Ruboto: won't detect Android SDK platform-tools

Question

I need some help with Ruboto..

So I want to start doing some Android development using Ruboto. Here are the steps I took:

1. installed the android sdk
2. installed the sdk addons tools and platform-tools
3. installed jruby using rvm install
4. installed ruboto using gem install
5. add the android sdk-tools and platform-tools directory to my PATH in my .bashrc file using: export PATH=${PATH}:/Users/prem/android-sdks/tools:/Users/prem/android-sdks/platform-tools
6. created a ruboto project using ruboto gen ..
7. start an emulator using emulator -avd emulator-name
8. inside the project directory I run rake install start but I get the following error:

$ rake install start

You need to install the Android SDK Platform-tools!

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

EDIT:

I did the same thing on Ubuntu 12.04, I get the same error (need to install platform-tools!).

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

So thanks to Scott for posting a solution to this on my question on Google groups here https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/ruboto/OI6MobKAiGY

If this problem persists, the way to solve it is to install the latest version of Ruboto (pre-release candidate) by running:

gem install ruboto --pre

That solved it for me!

Answer 2

I've been having the same problem. Try this suggestion from the Ruboto user group. It looks like the build tools folder structure was reorganized.
