I am writing a simple node CLI tool and having trouble using with NVM. Even installed node locally and use nvm use system and the CLI file still cannot be found. Code is simply including the shell designation:
#!/usr/bin/env node
console.log("Hello, here is my first CLI tool")
When running this from command line I get this:
-bash: cli-project: command not found
Have tried everything. Node is at /usr/local/bin/node, and have even added that. Have used system location of node. Have added the path to /etc/paths. Nothing works! Does anyone have experience building a node CLI tool using NVM how to set up initially? NVM is set up correctly on my machine, and .bash_profile is fine. Very puzzling why it won't pick up this simple path to this.
You have to do a little package.json magic in addition to the shebang it seems like so:
"bin": {
"cli-project": "index.js"
},
Then do npm link . in the application directory. Works!
