Error: Cannot find plugin.xml for plugin "phonegap-plugin-push". Please try adding it again

I am trying to add the phonegap-push-plugin as described in the doc.

I found this thread listing the problem but with no solution given.

As explain in the doc, I did a CLI in [My project folder]: ionic plugin add phonegap-plugin-push --variable SENDER_ID="[project id from Google Developper Console]"

At firts I had issue with Cordova and Cordova-android version. I updated Cordova from 6.3.0 to 6.4.0 and then did a CLI: ionic platform rm android to remove the existing version 5.2 Cordova-android project.

After that when I do a ionic info I get:

• Cordova CLI: 6.4.0
• Ionic Framework Version: 2.0.0-rc.0
• Ionic CLI Version: 2.1.0
• Ionic App Lib Version: 2.1.0-beta.1
• OS:
• Node Version: v6.7.0

And if I do a ionic platform ls I get: Available platforms:

• amazon-fireos ~3.6.3 (deprecated)
• android ~6.0.0
• blackberry10 ~3.8.0
• browser ~4.1.0
• firefoxos ~3.6.3
• webos ~3.7.0
• windows ~4.4.0
• wp8 ~3.8.2 (deprecated)

Now the only problem left when I launch ionic plugin add phonegap-plugin-push --variable SENDER_ID="[project id from Google Developper Console]" is this message:

Error: Cannot find plugin.xml for plugin "phonegap-plugin-push". Please try adding it again.

Any idea?

I've finally managed it by switching plugin name (phonegap-plugin-push) by full URL (https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-push):

ionic plugin add https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-push --variable SENDER_ID="[project id from Google Developper Console]

instead of:

ionic plugin add phonegap-plugin-push --variable SENDER_ID="[project id from Google Developper Console]
