Environment variables in meteor command line for windows - meteor

trying to set an environment variable in meteor command line on windows fails.
e.g JASMINE_BROWSER=PhantomJS meteor [options] returns
'JASMINE_BROWSER' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
please how can one set environment variables in meteor command line?

use SET e.g.
SET JASMINE_BROWSER=PhantomJS meteor [options]

You can also use cross-env:
npm i -g cross-env
cross-env JASMINE_BROWSER=PhantomJS meteor

The term 'flutterfire' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program

I'm trying to install flutterfire_cli in my root project, so I typed this command:
FirebaseFirestore firestore = FirebaseFirestore.instance;
so after that, this is the output of my console:
PS C:\Users\PC\Desktop\eventually> dart pub global activate flutterfire_cli
Package flutterfire_cli is currently active at version 0.1.1+2.
Resolving dependencies...
The package flutterfire_cli is already activated at newest available version.
To recompile executables, first run `global deactivate flutterfire_cli`.
Installed executable flutterfire.
Warning: Pub installs executables into C:\Users\PC\AppData\Local\Pub\Cache\bin, which is not on your path.
You can fix that by adding that directory to your system's "Path" environment variable.
A web search for "configure windows path" will show you how.
Activated flutterfire_cli 0.1.1+2.
To fix the warning I added C:\Users\PC\AppData\Local\Pub\Cache\bin to my Path in system variables environnement. (but it does not work, I'm still getting the warning)
Next, I'm trying to generate the firebase_options.dart file as the documentation says using this command:
flutterfire configure
But I'm getting an error in the console:
PS C:\Users\PC\Desktop\eventually> flutterfire configure
flutterfire : The term 'flutterfire' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable
program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
At line:1 char:1
+ flutterfire configure
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (flutterfire:String) [], CommandNotFoundException

Could anyone tell me what I am missing, why I am getting this error even if the Firebase CLI already installed on my machine?
Go through this doc very carefully: https://firebase.flutter.dev/docs/cli/
Step 1: Install Firebase CLI
Step 2: Install FlutterFire CLI with this command dart pub global activate flutterfire_cli
While doing this you must notice the following warning
Warning: Pub installs executables into C:\Users\PC\AppData\Local\Pub\Cache\bin, which is not on your path. You can fix that by adding that directory to your system's "Path" environment variable. A web search for "configure windows path" will show you how.
This means you need to add C:\Users\*username*\AppData\Local\Pub\Cache\bin into your System's environment path.
Step 3: Now flutterfire configure should work.
If still not working play with Firebase commands
For Mac -> Execute this command:
export PATH="$PATH":"$HOME/.pub-cache/bin"
Three 3 steps for getting it work on Windows:
Run this command:
dart pub global activate flutterfire_cli
Type env into Windows search and open Edit the system environment variables --> Environment variables --> System variables( the one on the bottom of the window) --> Double click on Path --> New and enter this:
C:\Users\PutHereYourUsername\AppData\Local\Pub\Cache\bin
flutterfire configure command should work now - close and open again command prompt or other terminal. Sometimes there is a problem with other editors and terminals where flutterfire configure still does not work. In that case open Command Prompt and it works there for sure.
As for me, I have done everything correctly and the command works if I run in the Windows command prompt, but it fails to work if I type the command inside the VS code terminal.
So I just killed the terminal and opened it again, then it works.
Or, you can try restarting your machine.
Even after adding C:\Users\PC\AppData\Local\Pub\Cache\bin to the path for me flutterfire would not work from the command line, the reason being that it actually instally a flutterfire.bat file.
So I use flutterfire.bat in the command line as of now and that is working.
For Linux/Ubuntu run this command in the terminal,
export PATH="$PATH":"$HOME/.pub-cache/bin"
Which you will also notice in the terminal when you run the command ↓.
dart pub global activate flutterfire_cli
Make sure you are your project directory
run this export PATH="$PATH":"$HOME/.pub-cache/bin"
For Linux/Ubuntu you should do the following:
Open your .bashrc file using the command "sudo nano ~/.bashrc"
Add export PATH="$PATH":"$HOME/.pub-cache/bin" to the end of the file.
Final you can source the file using "source ~/.bashrc"
It should now be able to recognize the file.
for macOS Monterey edit ~/.zprofile instead .zshrc
This was the hack i used to solve mine. I copied and pasted the C:\Users\PC\AppData\Local\Pub\Cache\bin in my folder search bar to enter the folder, note I could not find any folder called AppData, but when I pasted it on the folder search it did take me to the bin folder.
In the bin folder, you will find a file called flutterfire.bat. Copy and paste the flutterfire.bat file in the root of your project and then run the .\flutterfire configure command. Please do note the dot (.) and forward-slash (\). You need to add it to work.
for mac m1 , add
export PATH="$PATH":"$HOME/.pub-cache/bin" at the top of users/username/.profile , works on (monterey)
For me, even after I installed everything correctly, restarting my IDE(VSCode) did the trick.
Flutter command not found
Here is very easy instructions for adding something to your path on Mac, It solved my issues with Flutter and Flutterfire.
The export PATH="$PATH":"$HOME/.pub-cache/bin" did not work on my Debian machine!
I removed the first line #!/usr/bin/env sh from $HOME/.pub-cache/bin/flutterfire file and the flutterfire command worked properly.
Use command prompt.. not the vsc terminal
if you followed the right answer and still not working, you need to restart your computer

Can't Access Dart sass from Git Bash

I just installed Dart sass and configured the PATH and everything. When I try to access the sass command from Git Bash it displays: bash: sass: command not found. However, when i try to access it from the CMD it works. Given that I got used to UNIX commands in Git Bash, is there something I need to configure to give access to Git Bash to read the sass command?

How to add firebase to my bash profile? [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
firebase-tools "-bash: firebase: command not found"
(32 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
I have been having trouble installing firebase command line tools. I am following the guide at: https://www.firebase.com/docs/hosting/command-line-tool.html. I have run the initial command into my terminal: npm install -g firebase-tools. Once I run: firebase init in the root of my directory, I get the following error:
-bash: firebase: command not found
I have looked at guides how to manually modify my bash profile, but can not figure out how to do so... Shouldn't my bash .bash_profile automatically get modified when I run a global command?? Any help would be appreciated. I just need my firebase commands to work in the terminal, and why the global command won't register in my bash profile?
When you run npm install -g firebase it tries to install the firebase library and associated binaries into a system-wide location. You can determine where this location is by running npm prefix -g. In order for the firebase binary to be available to your bash session, the bin directory inside your global npm prefix must be on your path.
In Bash, an easy way to add a directory to your PATH is by modifying the .bashrc file in your home directory. Appending a line like so will add the global npm bin directory to your current PATH:
PATH="$(npm prefix -g)/bin:$PATH"
Once you have modified your PATH variable either open a new terminal session or run export PATH="$(npm prefix -g)/bin:$PATH" for the change to immediately take effect.
If ~/.bashrc is not being sourced on your machine, an easy fix is adding the following line to your ~/.bash_profile file:
source "$HOME/.bashrc"

Meteor command not found

I installed the same version from Official Windows Meteor Support on one computer and the command "meteor" runs normally, now I tried to install in another computer but is giving me the issue that the "meteor command was not found". I tried to add the path to the system variables, but it doesn't seem to work.
Any ideas? Thank you
I have just discovered in Windows (I am using Windows 8.1) that you have to type meteor.bat to invoke meteor. e.g. meteor.bat create myapp
The answers already listed were only half the answer for me.
The following steps, resolved the issue.
Set the SYSTEM Environment Variable to:
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\.meteor
Or if you prefer, change to your username explicitly
C:\Users\rich\AppData\Local\.meteor
Then as per the accepted answer on this question.
Create a file named meteor in the directory where the meteor.bat is. E.g. the path above.
Hint, you can use
touch meteor
Copy these lines into the file and save
#!/bin/sh
cmd //c "$0.bat" "$#"
For others that might come across this issue.
I'm on Windows 10 and installed Meteor 1.4. Was getting meteor command not found when trying to run meteor from command prompt.
I checked my users PATH variables and found this entry:
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\.meteor\
I removed the last backslash, saved the PATH variables, and then opened a new command prompt. The meteor command was now recognized.
My PATH variable entry now looks like this with the last backslash removed:
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\.meteor
Note: You can replace %username% with your actual windows username. The entry should work fine as the system will resolve it to your username.
If path variable is not present in environment variables,
You can execute the command only from the directory where meteor is present. i.e., "C:\Users\username\AppData\Local.meteor\" directory.
To use the meteor from any directory inside the command prompt,
Add path variable to the environment settings.
"C:\Users\username\AppData\Local.meteor\meteor.bat".
Restart command prompt if already open.
This will enable meteor command to work everywhere.
The question is old but it might help others who face similar issue.
I just installed meteor and had the same issue. It looks like it installed successfully and added C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local.meteor to the User variable (not system variable).
I am using Windows 10 and I might have to re-login or reboot for that to start working properly.
So, to use without re-login or reboot, use complete path in the directory where you want to create the project:
C:\Projects> C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local.meteor\meteor my_project
Hope it helps.
Using the Node Command prompt instead of Terminal worked for me. Search for Node Command Prompt in the Start Menu.
On Linux,
If the problem comes from systemd service (systemclt) configuration, the PATH is not recognized properly, then:
Here is the error log:
Feb 3 00:13:43 localhost metassa-org[65870]: > meteor run --port=9999
Feb 3 00:13:43 localhost metassa-org[65881]: sh: 1: meteor: not found

Feb 3 00:13:43 localhost metassa-org[65870]: npm ERR! command failed
Edit your service configuration file:
Environment="PATH=/home/ubuntu/.npm-global/bin:/home/ubuntu/.meteor:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:$PATH"
Replace /home/ubuntu with your user folder containing meteor install.
You may replace all with your current $PATH value instead.
ExecStart=/usr/bin/npm run start --prefix /var/www/meteor/simple-todos-react
Modify /var/www/meteor/simple-todos-react with your meteor project
Finally, restart your service.
sudo systemctl daemon-reload

/usr/local/bin/node: not found

I kept getting the error above, when I do which node I got the following error:
/usr/bin/node
so in my .bash_profile, I've put in:
export PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH
but still the error doesn't go away
If you can not or do not want to change the program you are running. (you could just change the /usr/local/bin/node to /usr/bin/node in that program), an alternative solution is to create a link from your node installation to the path it is trying to load it from.
Run this as root:
ln -s /usr/bin/node /usr/local/bin/node
Where the first path parameter is the source, and second path parameter as destination
It is perfectly normal and it is not an error. When you run which, the result will be the location of the program if it is successfully installed.
you are trying to run node.js ?, in ubuntu 14.04 the node.js is installed at usr/bin/nodejs. So to run the programs you need use nodejs my_file.js instead of node node my_file.js like windows operation system.
you can confirm it using the command which as said above.
