Environment variable issue in build an apk in ionic project

Question

I am trying to build an apk in ionic 2 but while building is getting following error.

Error:

Error: Failed to find 'ANDROID_HOME' environment variable. Try setting setting it manually. Failed to find 'android' command in your 'PATH'. Try update your 'PATH' to include path to valid SDK directory.

After that, I set the environment variable and path. Even though still am getting that error again can anyone please help me how to solve this issue
