OSX -bash: composer: command not found
Well I tried a lot of things but none seemed to be working. But the following process did it right, I can now use composer
command in terminal. I'm in mac OS 10.12.1
$ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
$ chmod +x composer.phar
$ mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
$ composer
The path /usr/local/bin/composer
is not in your PATH, executables in that folder won't be found.
Delete the folder /usr/local/bin/composer
, then run
$ mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
This moves composer.phar
into /usr/local/bin/
and renames it into composer
(which is still an executable, not a folder).
Then just use it like:
$ composer ...
Tested on Mac OSX after installing via instructions on composer website:
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
I get into the same issue even after moving the composer.phar
to '/usr/local/bin/composer' using the following command in amazon linux.
mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
I used the following command to create a alias for the composer file. So now its running globally.
alias composer='/usr/local/bin/composer'
I don't know whether this will work in OS-X. But when i search with this issue i get this link. So I'm just posting here. Hope this will help someone.
