For those just starting out on NativeScript here is what you need to get a fully running system on Linux Ubuntu 14.04 (64 bit).<\/p>\n
The first step is to do a update and add i386 architecture to your box and then download all the compilers:
\n
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386\nsudo apt-get update\nsudo apt-get upgrade\nsudo apt-get install -y libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 zlib1g:i386 lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 libstdc++6:i386\n\n# Pull in all the Development stuff\nsudo apt-get install -y mc linux-headers-generic build-essential g++ ant git openjdk-7-jdk p7zip p7zip-full<\/pre>
\nNext we need to download and build Node (This takes a while depending on the machine):
\nsudo wget -q --output-document=\/usr\/src\/node-latest.tar.gz http:\/\/nodejs.org\/dist\/node-latest.tar.gz\npushd \/usr\/src\nsudo tar zxvf node-latest.tar.gz > \/dev\/null\nsudo chown -R $USER:$USER node-v*\ncd node-v*\n.\/configure\nmake\nsudo make install\npopd<\/pre>
\nNext we need to download and install the android SDK:
\n\u00a0 sudo wget -q --output-document=\/usr\/src\/android-sdk.tgz\u00a0 http:\/\/dl.google.com\/android\/android-sdk_r24.2-linux.tgz\n\u00a0 pushd \/usr\/local\n\u00a0 echo Extracting Android SDK...\n\u00a0 sudo tar zxvf \/usr\/src\/android-sdk.tgz > \/dev\/null\n\u00a0 sudo chown -R $USER:$USER \/usr\/local\/android-sdk-linux\n\u00a0 popd<\/pre>
\nNext we are going to setup all the Paths so that some of the stuff we run later works properly:
\nANDROID_NDK_FILENAME=android-ndk-r10e\n\u00a0 export JAVA_HOME=\/usr\/lib\/jvm\/java-7-openjdk-amd64\n\u00a0 export ANT_HOME=\/usr\/local\/ant\n\u00a0 export ANDROID_HOME=\/usr\/local\/android-sdk-linux\n\u00a0 export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME\/tools:$ANDROID_HOME\/platform-tools:\/usr\/local\/$ANDROID_NDK_FILENAME\n\u00a0 echo 'export ANDROID_HOME=\/usr\/local\/android-sdk-linux' >> ~\/.bashrc\n\u00a0 echo 'export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME\/tools:$ANDROID_HOME\/platform-tools:\/usr\/local\/$ANDROID_NDK_FILENAME' >> ~\/.bashrc\n\u00a0 echo "export JAVA_HOME=\/usr\/lib\/jvm\/java-7-openjdk-amd64" >> ~\/.bashrc\n\u00a0 echo "export ANT_HOME=\/usr\/local\/ant" >> ~\/.bashrc\n\n\u00a0 if [[ -f ~\/.profile ]]; then\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 echo 'ANDROID_HOME=\/usr\/local\/android-sdk-linux' >> ~\/.profile\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 echo 'PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME\/tools:$ANDROID_HOME\/platform-tools:\/usr\/local\/$ANDROID_NDK_FILENAME' >> ~\/.profile\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 echo "export JAVA_HOME=\/usr\/lib\/jvm\/java-7-openjdk-amd64" >> ~\/.profile\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 echo "export ANT_HOME=\/usr\/local\/ant" >> ~\/.profile\n\u00a0 fi\n\n\u00a0 if [[ -f ~\/.bash_profile ]]; then\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 echo 'export ANDROID_HOME=\/usr\/local\/android-sdk-linux' >> ~\/.bash_profile\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 echo 'export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME\/tools:$ANDROID_HOME\/platform-tools:\/usr\/local\/$ANDROID_NDK_FILENAME' >> ~\/.bash_profile\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 echo "export JAVA_HOME=\/usr\/lib\/jvm\/java-7-openjdk-amd64" >> ~\/.bash_profile\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 echo "export ANT_HOME=\/usr\/local\/ant" >> ~\/.bash_profile\n\u00a0 fi<\/pre>
\nNow we need to install all the Android SDK's, and yes we are install 17, 21, and 22.\u00a0\u00a0 17&21 are required for different things.\u00a0 22 is for the latest sdk.
\nandroid update sdk --no-ui --filter platform-tool,android-17,android-21,android-22,build-tools-22.0.1<\/pre>
\n(OPTIONAL) Now we need install the Android NDK -- This is only needed if you are planning to build actual android runtime and metadata tool.
\nANDROID_NDK_FILENAME=android-ndk-r10e\n\u00a0 sudo wget -q --output-document=\/usr\/src\/$ANDROID_NDK_FILENAME.7z http:\/\/dl.google.com\/android\/ndk\/$ANDROID_NDK_FILENAME-linux-x86_64.bin\n\u00a0 sudo chmod a+r \/usr\/src\/$ANDROID_NDK_FILENAME.7z\n\u00a0 sudo mkdir \/usr\/local\/$ANDROID_NDK_FILENAME\n\u00a0 sudo chmod 777 \/usr\/local\/$ANDROID_NDK_FILENAME\n\u00a0 7z x \/usr\/src\/$ANDROID_NDK_FILENAME.7z -o\/usr\/loca<\/pre>
\nNow we need to install Grunt, and the nativescript
\n\u00a0 sudo npm install grunt -g --unsafe-perm\n\u00a0 sudo npm install grunt-cli -g --unsafe-perm\n\u00a0 sudo npm install nativescript -g --unsafe-perm<\/pre>
\nAnd finally we will clone and install each of the primary NativeScript Repo's
\n\u00a0 mkdir ~\/repos\n\u00a0 pushd ~\/repos\n\u00a0 git clone https:\/\/github.com\/NativeScript\/NativeScript\n\u00a0 git clone https:\/\/github.com\/NativeScript\/android-runtime\n\u00a0 git clone https:\/\/github.com\/NativeScript\/nativescript-cli\n\u00a0 git clone https:\/\/github.com\/NativeScript\/android-metadata-generator\n\n\u00a0 cd NativeScript\n\u00a0 npm install\n\u00a0 cd ..\n\n\u00a0 cd android-runtime\n\u00a0 npm install\n\u00a0 cd ..\n\n\u00a0 cd nativescript-cli\n\u00a0 npm install\n\u00a0 cd ..\n\n\u00a0 cd android-metadata-generator\n\u00a0 npm install\n\u00a0 cd ..\n\n\u00a0 popd<\/pre>
\nYou now have everything you need to build all the components of NativeScript.\u00a0\u00a0 In each of the repos; you can do a grunt<\/strong> to build that specific repo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For those just starting out on NativeScript here is what you need to get a fully running system on Linux Ubuntu 14.04 (64 bit).
