference/uikit/uiapplication#1657399
* iOS Background Fetch is basically an API which wakes up your app about every 15 minutes (during the user's prime-time hours) and provides your app exactly 30s of background running-time. This plugin will execute your provided callbackFn whenever a background-fetch event occurs. There is no way to increase the rate which a fetch-event occurs and this plugin sets the rate to the most frequent possible value of UIApplicationBackgroundFetchIntervalMinimum -- iOS determines the rate automatically based upon device usage and time-of-day (ie: fetch-rate is about ~15min during prime-time hours; less frequently when the user is presumed to be sleeping, at 3am for example).
* For more detail, please see https://github.com/transistorsoft/cordova-plugin-background-fetch
*
* @usage
*
* ```typescript
* import { BackgroundFetch } from 'ionic-native';
*
*
* // When device is ready :
* platform.ready().then(() => {
*
* let config = {
* stopOnTerminate: false, // Set true to cease background-fetch from operating after user "closes" the app. Defaults to true.
* };
*
* BackgroundFetch.configure(() => {
console.log('[js] BackgroundFetch initiated');
// perform some ajax request to server here
You MUST called #finish so that native-side can signal completion of the background-thread to the os.
BackgroundFetch.finish();
* }, (error) => {
* console.log('- BackgroundFetch failed', error);
* }, config);
*
* });
*
* // Start the background-fetch API. Your callbackFn provided to #configure will be executed each time a background-fetch event occurs. NOTE the #configure method automatically calls #start. You do not have to call this method after you #configure the plugin
* BackgroundFetch.start();
*
* // Stop the background-fetch API from firing fetch events. Your callbackFn provided to #configure will no longer be executed.
* BackgroundFetch.stop();
*
* ```
* @interfaces
* BackgroundFetchConfig
