'Error: the command “android” failed' using cordova

Question

I\'m trying to get the android platform added on cordova. I\'ve added and downloaded the most recent SDK in Android SDK, my path is :export PATH=${PATH}:/Users/xxx/Develop

Answer 1

In case of Apache Cordova with Android Studio 0.8 for Mac OS X 10.9, if you have installed in the default /Applications folder, run this on Terminal

export ANDROID_HOME="/Applications/Android Studio.app/sdk"
export ANDROID_TOOLS="/Applications/Android Studio.app/sdk/tools/"
export ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS="/Applications/Android Studio.app/sdk/platform-tools/"
PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME:$ANDROID_TOOLS:$ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS

To confirm, run echo and get

echo $PATH
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/Applications/Android Studio.app/sdk:/Applications/Android Studio.app/sdk/tools/:/Applications/Android Studio.app/sdk/platform-tools/

For Cordova 3.6, it threw another error on a fresh Android Studio

Error: Please install Android target "android-19"

To resolve this, open SDK manager in the IDE, and download the mentioned android version (android-19)
