I am using MAMP on macOS 12 (Monterey), so I want to run through MAMP to use PHP. Therefor I added this alias:
nano ~/.bash_profile
alias phpmamp='/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.4.10/bin/php'
Then I ran:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | phpmamp
Which resulted in:
Composer (version 2.4.2) successfully installed to: /Users/johnmiles/composer.phar
Use it: php composer.phar
Then I made it available globally:
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
But when I run composer I get:
env: php: No such file or directory
So how do I tell composer to use phpmamp?
Within the Terminal, run vim ~/.bash_profile
Type i and then paste the following at the top of the file:
export PATH=/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php8.0.8/bin:$PATH
Hit ESC, Type :wq, and hit Enter
In Terminal, run source ~/.bash_profile
In Terminal, type in which php again and look for the updated string. If everything was successful, It should output the new path to MAMP PHP install.
In case it doesn't output the correct path, try closing the terminal window (exit fully) and open again, it should apply the changes (Restart in short).
What I'm trying to accomplish:
Create a new Laravel project
What I'm trying:
I've been trying to follow the installation instructions
sudo composer global require laravel/installer
export PATH="/home/hedwin/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
When I try to run the following command:
sudo Laravel new trainingLaravel
it returns this error:
sudo: laravel: command not found
You can see my picture for details : Terminal
I'm on ubuntu 18.04.
Thanks a lot for every help..
edit : problem unsolved, i completely remove laravel/installer
composer global remove laravel/installer
then i redo installation in /home/hedwin/ directory :
https://gist.github.com/zunayed93/80ba8611a88623c20f9bb6c7b4e25792
but my way to add /vendor/bin dir. to the path didn't work so i follow instructions at Laravel PHP Command Not Found
"Ok, I did that and it works:
nano ~/.bash_profile
And paste
export PATH=~/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH
do source ~/.bash_profile
"
and finally command laravel new something works !
found solution :
sudo chown -R hedwin ~/.composer/composer.json
sudo chown -R hedwin /home/hedwin/.composer/cache/repo/https---repo.packagist.org/
sudo chown -R hedwin /home/hedwin/.composer/cache/files/
or :
"sudo chown -R hedwin ~/.composer/" is the same
sources :
When installing Laravel i got an error: "./composer.json is not writable."
Cannot create cache directory .. or directory is not writable. Proceeding without cache in Laravel
I am following the composer developer Tutorial: https://hyperledger.github.io/composer/tutorials/developer-guide.html
Everything worked till the point when I am running from the command line:
$ composer archive create -a dist/my-network.bna --sourceType dir --sourceName .
-bash: fds: command not found
The composer command was not found. When built by npm install the script can execute the composer command within the package.json
Next I installed php composer from: https://getcomposer.org - Which might be the wrong package?
$ composer network deploy
[Symfony\Component\Console\Exception\CommandNotFoundException]
Command "network" is not defined.
My 2 questions: is this the right package, if not how can I remove it safely?
Furthermore, how can I execute the composer command.
You need to npm install -g composer-cli -- please refer to the documentation.
I have been strugling to create an application with laravel installer from terminal.
I have globally installed composer and laravel..
however i constantly get this error:
If you check at the bottom of the screenshot you can see -bash: new: command not found however laravel command is being executed perfectly. My osx version is 10.10.2. Macbook pro.
Any help will be appreciated.
Another question (bit out of the topic)
Is git inbuild in mac osx?
Cuz i hadn't installed it but it shows all of its commands.
Regards,
=======================
I created alias for composer and laravel in .bash_profile and .bashrc and it worked however now I'm getting this error :
Prajwols-MacBook-Pro:htdocs prajwol$ laravel new test
Crafting application...
Warning: ZipArchive::extractTo(): Invalid or unitialized Zip object in /Users/prajwol/.composer/vendor/laravel/installer/src/NewCommand.php on line 99
Warning: ZipArchive::close(): Invalid or unitialized Zip object in /Users/prajwol/.composer/vendor/laravel/installer/src/NewCommand.php on line 101
Application ready! Build something amazing.
Result : An empty folder is created called test in destination folder.
The command needs a project name: laravel new <NAME>. Like laravel new blog. This will create a new laravel project in a new blog directory in the current path.
$ brew tap homebrew/homebrew-php
$ brew install php72
Install composer
$ php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
$ php composer-setup.php --install-dir=/usr/local/bin --filename=composer
Install Laravel
$ composer global require "laravel/installer"
$ composer global -vvv require "laravel/installer"
now run command
composer
I have installed Laravel using composer without problems, but when I try to execute "laravel" in my terminal I have this typical error:
-bash: laravel: command not found
If I read the documentation of the official site I need to do that:
Make sure to place the ~/.composer/vendor/bin directory in your PATH so the laravel executable is found when you run the laravel command in your terminal.
But I don't know how to do.
Can you help me with that? Thanks!!
Ok, I did that and it works:
nano ~/.bash_profile
And paste
export PATH=~/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH
do source ~/.bash_profile and enjoy ;)
Important: If you want to know the difference between bash_profile and bashrc please check this link
Note: For Ubuntu 16.04 running laravel 5.1, the path is: ~/.config/composer/vendor/bin
On other platforms: To check where your Composer global directory is, run composer global about. Add /vendor/bin to the directory that gets listed after "Changed current directory to ..." to get the path you should add to your PATH.
Add the following to .bashrc file (not .bash_profile).
export PATH="~/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
at the end of the file and then in terminal run source ~/.bashrc
To verify that:
echo $PATH
(Restart the terminal, Check & Confirm the path is there)
Run the laravel command!
Note:
For Ubuntu 16 and above use below:
export PATH="~/.config/composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
When using MacBook, refer to the snippets below;
For zsh:
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc
For Bash:
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
Solution on link http://tutsnare.com/laravel-command-not-found-ubuntu-mac/
In terminal
# download installer
composer global require "laravel/installer=~1.1"
#setting up path
export PATH="~/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
# check laravel command
laravel
# download installer
composer global require "laravel/installer=~1.1"
nano ~/.bashrc
#add
alias laravel='~/.composer/vendor/bin/laravel'
source ~/.bashrc
laravel
# going to html dir to create project there
cd /var/www/html/
# install project in blog dir.
laravel new blog
Type on terminal:
composer global require "laravel/installer"
When composer finish, type:
vi ~/.bashrc
Paste and save:
export PATH="~/.config/composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
Type on terminal:
source ~/.bashrc
Open another terminal window and type: laravel
If you're using Ubuntu 16.04.
You need to find the composer config files in my case is :
~/.config/composer or in other cases ~/.composer/
you can see the dir after this command composer global require "laravel/installer"
after Laravel Installed you can find your laravel in ~/.config/composer/vendor/laravel/installer/.
and you will find the Laravel shortcut command in here : ~/.config/composer/vendor/bin/
set your .bashrc using nano ~/.bashrc and export your composer config file :
export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.config/composer/vendor/bin"
or you can use allias. but above solution is recommended.
alias laravel='~/.config/composer/vendor/laravel/installer/laravel'
Now refresh your bashrc using source ~/.bashrc and then laravel is ready!!
above steps works with me in Ubuntu 16.04
For zsh and bash:
export PATH="$HOME/.config/composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
source ~/.zshrc
source ~/.bashrc
For bash only:
export PATH=~/.config/composer/vendor/bin:$PATH
source ~/.bashrc
For Developers use zsh Add the following to .zshrc file
vi ~/.zshrc or nano ~/.zshrc
export PATH="$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
at the end of the file.
zsh doesn't know ~ so instead it by use $HOME.
source ~/.zshrc
Done! try command laravel you will see.
If on mac (and think *nix) just run this in your terminal.
export PATH="~/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
For those using Linux with Zsh:
1 - Add this line to your .zshrc file
export PATH="$HOME/.config/composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
2 - Run
source ~/.zshrc
Linux path to composer folder is different from Mac
Use $HOME instead of ~ inside the path with Zsh
The .zshrc file is hidden in the Home folder
export PATH= exports the path in quotes so that the Laravel executable can be located by your system
The :$PATH is to avoid overriding what was already in the system path
If you are coming here 2021 this has worked for me also using Ubuntu 16.04
nano ~/.bash_profile
export PATH=$HOME/.config/composer/vendor/bin:$PATH
ctrl+x and save
source ~/.bash_profile
For MAC users:
1. Open terminal
cd ~
2. Double check the $PATH
echo $PATH
3. Edit file
nano ~/.bash_profile
4. PASTE
export PATH="~/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
Don't forget to put quotation marks.
5. control + X (y + enter to save the file and exit)
Now start vagrant, go to your folder and try:
laravel new yourprojectname
I set the PATH,but it didn't work.I find other way to solve it. (OSX 10.10 & laravel 5.2)
1) find the executable file:
~/.composer/vendor/laravel/installer/laravel
2) give execute permissions:
chmod +x ~/.composer/vendor/laravel/installer/laravel
3) make a soft link to /usr/bin:
sudo ln -s /Users/zhao/.composer/vendor/laravel/installer/laravel /usr/bin/laravel
1) First, download the Laravel installer using Composer:
composer global require "laravel/installer"
2) Make sure to place the ~/.composer/vendor/bin directory in your PATH so the laravel executable can be located by your system.
set PATH=%PATH%;%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Composer\vendor\bin
eg: “C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Composer\vendor\bin”
3) Once installed, the simple laravel new command will create a fresh Laravel installation in the directory you specify.
eG: laravel new blog
type on terminal:
nano ~/.bash_profile
then paste:
export PATH="/Users/yourusername/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
then save (press ctrl+c, press Y, press enter)
now you are ready to use "laravel" on your terminal
If you have Composer installed globally, you can install the Laravel installer tool using command below:
composer global require "laravel/installer=~1.1"
Late answer...
Composer 1.10.1 2020-03-13 20:34:27
laravel --version
Laravel Installer 3.0.1
Put
export PATH=$PATH:~/.config/composer/vendor/bin:$PATH
in your ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc
source ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc
This works
Composer should be installed globally:
Run this in your terminal:
mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
Now composer commands will work.
My quick way of creating a new project
//install composer locally on web root - run the code from: https://getcomposer.org/download/
Then install laravel:
php composer.phar require laravel/installer
Then create the project without adding anything to any path
vendor/laravel/installer/bin/laravel new [ProjectName]
//add project to git
cd ProjectName
git init
git remote add origin git#...[youGitPathToProject]
Wondering if this way of doing it has any issues - please let me know
Just use it:
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel youprojectname
