My question was:

I tried to run this code: cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-whitelist but what I keep getting is this:

Fetching plugin "cordova-plugin-whitelist" via plugin registry Error: 404 Not Found: cordova-plugin-whitelist at RegClient.<anonymous> (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/cordova/node_modules/cordova-lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/npm-registry-client/lib/request.js:304:14) at Request._callback (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/cordova/node_modules/cordova-lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/npm-registry-client/lib/request.js:246:65) at Request.self.callback (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/cordova/node_modules/cordova-lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/request/request.js:236:22) at Request.emit (events.js:98:17) at Request.<anonymous> (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/cordova/node_modules/cordova-lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/request/request.js:1142:14) at Request.emit (events.js:117:20) at IncomingMessage.<anonymous> (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/cordova/node_modules/cordova-lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/request/request.js:1096:12) at IncomingMessage.emit (events.js:117:20) at _stream_readable.js:943:16 at process._tickCallback (node.js:419:13)

Any ideas?

I actually found the answer to this myself:

From an official blog post, Cordova is moving their plugins to npm.

I installed the cordova-plugin-whitelist easily now with npm:

npm install cordova-plugin-whitelist
