Error: ANDROID_HOME is not set and "android" command not in your PATH

Question

I have search and applied all solutions I found on stack overflow. This is what I did
export

ANDROID_HOME=/home/shamsher/android/sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
Still I got this error

/home/shamsher/.cordova/lib/npm_cache/cordova-android/3.6.4/package/bin/node_modules/q/q.js:126
                    throw e;
                          ^

I have also set these from command line export ANDROID_HOME=/home/shamsher/android/sdk export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools — Shamsher, Nov 24 '14 at 06:24

You need to add your path to your profile I think, or else it will only be available during the terminal session that you've used to create it.

How to permanently set $PATH on Linux?

You can also add it to ~/.bashrc file and then just issue

source ~/.bashrc
