Missing NativeScript ANDROID_HOME

When I run tns run android

or tns doctor

, I get an error that the ANDROID_HOME environment variable is not set. However, this is clearly established. Mac OSX Sierra 10.12.3.

bash-3.2$ tns run android
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.
bash-3.2$ $ANDROID_HOME
bash: /Users/rlangton/Library/Android/sdk: is a directory
bash-3.2$

If you are using bash, you need to update the ~ / .bash_profile file. In my case, I am using ZSH, so I needed to edit the ~ / .zshrc file.

nano ~/.zshrc

Add the export line below:



if [ -f /Users/{myusername}/.tnsrc ]; then
    source /Users/{myusername}/.tnsrc
    export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/{myusername}/Library/Android/sdk
fi

Ctrl + O to save, Ctrl + Z to exit. Restart your terminal. Now echo $ANDROID_HOME

shows the correct path every time.

Open / create .profile

like this

vim ~/.profile

add the following lines to the end of the file .profile

.

export ANDROID_HOME=${HOME}/Library/Android/sdk


load profile using command

source ~/.profile

You should be able to work, I think. This is what I did to set this up.
