  1. Install issue, my NativeScript 1.5 was fine, when I do update or re-install nativescript 1.6, it show this error( should call "tips" ? ), I use "sudo npm install -g nativescript", and actually my $ANDROID_HOME works fine, "$ANDROID_HOME/tools/android" can show the "Android SDK Manager" and all SDK works fine and AVD works fine, do you think that's bug ?

The ANDROID_HOME environment variable is not set or it points to a non-existent directory. You will not be able to perform any build-related operations for Android.
To be able to perform Android build-related operations, set the ANDROID_HOME variable to point to the root of your Android SDK installation directory.

WARNING: adb from the Android SDK is not installed or is not configured properly.
For Android-related operations, the NativeScript CLI will use a built-in version of adb.
To avoid possible issues with the native Android emulator, Genymotion or connected
Android devices, verify that you have installed the latest Android SDK and
its dependencies as described in http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#Requirements

TIP: To avoid setting up the necessary environment variables, you can use the Homebrew package manager to install the Android SDK and its dependencies.

Guys,
here is my fix on Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS.
step 1. Add the below to the .bash_profile(create if you don't have it):

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/
export ANDROID_HOME=/home/(your user)/Android/Sdk
export PATH=${PATH}:/home/(your user)/Android/Sdk/platform-tools:/home/(your user)/Android/Sdk/tools:/home/(your user)/Android/Sdk/tools/bin

at the end ==> $ source ~/.bash_profile

step 2. Install the latest version of build-tools in my case it's v.27

sudo $ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin/sdkmanager "tools" "platform-tools" "platforms;android-27" "build-tools;27.0.1" "extras;android;m2repository" "extras;google;m2repository"

step3. In android studio open SDK manager and install all packages in SDK Tools (except google play)

After all aforementioned I got this:

`user@user:~$ tns doctor
NOTE: You can develop for iOS only on Mac OS X systems.
To be able to work with iOS devices and projects, you need Mac OS X Mavericks or later.

Your components are up-to-date:
nativescript,tns-core-modules,tns-android,tns-ios

No issues were detected.`

Hi @wisonye,
Are you sure that the result of echo $ANDROID_HOME is an existing folder pointing to the root of Android SDK and can be accessed by the user you are currently in, and the user has permission to execute shell files from that folder.

EDIT: also try this: https://github.com/NativeScript/nativescript-cli/issues/1425

@Plamen5kov Sure, of course, here is the command and output :)

@Plamen5kov And actually I also try use "sudo" to call the "android", and it's fine, I remember the "--log trace" seems use this command, then I think your install script should use it as well ( to confirm your install script can run the "android", right ? )

Wisons-MacBook-Pro:NativeScriptProject wison$ sudo /Users/wison/android-sdk-macosx/tools/android -h

       Usage:
       android [global options] action [action options]
       Global options:
  -s --silent     : Silent mode, shows errors only.
  -v --verbose    : Verbose mode, shows errors, warnings and all messages.
     --clear-cache: Clear the SDK Manager repository manifest cache.
  -h --help       : Help on a specific command.
wisonye picture wisonye on 25 Feb 2016

Ok @wisonye, everything looks great so my next question would be can you execute the adb command. The adb should be in /Users/wison/android-sdk-macosx/platform-tools/adb.
Did you try: https://github.com/NativeScript/nativescript-cli/issues/1425 ?

Plamen5kov picture Plamen5kov on 26 Feb 2016

@Plamen5kov Sure, no problem, run it, result:

Wisons-MacBook-Pro:NativeScriptProject wison$ /Users/wison/android-sdk-macosx/platform-tools/adb
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.32

                                 returns an error if more than one USB device is present.

........( ignore, too long, result is the help )
wisonye picture wisonye on 26 Feb 2016

@Plamen5kov If you're saying I SHOULD use "sudo npm i -g nativescript --unsafe-perm" to install NativeScript, then I didn't try, I try later and then let you know the result, thanks for your good job :) NativeScript is the BEST( not just better )

wisonye picture wisonye on 26 Feb 2016

@Plamen5kov I've tried that, but it still report that warning, here is the output when I install NativeScript via "sudo npm i -g nativescript --unsafe-perm" :

Hi @wisonye,

Can you try this. Start node (on the console type node). When you are in the node REPL, type

process.env.ANDROID_HOME

This should print the value of ANDROID_HOME as seen by NativeScipt CLI as opposed as seen by your shell. Sometimes they can differ in more complex scenarios. Check if the value printed is correct.

You mentioned another problem - with CocoaPods. Currently I do not have access to a mac to check, but on top of my head, can you type in Terminal

pod --version

It should say something similar to 0.39.

teobugslayer picture teobugslayer on 27 Feb 2016

@teobugslayer Here is my print out which you ask for:

Wisons-MacBook-Pro:NativeScriptProject wison$ echo $ANDROID_HOME 
/Users/wison/android-sdk-macosx
Wisons-MacBook-Pro:NativeScriptProject wison$ node
> process.env.ANDROID_HOME
'/Users/wison/android-sdk-macosx'
>

And here is pod version:

Wisons-MacBook-Pro:NativeScriptProject wison$ pod --version
0.39.0

Hi @wisonye ,
May I ask you for your version of MacOS. It looks like Yosemite has some issues with Environment variables. Maybe that's the case on your side?

rosen-vladimirov picture rosen-vladimirov on 29 Feb 2016

@rosen-vladimirov My Yosemite version is "10.10.5", and all my environment setup in my "~/.bash_profile" :) And actually all my android stuff run fine, didn't say anything "ANDROID_HOME didn't set issue", then I think should not be the env var on my own side( I guess ) :)

wisonye picture wisonye on 29 Feb 2016

Hey @wisonye,

Do you still have problem with this using our latest version?

enchev picture enchev on 31 May 2016

Hi @fornsss the ANDROID_HOME environment variable should point to the root folder of the android SDK.

Plamen5kov picture Plamen5kov on 28 Mar 2017

@wisonye @enchev I have this problem, too. How did you solve it? I use Linux.
