Can't add android platform to phonegap project

I'm trying to add the android platform to my phonegap project. I've added already the iOS platform which worked without any problems. When trying to add android via command 

phonegap local run android

I'm always getting this error:

[error] The command `android` failed. Make sure you have the latest Android SDK installed, and    the `android` command (inside the tools/ folder) added to your path.

I have already downloaded the latest Android SDK and I set a PATH to the tools and platform-tools folder as well. 

export PATH=${PATH}:/Documents/android/sdk/platform-tools:/Documents/android/sdk/tools

I also updated my bash_profile file properly with 

source ~/.bash_profile

It turned out that the path to the Android SDK have to be absolute path. After changing my path to something like

export PATH=${PATH}:/Users/your-username/Documents/android/sdk/platform-tools:/Users/your-username/Documents/android/sdk/tools

I could now successfully add the android platform to my project.
