cordova - Error: Failed to fetch platform android

Question

I installed cordova and create a new project.

But when I use this command to add android platform:

cordova platform add android

Answer 1

When I tried to remove the android platform from my project directory using this command: cordova platform rm android, it failed.But I managed to do it using the following steps:

1. I deleted cordova-android folder manually from node_modules.
2. Removed cordova-android dependency from package.json.
3. Executed this command from terminal : cordova platform add android --nofetch.

After these the Platform was added successfully.
