build failed when push notification plug in added to project on mac

Question

I am using PhoneGap to build applications. Application runs properly on emulator but when push notification plug in is added to project it gives build errors. I searched this issue...initially it was found to be a common issue to many people...tried all solutions...but still the same build errors.

here is the plug in

sudo cordova plugin add phonegap-plugin-push

one of the solution said try out with 1.2.3 version of push notification i.e

sudo cordova plugin add phonegap-plugin-push@1.2.3

There were no errors using this version but then it is older version want a solution with the latest version. The latest is working on windows machine but not on MAC.

Here is the detailed error when used latest version

ANDROID_HOME=/Users/bunty/Library/android-sdk-macosx
 JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_75.jdk/Contents/Home

Answer 1

If you read the install guide

You will need to ensure that you have installed the following items through the Android SDK Manager:

Android Support Library version 23 or greater
Android Support Repository version 20 or greater
Google Play Services version 27 or greater
Google Repository version 22 or greater

You can do it manually or using this command:

android update sdk --no-ui --filter "extra"

Answer 2

Dont use sudo for installing. It causes permissions issues.
