I got the same error message when adding a local plugin: Error: Failed to get absolute path to installed module
.
Using the option --nofetch
([email protected]) fixed it:
cordova plugin add ../my-plugin --nofetch
According to https://github.com/apache/cordova-cli/blob/master/RELEASENOTES.md :
Use --nofetch
flag to fetch platforms and plugins using old fetching logic.
