I was already installed Android Studio and it's just need to add gradle PATH to ~/.bash_profile on my MacOSX Mojave. Also if gradle is upgraded then path might need to update again.

Example .bash_profile :

export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT="~/Library/Android/sdk"
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home)
export GRADLE_PATH="~/.gradle/wrapper/dists/gradle-4.10.1-all/455itskqi2qtf0v2sja68alqd/gradle-4.10.1/bin"
export ANDROID_STUDIO="/Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents/MacOS"
export PATH="$PATH:$GRADLE_PATH:$ANDROID_STUDIO"

When edited your .bash_profile then run a command below to read it again.

source ~/.bash_profile

On Ubuntu 18 04  I intalled gradle with   sudo add-apt-repository ppa cwchien gradle sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install gradle   And Ready

User · Answer

In Ubuntu  Installing latest version of gradle solved the issue for me   Try these steps to install the latest version   sudo add-apt-repository ppa cwchien gradle  sudo apt-get update  sudo apt-get install gradle   then build using   cordova build android or ionic cordova build android  Note  If you install gradle from ubuntu repo  it will install the old version 1 4 and will not help  so sudo apt-get install gradle alone will not help most times  if you did not add the repo ppa cwchien gradle earlier

If you dont want to install gradle explicitly just to address this issue  you can overcome this by following the workaround as mentioned below    Look for check reqs js file under platforms android cordova lib folder Edit the else part of androidStudioPath variable null check in get gradle wrapper function as below    Existing code      else               OK  let s try to check for Gradle            return forgivingWhichSync  gradle              Modified code      else               OK  let s try to check for Gradle            var sdkDir   process env  ANDROID HOME              return path join sdkDir   tools    templates    gradle    wrapper    gradlew              NOTE  This change needs to be done everytime when the android platform is removed and re-added  UPDATE  The above workaround will work fine till Cordova Android version 6 3 0  For Cordova Android 6 4 0 and above  Gradle needs to be installed as a standalone dependency  Please find Cordova Android 6 4 0 release notes for more info on this
