phonegap cli blackberry 10

Question

I'm having some trouble building a blackberry 10 version of my app using Phonegap's CLI (Phonegap 3.4.1).

Logically the command should be:

 phonegap build blackberry10

but this returns the following errors :

 /usr/local/lib/node_modules/phonegap/lib/phonegap/build.js:73
    self.phonegap.emit('log', 'detecting', platform.human, 'SDK environment...
                                               ^
TypeError: Cannot read property 'human' of undefined

at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:474:10)
at Module.load (module.js:356:32)
at Function.Module._load (module.js:312:12)

Everything works fine for android and iOS, I have the blackberry 10 sdk installed and the directory is in my PATH variable. It seems that blackberry10 isn't recognized, perhaps my command is wrong? (i've tried blackberry-10, qnx ...)

The Phonegap build service doesn't support BlackBerry10.

http://docs.build.phonegap.com/en_US/3.3.0/introduction_supported_platforms.md.html#Supported%20Platforms

If you have added the platform already

cordova platform add blackberry10

your best bet would be to use the cordova syntax to access the engine directly

cordova build blackberry10

This will definitely give you the expected results (as long as you have the signing keys configured :))
