Build for Android and iOS platform doesn't work

[alexmngn]

Hello,
I was wondering if is it possible to build the project for both platform?
When I try to build for android after ios, it throws an error

Error thrown while running shell command: "cordova build android"
Error: Command failed: /bin/sh -c cordova build android
The provided path "/Users/Me/Projects/mobile/0.1.0/cordova/platforms/android" is not an Android project.

Thanks

Hi @alexismangin

Can you post the steps to me reproduce the bug?

I have this problem as well. I am on Linux Ubuntu 14.04, so since I cannot build for iOS it would be really nice if the Android stuff worked :-)

I followed the instructions in the 'getting started' guide (https://github.com/poetic/ember-cli-cordova/blob/master/docs/getting-started.md), but when it says to run the generate command and add --platform android afterwards, it doesn't work:
$ ember generate cordova-init com.poeticsystems.hello --platform=android
The above gives error: "The option '--platform' is not registered with the generate command. Run ember generate --help for a list of supported options."

So, naturally, when I later try to run:
$ ember cordova:build --platform android
it says that cordova/platforms/android is not an Android project, because in the platforms folder there is nothing but a folder named 'ios' and a file named 'platforms.json' which only refers to ios as well.

This project looks really promising, and I would love to get it up and running on Android very soon so that my company can use it in our upcoming product!

Hi @dukex and @Mitchal
I found a way to generate the other platform directly going into the cordova folder and running the command cordova platform add android. It worked fine that way, but didn't work using the blueprint.

Hi @alexismangin!
Thanks a lot, that worked 👍

@alexismangin and @Mitchal Here we use a cordova-init.sh to bootstrap the cordova directory, the script add platforms and plugins we are using, so we can put the cordova directory to gitignore.

I could not reproduce the error doing the steps @Mitchal, but I see this error sometimes. The @alexismangin's suggest work fine
