After installation of Gulp: “no command 'gulp' found” - javascript

After installing gulp.js via npm, I receive a no command 'gulp' found error when running the gulp command from the same directory it was installed into.
When looking under the node_modules/.bin/ directory, I can see the gulp executable there.
Is there something wrong with my npm installation?


That's perfectly normal.
If you want gulp-cli available on the command line, you need to install it globally.
npm install --global gulp-cli
See the install instruction.
Also, node_modules/.bin/ isn't in your $PATH. But it is automatically added by npm when running npm scripts (see this blog post for reference).
So you could add scripts to your package.json file:
{
"name": "your-app",
"version": "0.0.1",
"scripts": {
"gulp": "gulp",
"minify": "gulp minify"
}
}
You could then run npm run gulp or npm run minify to launch gulp tasks.


I solved the issue without reinstalling node using the commands below:
$ npm uninstall --global gulp gulp-cli
$ rm /usr/local/share/man/man1/gulp.1
$ npm install --global gulp-cli


I actually have the same issue.
This link is probably my best guess:
nodejs vs node on ubuntu 12.04
I did that to resolve my problem:
sudo apt-get --purge remove node
sudo apt-get --purge remove nodejs
sudo apt-get install nodejs
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node


I solved the issue removing gulp and installing gulp-cli again:
rm /usr/local/bin/gulp
npm install -g gulp-cli


if still not resolved try adding this to your package.js scripts
"scripts": { "gulp": "gulp" },
and run npm run gulp
it will runt gulp scripts from gulpfile.js


Installing on a Mac - Sierra - After numerous failed attempts to install and run gulp globally via the command line using several different instructions I found I added this to my path and it worked:
export PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/node/7.6.0/libexec/npm/bin/:$PATH
I got that path from the text output when installing gulp.


Tried with sudo and it worked !!
sudo npm install --global gulp-cli


I'm on lubuntu 19.10
I've used combination of previous answers, and didn't tweak the $PATH.
npm uninstall --global gulp gulp-cli
This removes any package if they are already there.
sudo npm install --global gulp-cli Reinstall it as root user.
If you want to do copy and paste
npm uninstall --global gulp gulp-cli && sudo npm install --global gulp-cli
should work
I guess --global is unnecessary here as it's installed using sudo, but I've used it just in case.


in my case there was only on issue, just put "gulp":"gulp" in the script portion, of package.json, and then use command npm run gulp.

Cannot install Vue Cli on Mac Catalina [duplicate]

While installing the dependencies of vue-cli, vue is not identified. Why?

rm -rf node_modules and npm install again
have a look here

Add sudo before yarn when installing
yarn global remove #vue/cli
sudo yarn global add #vue/cli
vue

I had the same issue for a while.
TL;DR
npm install #vue/cli-service --save-dev
As the documentation specify it is a development dependency https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/#cli-service
The CLI Service (#vue/cli-service) is a development dependency. It's an npm package installed locally into every project created by #vue/cli.
Origin
I had a fresh install of nodejs
And just did
>> sudo npm install -g #vue/cli#latest
>> vue --version
#vue/cli 4.5.8
The issue
The issue presented like this
>> npm run serve
yarn run v1.22.10
$ vue-cli-service build --mode development --watch
/bin/sh: 1: vue-cli-service: not found
error Command failed with exit code 127.
info Visit https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/run for documentation about this command.
The fixes:
npm install #vue/cli-service --save-dev
Which led me straight to another error message
>> npm run serve
yarn run v1.22.10
$ vue-cli-service build --mode development --watch
ERROR Error: Cannot find module 'vue-template-compiler/package.json'
Which I fixed the same way
npm i vue-template-compiler --save-dev
And now it is working fine.

Installing current version without permanently installing vue-cli.
npx #vue/cli create appname

It shows the vue executable is located at /home/alisha/.local/bin. So probably this location is not there in your $PATH.
You should be able to run the vue commands if you provide the full path, like:
~/.local/bin/vue create hello-world
You can also see if that directory is in your PATH by running some command like:
echo $PATH | grep '.local/bin/'
If it's there, you would see it, otherwise you can add it to your path by placing it in your ~/.profile.
Edit ~/.profile and add the following at the bottom of it.
PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
Hope it helps!!

I had the same issue while making a build for production.
You will require vue-cli to be installed. Use below command to install the latest version.
npm install -g #vue/cli#latest
Then
npm install

Might have to do with you having an old version on your computer:
Warning regarding Previous Versions
The package name changed from vue-cli to #vue/cli. If you have the previous vue-cli (1.x or 2.x) package installed globally, you need to uninstall it first with
npm uninstall vue-cli -g or yarn global remove vue-cli.
You can find it here: https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/installation.html

THIS FIXED THE ISSUE FOR ME:
After running
sudo npm install -g #vue/cli
I ran
sudo nano $HOME/.profile
and pasted the following line
export PATH=$PATH:/home/chike/.npm-global/bin
after writing the code, next thing I did was Ctrl + O, ENTER and Ctrl + X then wrote
vue init webpack myapp

When you install vue using cli that time you got the path of vue.Now you can copy the bin folder path.
In my example /home/sublime/.npm-packages/bin
Now you export the path below command
export PATH=$PATH:/home/sublime/.npm-packages/bin

I solved mine by running (add sudo if needed)
npm i -g vue-cli#2.9.6
npm i -g #vue/cli

Got similar issue when deploy vue project in jenkins.
Here is what I did:
Add node's bin/ dir, to jenkins user's .bashrc file.
e.g
# node
NODE_HOME=/home/dev/.nvm/versions/node/default
PATH=$NODE_HOME/bin:$PATH
Tips - about nvm & yarn
When you manage node version via nvm, make sure you already choose the node version in terminal. e.g:
nvm use stable
node -v
If you use nvm, and installed yarn via npm, then better install vue-cli via npm not yarn, otherwise the vue executable is not placed into node's bin/ dir, at least that's the case in my tests, and as a result will cause you fail to find the vue command.

Using Yarn on Ubuntu it is installed to ~/.npm-packages/bin/. You must add this directory to your PATH. For example run the following command, close your terminal and open a new one.
user#machine:~$ echo 'export PATH="$PATH:~/.npm-packages/bin/"' >> ~/.bashrc
Note: if the file ~/.bashrc does not exist then simply create it.

Following worked for me:
First remove all the existing ones:
yarn global remove #vue/cli
yarn global remove #vue/cli-service
sudo yarn global remove #vue/cli
sudo yarn global remove #vue/cli-service
Then add #vue/cli using sudo:
Note: use sudo if required
yarn global add #vue/cli
yarn global add #vue/cli-service
Then, the final thing to do is to RESTART the terminal.
vue --version
#vue/cli 4.5.9

If you already got a project, the only two things you need to do is:
Delete the directory node_modules (it is safe, since it is not under git and will regenerate in the next step)
In the command-line write yarn install (it will install everything you need)
If you start installing vue-cli manually in a existing project, it the package.json and package-lock.json will be updated. If you already did. Do a checkout from git, and follow my steps above

This may be a problem caused by version conflicts. "export PATH=$PATH:" This is really useful in some cases. But if you are also like me, after trying the direct “export path” method in the comment above, restarting the terminal still can not execute the situation, you can try this way.
Uninstall Vue
npm uninstall -g #vue/cli
Check the local-global npm package installation path, vue is installed in this directory, check if it has been removed.
npm root -g
Install vue (you can check with https://cli.vuejs.org/#getting-started to find the latest command)
npm install -g #vue/cli
Create a connection to the /usr/local/bin directory(You need to find the vue.js path after the local installation first, then replace this path with your latest local install path:/Users/xxxxx/.npm-global/lib/node_modules/#vue/cli/bin/vue.js)
ln -s /Users/xxxxx/.npm-global/lib/node_modules/#vue/cli/bin/vue.js /usr/local/bin/vue
View version number
vue -v

I was getting the same error because Node.js was not installed. My issue got resolved by installing Node.js using the following command:
sudo apt install nodejs-legacy
To see if you already have Node.js and npm installed and check the installed version, run the following commands:
node -v
npm -v
If both are installed then follow the steps here:
https://docs.npmjs.com/resolving-eacces-permissions-errors-when-installing-packages-globally

I installed the package using yarn global add #vue/cli on my Ubuntu box and found the binary in /home/vonkad/.yarn/bin.
I had to modify my /home/vonkad/.bashrc and add the directory to the path export PATH=$PATH:/home/vonkad/.yarn/bin.

To fix this situation, I had to add the following line to my .zshrc (maybe in your case is .bashrc)
export PATH="$(yarn global bin):$PATH"
Effectively, the yarn global bin is a folder where vue (vue-cli 3) was placed.

What helped me
mac os catalina with zsh terminal
Uninstalled node and npm using https://www.positronx.io/how-to-uninstall-node-js-and-npm-from-macos/
Downloaded node/npm from https://nodejs.org/en/download/current/
sudo npm install -g #vue/cli
vue --version (#vue/cli 4.5.4)

I faced the same issue and now resolved. In my case I installed Node.js and NPM using the default Ubuntu repository by using this command sudo apt-get install nodejs npm
The problems seemed like those 2 packages are not well maintained so it caused some bugs.
So I purge those packages and reinstall it from nodesource which is officially recommended way to install (reference: Installation instruction from nodesource) using these commands.
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
Then reinstall #vue/cli again
sudo npm install -g #vue/cli
Now these issues have gone. Hope it helps some programmers.

You need to install vue via sudo like explained in the doc:
https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/installation.html

If you have WSL2 running and you use zsh like me, just add
yarn global add #vue/cli
# add this line to ~/.zshrc
export PATH="$HOME/.yarn/bin:$PATH"
$ vue --version
#vue/cli 4.x.xx

You can try the following code install see
npm install --global vue-cli
vue init webpack <YOUR-PROJECT-NAME-HERE>
cd <YOUR-PROJECT-NAME-HERE>
npm install
npm run dev

Nexe module Command 'nexe' not found error

I have tried to run
nexe --help
or
nexe index.js
but it has returned this error:
Command 'nexe' not found, did you mean:
command 'rexe' from snap rexe (0.7)
command 'next' from deb mailutils-mh (1:3.7-2.1)
command 'next' from deb mmh (0.4-2)
command 'next' from deb nmh (1.7.1-6)
command 'nex' from deb nvi (1.81.6-15build1)
See 'snap info <snapname>' for additional versions.
I am using an Ubuntu system. How do I solve it?

Solution
First, uninstall the nexe module installed on the system locally and remove it from package.json using:
npm uninstall nexe -S
or if it is a dev dependency, use:
npm uninstall nexe -D -S
If you installed it globally, use:
npm uninstall nexe -g
Now install the package using the sudo command as a global package:
sudo npm i nexe -g
Run the command again once fully installed:
nexe --help
If it gives out the help console output, run now:
nexe index.js

NPM return “bash command not found” when I try to get a package version

I have installed the package.json that includes nodemon package (and others)
#npm list --depth 0
├─┬ nodemon#2.0.7
but the command #nodemon -v return a -bash error: "nodemon command not found”
I cant start my server.js with nodemon, the same error, but all works with #node server.js
Any idea? Thnks

With a local install
You can use npx nodemon filename.js
If you want to install it globally
With npm npm install nodemon -g or with yarn yarn global add nodemon, that way you can use nodemon directly (nodemon filename.js)

Error after installing gulp globally

I did $ npm install gulp -g and I am getting this error
-bash: /usr/local/bin/gulp: No such file or directory
node version:
v5.0.0
I am using OSX.
what could be happening?

as said in the gulp guide you have to install cli and than you need to have gulp in your project dependencies in order to run.
So first:
npm install --global gulp-cli
And than inside your project
npm install --save-dev gulp
I replied to a similar question here
hope this helps

Grunt server: command not found in terminal

In my project directory, I installed Grunt by using the following command:
npm install grunt
...after that I did Grunt server in my project directory but it gives me command not found error.
Raj$ grunt server
-bash: grunt: command not found
And:
npm install grunt
npm WARN package.json BID-2.0#0.0.0 No description
npm WARN package.json BID-2.0#0.0.0 No repository field.
npm WARN package.json BID-2.0#0.0.0 No README data
How can I fix it?

You need to install Grunt's command line interface (CLI) globally as well.
From their site:
npm install -g grunt-cli
You may need to use sudo command (for OSX, *nix, BSD etc) or run your command shell as Administrator (for Windows) to do this.
This will put the grunt command in your system path, allowing it to be run from any directory.

You will have to install grunt after installing node / npm with: npm install -g grunt. Then it will be available at the cmd.
