bash: netlify: command not found"

[katzcentrality]

Despite having Netlify installed locally and globally, on Windows 10 npm version 6.14.5.

When I run netlify or any command with Netlify I get this error:

$ netlify bash: netlify: command not found"

$ npm netlify --v 6.14.5

Thanks!

[erezrokah]

Hi @katzcentrality, thank you for reporting this issue. Do you mind sharing the output of the following command? npx envinfo --system --binaries --npmPackages netlify-cli --npmGlobalPackages netlify-cli

To run the CLI locally, you should have a script under package.json

"scripts": {
    "netlify": "netlify"
  }

Then you should be able to run npm run netlify

[katzcentrality]

npm run netlify does now work with that start script - but I can't run netlify without npm run preceding it.

Thanks, I'll try to reproduce and update here

Quick question:

$ netlify deploy
bash: netlify: command not found

Are you installing netlify-cli in Windows and then trying to run netlify from a Bash shell?

[katzcentrality]

Yep exactly.

[williamjacksn]

Well there is your problem. If you install it in Windows with Windows npm, then it will only be available in the Windows command prompt or PowerShell prompt.

If you want to use it in WSL, you need to install node/npm and netlify-cli in your WSL environment.

[RaglandCodes]

I tried it on PowerShell as @williamjacksn suggested and it worked.

(I was not using WSL. I was using Git BASH on Windows and I have used it before to deploy)

[bobgravity1]

im having the same problem and realllllly cant figure this shit out.. its infuriating me tbh.

[1devansh]

I was having the same problem. Just run the same command while prefixing npm run. For example if you want to do netlify deploy, then write "npm run netlify deploy". Worked for me :)

I tried all possible methods to install netlify cli. But i am not able to use netlify cli. Any one help me there ?

[erezrokah]

Hi @ishaquee, a possible workaround would be to install netlify-cli locally in your project.

npm install --save-dev netlify-cli

The add the following script to your package.json

"scripts": {
    "netlify": "netlify"
  }

Then try running npm run netlify.

[ishaquee]

Where is the Package.json file located? I can't find it anywhere

Hi @ishaquee you can read more about package.json here. Usually you'd generate it by running npm init in the root directory of your project.

Hi @ishaquee this seems off topic for the issue. I suggest you post it in our community

[kiranacharya26]

Hi @erezrokah I have followed your instructions and Im still facing the same issue "scripts": { "start": "react-scripts start", "build": "react-scripts build", "test": "react-scripts test", "eject": "react-scripts eject", "netlify": "netlify" }, have even added dev_dependecnies "devDependencies": { "netlify-cli": "^3.8.0" } when I try exe cmd netlify init it throws error zsh: command not found: netlify

[RajshekharChallapu]

Netlify deploy settings:

add build command : CI= npm run build

[mariyambukhari]

i fixed it by adding "netlify": "netlify", in my package.json file under the "scripts" clause.

[ie-mecklund]

Hi @ishaquee, a possible workaround would be to install netlify-cli locally in your project.

npm install --save-dev netlify-cli

The add the following script to your package.json

"scripts": {
    "netlify": "netlify"
  }

Then try running npm run netlify.

This should be added to the documentation...

Installing per project and not GLOBALLY:

Install:

npm install netlify-cli --save-dev

Add to package.json:

  "scripts": {
    "netlify": "netlify"
  },

Running Netlify commands (per project):

npm run netlify <command>

[developerTested]

in my case it only if i logout and loggedin or reboot system otherwise it's very hard to run on windows 10, windows 11 because terminal/cmd keep running in Background so even install it won't work because cmd/terminal is in use and system is depends on it if stopped auto shutdown like situation will occur

[shemavalentin]

"netlify": "netlify"

Well there is your problem. If you install it in Windows with Windows npm, then it will only be available in the Windows command prompt or PowerShell prompt.

If you want to use it in WSL, you need to install node/npm and netlify-cli in your WSL environment.

This worked for me! appreciate.
