Cordova build ANDROID_HOME


I'm trying to create a Cordova project. I have a problem when I try this command from shell: "sudo cordova build". Return error message is:

francesco@francesco:~/hello$ sudo cordova build

Running command: /home/francesco/hello/platforms/android/cordova/build

My .bashrc file is this:

    export HOME="/home/francesco"
    export ANDROID_HOME="$HOME/android-sdk-linux"
    export PATH="$HOME/android-sdk-linux/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platforms:$PATH"

How can I set ANDROID_HOME and "android" command?

My android-sdk is located in "home/francesco/android-sdk-linux"

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04


Solution

  • It's not related with your .bashrc file.

    Solution? Create .bash_profile inside you home directory.

    export PATH=${PATH}:/home/francesco/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools
    export PATH=${PATH}:/home/francesco/android-sdk-linux/tools
