-bash: jsfmt: command not found

[antonio97b]

Running npm install -g jsfmt on my Mac still results in a -bash: jsfmt: command not found error in my console. Everything seems to install correctly but I just can't get any response from jsfmt. I don't have a lot of information other than that, if anyone needs anything else to help me figure out the issue then just let me know and I'll get it to you.

Hi @antonio97b, can you uninstall jsfmt then post the full output of npm install -g jsfmt?

Is /Users/Tony/.npm-packages/bin/jsfmt in your path? Do other npm -g modules work (if so, can you do a which on them to see where they're installed)?

[antonio97b]

Yes, jsfmt is located in $HOME/.npm-packages/bin/.

Bower and Ember, which I use every day, are also both located in the same directory next to jsfmt

[jimfleming]

This sounds like an npm or a shell issue. I can continue to throw out random suggestions but it should "just work".

Does /usr/bin/env node work? It's what we use to declare the shell script.

[antonio97b]

Yes, /usr/bin/env node spits me into the node shell.

Jimfleming,

Is it possible I can just alias 'jsfmt' into my bash_profile. If so, what would I need to put in there?

@antonio97b

alias jsfmt="$HOME/.npm-packages/bin/jsfmt"

That will work, but to avoid an alias for everything installed through npm you'd want:

export PATH="$HOME/.npm-packages/bin:$PATH"

Also type bower might show how you're able to run bower.
