Question

I am attempting to use Cloud9 IDE for the first time, and start a node.js project using the express module. I am able to install the module, but when I attempt to run the command

express ./myProjectHere

it’s says

Command ‘express’ was not recognized

npm works, why doesn’t express after installation?

Answer 1

Select the Run Panel to set the run configurations as follows:

   name: express 
   path: node_modules/express/bin/express 
   cmd line args: ./your-app-name

Just remember to double click the express line item in the run panel after you have entered the command information.
