Steps required for nativescript mac install?

[connor11528]

I am trying to install nativescript-cli but get an error about not having android installed. I ran tns doctor as suggested in the readme and got similar output to the error below.

$ npm install nativescript -g

What more do I need to do on OSX 10.11 to get nativescript-cli working? Where are those instructions?

Hi,

the setup guide is here. A known issue is that NativeScript CLI does not support XCode 7 iOS Simulator, which we will fix in an upcoming release. Otherwise, I am using it on El Capitan at the moment without issues.

[teobugslayer]

I am closing this issue for now. If you need more help, feel free to reopen it.

[connor11528]

Ok rad. Thanks for support, great project

So I can't build iOS apps with XCode 7 right now?

[ligaz]

Just the opposite you can safely use Xcode 7 and El Capitan to build NativeScript apps. There is a corner case (that probably will not bite you) when the Xcode 7 iOS Simulator might not work correctly. We hope to address this next week.

I am facing the same issue. WARNING: Xcode is not installed or is not configured properly.
Can anyone tell me how to resolve it?

[vikasgupta-iphone]

Xcode 8.2 continuously getting "WARNING: Xcode is not installed or is not configured properly. "

[Delivrator]

Same problem here :( (xcode 8.2)

[thowerton]

Same issue here with Xcode 8.2.1

EDIT:

The default path for Xcode when installing Xcode command line tools was incorrect. You can confirm if this is your issue by running $ xcodebuild , which will show an error like this if this is your issue:

xcode-select: error: tool 'xcodebuild' requires Xcode, but active developer directory '/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools' is a command line tools instance

The fix for me was to reset this with:
$ sudo xcode-select --reset

after this, tns doctor returned no issues.

[Delivrator]

Indeed, i have this error, but your fix doesn't work :(
I'll try to fix this by an other way.

EDIT : i reinstalled Xcode and used your command. All fixed, you made my day :) Thank you.

@thowerton your answer is really help me, thank you.

but the WARNING: CocoaPods is not installed or is not configured properly. . warning still there.
