@UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {

+ func application(_ application: UIApplication, supportedInterfaceOrientationsFor window: UIWindow?) -> UIInterfaceOrientationMask {
+   return ScreenOrientation.getSupportedInterfaceOrientations()
+ }

No configuration required for this plugin.

A working example can be found here: robingenz/capacitor-plugin-demo

const lock = async () => {
  await ScreenOrientation.lock({ type: OrientationType.LANDSCAPE });
};

const unlock = async () => {
  await ScreenOrientation.unlock();
};

const getCurrentOrientation = async () => {
  const result = await ScreenOrientation.getCurrentOrientation();
  return result.type;
};
