* My workaround*

    env:
      ANDROID_SDK_TOOLS:    "4333796"
      ANDROID_CMAKE:        "3.10.2.4988404"
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v1
    - name: set up JDK 1.8
      uses: actions/setup-java@v1
      with:
        java-version: 1.8
    - name: Install Android sdkmanager
      run: |
        wget --quiet --output-document=android-sdk.zip https://dl.google.com/android/repository/sdk-tools-linux-${ANDROID_SDK_TOOLS}.zip
        sudo unzip -d $ANDROID_HOME android-sdk.zip > /dev/null
    - name: Install required Android tools
      run: |
        echo "y" | sudo $ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin/sdkmanager "cmake;${ANDROID_CMAKE}" > /dev/null
        echo "y" | sudo $ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin/sdkmanager --licenses > /dev/null
    - name: Build with Gradle
      run: |
        export PATH="$ANDROID_HOME/cmake/${ANDROID_CMAKE}/bin:$PATH"
        ./gradlew build

This also affects android emulator setup

[Malinskiy]

For now I've created a workaround custom action to install android sdk which has sdkmanager out of the box

[ZacSweers]

@Malinskiy fyi your link is accidentally doubled in your message

@leantk is this intended to get autoclosed?

Hello @ViliusSutkus89 , as I see at the script https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments/blob/master/images/linux/scripts/installers/1604/android.sh. android sdk manager is hosted on /usr/local/lib/android/tools/bin/sdkmanager, but $ANDROID_HOME points to /usr/local/lib/android/sdk.

So, correct path to sdk manager:
/usr/local/lib/android/tools/bin/sdkmanager
Hope it helps, thanks!

[vsafonkin]

Hi @ViliusSutkus89 , I've closed this issue, please reopen it if you have any concerns or questions. Thanks!

[ZacSweers]

@vsafonkin shouldn't ANDROID_HOME be fixed then? It's pointing to the wrong directory now, no?

[vsafonkin]

@ZacSweers , no, ANDROID_HOME is correct, but sdkmanager is installed to unusial directory.

[maxim-lobanov]

@ZacSweers , Yep, we definitely need to fix installation process to install sdkmanager to the correct directory. Reopened

PR with fix path for sdk manager installation: link

[rngadam]

@vsafonkin

So, correct path to sdk manager:

/usr/local/lib/android/tools/bin/sdkmanager

and now that scripts points to:

/usr/local/lib/android/sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager

however if I try to use that:

    - name: Install ndk
      run: /usr/local/lib/android/sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager 'ndk;20.0.5594570'

I get:

Run /usr/local/lib/android/sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager 'ndk;20.0.5594570'
/home/runner/work/_temp/1617399f-1d56-4e71-a078-883e95ca2b24.sh: line 1: /usr/local/lib/android/sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager: Permission denied
##[error]Process completed with exit code 126.

I'm assuming the first line is this in sdkmanager:

#!/usr/bin/env sh

workaround is to:

    - name: Install ndk
      run: sh /usr/local/lib/android/sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager 'ndk;20.0.5594570'

but then fails because repositories not there:

Warning: File /home/runner/.android/repositories.cfg could not be loaded.
Warning: Failed to read or create install properties file.
[===                                    ] 10% Installing NDK (Side by side) 20.0
##[error]Process completed with exit code 1.

Hello @rngadam !
Could you please try this step?

steps:
    - name: Install dependencies
      run: |
        sudo ${ANDROID_HOME}/tools/bin/sdkmanager --install "ndk;20.0.5594570"

Just checked and it works for me.

[rngadam]

@maxim-lobanov :

I ended doing:

    - name: Install NDK
      run: echo "y" | sudo /usr/local/lib/android/sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager --install "ndk;20.0.5594570" --sdk_root=${ANDROID_SDK_ROOT}

and that works.
