Until you properly config your environment you’ll probably run into the command not found error when trying to run globally installed NPM modules.

Solution for Linux and OSX:

Step 1 – check if the path is correct

You need to have /users/<ME>/.npm-global/bin in your $PATH

echo $PATH

If the printed string doesn’t contain the above path, continue to Step 2

Step 2 – add npm global install path

We need to adjust the $PATH in order to contain the path to the NPM global module folder:

export PATH=$PATH:~/.npm-global/bin

Step 3 – reload .bashrc

The .bashrc file is usually only reloaded on startup. Run the bellow command to reload it again after you made the changes from Step 2.

source ~/.bash_profile

That’s all. Your global NPM modules should now work in your terminal.
