lb (loopback cli) command not found - MacOS

I'm trying to install loopback globally using:

npm i -g loopback-cli

then when I run the command lb I get :

bash: lb: command not found

when I do nano ~/.bashrc or nano ~/.bash_profile I see an empty file.

Then I entered in those files 

export PATH=/usr/local/lib/node_modules/node/bin/lb

lb still not working, But then my other commands stopped working (node, ng, etc etc) too. Then I went back and erased those 2 files that I created, and my old commands went back to work, but the lb didn't work.

Solution

  • Try lb4 for latest version of loopback.
