Answer 1

As per my experience, you need to create a custom plugin and use your .aar file in your custom plugin.

Follow the below steps to use ur .aar file in Ionic project.

Step 1: Create a plugin.

You can use Plugman to create your custom plugin.

Step 2: Setup All Android dependencies

Setup all required dependency for your .aar file to support native dependencies through Gradle.

Step 3: Configure APIs

Need to define required wrapper API in your .JS file which is exported to the Cordova application.

By these 3 steps, you will get your .aar functionality through custom plugin wrapper and expose all required methods for Ionic app.
