react-native run-android is unrecognized

I've installed react-native-cli globally: 

npm install -g react-native-cli

Then run: 

react-native init AwesomeProject
cd AwesomeProject

I got the following structure: 

-- AwesomeProject   
---- node_modules      
------ react-native

When I run react-native run-android I get an error:
Command run-android unrecognized. Did you mean to run this inside a react-native project?

When I run react-native start I get the same.

react-native -v
prints:
react-native-cli: 0.2.0
react-native: n/a - not inside a React Native project directory

What I'm doing wrong?

Solution

  • The problem was that I terminated init command because it looked like hanged without errors (even 24 hours later). To fix this I updated nodejs and npm to newer versions. Once I have done it react-native init was executed properly and there is no more problem with react-native run-android.
