Manejo de Base de Datos SQLite con $cordovaSQLite en Ionic Framework

app.js

var db = null;

var example = angular.module('starter', ['ionic', 'ngCordova'])
.run(function($ionicPlatform, $cordovaSQLite) {
	$ionicPlatform.ready(function() {
		if(window.cordova && window.cordova.plugins.Keyboard) {
			cordova.plugins.Keyboard.hideKeyboardAccessoryBar(false);
		}
		if(window.StatusBar){
			StatusBar.styleDefault();
		}
		db = $cordovaSQLite.openDB({ name: 'app.db' });
		$cordovaSQLite.execute(db,"CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS people (id integer primary key, firstname text, lastname text)");
	});
});

example.controller("ExampleController", function($scope, $cordovaSQLite) {

	$scope.insert = function(firstname, lastname) {
		var query = "INSERT INTO people (firstname, lastname) VALUES (?,?)";
		$cordovaSQLite.execute(db,query,[firstname,lastname]).then(function(result) {
			console.log("INSERT ID -> " + result.insertId);
		}, function(error) {
			console.error(error);
		});
	};

	$scope.select = function(lastname) {
		var query = "SELECT firstname, lastname FROM people WHERE lastname = ?";
		$cordovaSQLite.execute(db,query,[lastname]).then(function(result) {
			if(result.rows.length > 0) {
				console.log("SELECTED -> " + result.rows.item(0).firstname + " " + result.rows.item(0).lastname);
			} else {
				console.log("NO ROWS EXIST");
			}
		}, function(error) {
			console.error(error);
		});
	};

});
