On osx/linux I want to be able to run a command on the terminal

  • 0

On osx/linux I want to be able to run a command on the terminal from anywhere which links to a certain program.

ie I want to be able to run:

alloy

that runs:

/usr/local/share/npm/lib/node_modules/alloy/bin/alloy

UPDATE:
Guess adding to .bashrc is the best way?

tried running: export

PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/share/npm/lib/node_modules/alloy/bin"

and also:

export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/share/npm/lib/node_modules/alloy/bin/alloy"

Then I started a new terminal window but the alloy command doesnt work. Am I missing something?

    You can place /usr/local/share/npm/lib/node_modules/alloy/bin in your PATH, or you can create an alias for alloy.
