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.

WARNING: The Android SDK is not installed or is not configured properly.
You will not be able to build your projects for Android and run them in the native emulator.
To be able to build for Android and run apps in the native emulator, 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.

WARNING: xcodeproj gem is not installed or is not configured properly.
You will not be able to build your projects for iOS.
To be able to build for iOS and run apps in the native emulator, verify that you have installed xcodeproj.

WARNING: CocoaPods is not installed or is not configured properly.
You will not be able to build your projects for iOS if they contain plugin with CocoaPod file.
To be able to build such projects, verify that you have installed CocoaPods.
Cannot find a compatible Android SDK for compilation. To be able to build for Android, install Android SDK 22 or later.
Run $ android to manage your Android SDK versions.

You need to have the Android SDK Build-tools installed on your system. You can install any version in the following range: '>=23 <=24'.
Run android from your command-line to install required Android Build Tools. In case you already have them installed, make sure ANDROID_HOME environment variable is set correctly.

You need to have Android SDK 22 or later and the latest Android Support Repository installed on your system.
Run $ android to manage the Android Support Repository. In case you already have it installed, make sure ANDROID_HOME environment variable is set correctly.

So looks like nativescript works properly

[tsonevn]

Hi @af-fess,
The NativeScript should be install without sudo. In case you use sudo for the installation command, ANDROID_HOME and CocoaPods for the local user will not be found. Try to install it using npm install -g nativescript.
Let me know whether this helps or if I could assist you further.

[af-fess]

npm install -g nativescript gives me permission error so i cant install it without sudo. i changed permissions and it works

@af-fess
How did you change the permissions?
And which permissions did you change?

[danilopaez]

This work for me:

1- npm cache clean
2- sudo chown -R $USER ~/.npm
3- sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local/lib/node_modules
4- npm i -g nativescript

[lebeker]

@enchev, is it the best solution? I pesonally don't want to keep global directories available for edit for non-sudoers, even (or especially /usr/local/lib/node_modules)

[lebeker]

found from docs:

sudo npm install nativescript -g --unsafe-perm

[digotetso]

If you installed node from http://nodejs.org/
then use:
mac & linux: sudo npm install nativescript -g --unsafe-perm
Windows: npm install nativescript -g

else if you installed node via npm
then use:
mac, linux & windows: npm install nativescript -g
