I am trying to generate android apk using github action. My project is developed using Vue Cordova.

I have written github workflow but I am getting below error:

Build-tool 33.0.0 is missing DX at /usr/local/lib/android/sdk/build-tools/33.0.0/dx

CodePudding user response：

It's quite pointless using v 33 of build tools and SDK since Cordova only supports up to SDK 32 (with cordova-android 11). Downgrade your build tools to 32. (or even 30).

I am able to solve this by renaming d8 files to dx. Here is updated workflow..
