Ionic: adding a platform gives an error

Question

After the first meeting with Ionic, I install the environment for the Android application on OSX Yosemite. Running the command sudo ionic platform android, I get the following error:

Error: %s Error: ENOENT, no such file or directory '/Users/myUser/hooks'
    at Error (native)
    at Object.fs.readdirSync (fs.js:761:18)

Updated the hooks directory to have execute permissions
Error happened { [Error: ENOENT, open '/Users/myUser/config.xml'] errno: -2, code: 'ENOENT', path: '/Users/myUser/config.xml' }
Error: ENOENT, open '/Users/myUser/config.xml'

Versions after starting the update :

├── cordova@5.4.1 
└── ionic@1.7.12 

Answer 1

It should be,

$ ionic platform add android

Also, you better not run the command with sudo, or you may run into permission problems after a while.

Answer 2

go to myApp folder

then run the command:

ion platform add android

Answer 3

Android , .

Answer 4

go to the folder with the ionic application, where there is a config.xml file. Then run this command.

$ cd Myapp where the folder structure should look like this:

$Myapp -> ls

$Myapp -> bower.json gulpfile.js ionic.project platforms README.md scss config.xml hooks package.json plugins resources www

$Myapp -> ionic platform add android
