How to add $PATH variable value to Debian

Posted by negraru on Mon, 2 Sep 2019

How to place composer's system-wide vendor bin directory in your $PATH, so the laravel executable can be located by your system.

To set the $PATH permanently, set the path in your startup file. This directory exists in different locations based on your operating system; however, here is how you can do it in Debian.

Edit the startup file:


nano ~/.bashrc

And paste these lines at the end of the file:


alias laravel='~/.config/composer/vendor/bin/laravel'
export PATH="$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"

restart terminal with:


source ~/.bashrc
