where is the path after jpm in Mac? about joy HOT 9 CLOSED

FWIW I just did jpm install joy on OSX today and joy is recognized 👍

$ which joy
/usr/local/bin/joy

from joy.

I think by default it’s /usr/local/lib/janet

but you can check with (dyn :syspath) in the repl

from joy.

Thanks. Sorted. In /usr/local/lib/janet/bin; wonder why not in /usr/local/bin/ like janet

TL; DR

The (dan :syspath) return "/usr/local/Cellar/janet/1.8.1/lib/janet"; not sure

I tried /usr/local/lib/janet and found there is a bin there

Hence, "/usr/local/lib/janet/bin" is ok with

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/lib/janet/bin

which joy give you /usr/local/lib/janet/bin/joy which is differ from /usr/local/bin/janet

Why it is not there?

from joy.

Why not have joy in /usr/local/bin/

from joy.

This is actually something that's been bothering me too, I should maybe try to symlink to /usr/local/bin or figure out a way to get jpm to put it there

I'll work on this

from joy.

I attempted to symlink to /usr/local/bin at the bottom of project.janet so hopefully this happens on install 🤞

@swlkr can this issue be marked closed?

from joy.

I usually leave it up to the person who opened the issue to close it, but yeah it can

Thanks
