Folks, I'm using Mac and trying to install Laravel. I already installed composer , I ran the command line documented in the framework:
composer global require "laravel/installer=~1.1"
It does everything ok, but when I try
laravel new blog
It gives the laravel command does not exist.
I'm creating within the htdocs of xammp.
How could I fix this?
Thank you
You must have /Users/seu-nome-de-usuario/.composer/vendor/bin in your Path so that the laravel executable can be used in any system folder.
To check if your path contains the composer path run the
echo $PATH
and see the output
If not, you can add the path with the
sudo vim /etc/paths
And add in the last line
/Users/seu-nome-de-usuario/.composer/vendor/bin
or if you override paths in your terminal settings you can use
sudo vim ~/.zshrc
and add the line
export PATH="${PATH}:/Users/seu-nome-de-usuario/.composer/vendor/bin"
In xamp I was able to solve this problem like this:
Open your .bash_profile :
vim ~/.bash_profile
And copy the following line at the end of the file:
export PATH="/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin:$PATH"
Save, and then reboot like this:
source ~/.bash_profile
Anything try to create your projects like this:
composer create-project laravel/laravel --prefer-dist
It's the same as laravel new project .
