Android: Environment Variables

Configure Android environment variables for useful CLI commands:

  1. Configure ENV variables on .zshrc, .bashrc or .profile file under user $HOME folder

    # ------ Android ------
#
# Windows: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk
# MacOS: $HOME/Library/Android/sdk
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Android/Sdk
export JAVA_HOME=$HOME/<ANDROID_STUDIO_IDE_FOLDER>/jbr

export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/cmdline-tools/latest/bin:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$ANDROID_HOME/emulator

  2. Install Gradle CLI (optional)

    Linux / MacOS

    # Install Gradle cli with sdkman
# https://sdkman.io
#
# PS: On Android Studio 4.1+, the Gradle CLI is not found under Android Studio folder :(
# See https://sdkman.io/install
skd install gradle <version>

    Windows

    If SDKMAN doesn't works well on Windows, try install Gradle CLI with a package manager (e.g Chocolatey. Winget ...)

    choco install gradle
