"Command 'parq' not found" after successful "pip install parquet-cli"

[davidglavas]

Content of my command line while trying to get parquet-cli to run on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS:

machine:~$ pip install parquet-cli
Collecting parquet-cli

... [installing stuff]

Installing collected packages: pytz, six, python-dateutil, numpy, pandas, futures, pyarrow, parquet-cli
Successfully installed futures-3.2.0 numpy-1.15.4 pandas-0.22.0 parquet-cli-1.2 pyarrow-0.11.1 python-dateutil-2.7.5 pytz-2018.7 six-1.11.0

machine:~$ parq --help

Command 'parq' not found, did you mean:

  command 'par2' from deb par2
  command 'par' from deb par
  command 'parl' from deb libpar-packer-perl

Try: sudo apt install <deb name>

Not sure why it's not working for you, did you try sudo? Can you post output of which pip which python?

I had the same issue, but I believe I manage to fix it using sudo:

sudo -H pip install parquet-cli

For me, pip pointed that the binary parq is installed in: /home/<username>/.local/bin So i had to: export PATH="$PATH:/home/<username>/.local/bin" in my ~/.zshrc file.
