Plugin vue-cli-plugin-electron-builder does not have a generator to invoke

[enbermudas]

Describe the bug
I just created a fresh project with the @vue/cli and the installed the plugin by running vue add electron-builder but the next thing appears in my terminal:

�  Installing vue-cli-plugin-electron-builder...

yarn add v1.13.0
[1/4] Resolving packages...
[2/4] Fetching packages...
info There appears to be trouble with your network connection. Retrying...
✔  Successfully installed plugin: vue-cli-plugin-electron-builder

Plugin vue-cli-plugin-electron-builder does not have a generator to invoke

After that, I can't use the yarn electron:serve command.

Not a single file of my project has been modified by me or the plugin installation.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a fresh new project by running: vue create app-name
2. Run vue add electron-builder
3. Run yarn electron:serve

Expected behavior
Serve the project.

Environment (please complete the following information):

• OS and version: Windows 7
• node version: 12.0.4
• yarn version (if used): 1.13.0
• vue-cli-plugin-electron-builder version : 1.4.0

It seems like the download failed and the package is corrupted. Try reinstalling modules (rm -r node_modules && yarn). If that still doesn't work, clear the package cache for this plugin (yarn cache clean vue-cli-plugin-electron-builder).

I've got the same result by doing the steps described above

I ended up creating a whole new project and that worked just fine. Thanks for the help!

Sometimes the download of a package just gets messed up. Normally clearing node_modules and reinstalling fixes it. Did you clear and reinstall node_modules after clearing the cache?

I've got the same output with electron-builder@2.0.0-beta.0, vue-cli-plugin-electron-builder@1.4.4 is ok

@EvanXzj you will need to run vue invoke electron-builder. Vue cli doesn't work properly when you specify a version of a plugin.
