Cordova：全局安装后找不到命令

Question

I try to install Cordova in macOS Mojave. I run the following command to install globally. It is installed successfully npm i -g cordova

but when I check the version using cordova --version , It gives me the error "cordova: command not found".

and also when I try to get the location using which cordova , It returns nothing.

Answer 1

Refer this great write up: http://blog.webbb.be/command-not-found-node-npm/

This can happen when npm is installing to a location that is not the standard and is not in your path.

To check where npm is installing, run: npm root -g

It SHOULD say /usr/local/lib/node_modules , If it doesn't then follow this:

Set it to the correct PATH:

• run: npm config set prefix /usr/local

• Then reinstall your npm package(s) with -g: npm install -g cordova etc

If this doesn't work then try adding the global path of cordova(where it got installed) to your $PATH variable.

Answer 2

尝试以root身份安装：

sudo npm i -g cordova
