react-native: command not found

After adding right path to the PATH variable issue is resolved.

Below are the steps to find the right path.

1. Enter: npm install -g react-native-cli
output: /usr/local/Cellar/node/6.1.0/libexec/npm/bin/react-native ->/usr/local/Cellar/node/6.1.0/libexec/npm/lib/node_modules/react-native-cli/index.js/usr/local/Cellar/node/6.1.0/libexec/npm/lib
└── [email protected] 

from above output you can clearly see the path: /usr/local/Cellar/node/6.1.0/libexec/npm/bin/react-native

export PATH="/usr/local/Cellar/node/6.1.0/libexec/npm/bin:$PATH"

react-native init appName

cd appName

react-native run-ios

if you getting xcrun: error: unable to find utility "simctl" at this stage you can reslove using below steps

XCode -> Preferences -> Locations -> Command Line Tools -> Choose Xcode 7.2.1

You can find original solution from xcrun unable to find simctl

Thanks to @fbozo

That's It!!!


After continually running into this problem, and hitting this answer and not having it work..

Assuming you don't run npm as root/sudo (which you shouldn't do!) your npm modules will be installed in whatever you set your default directory to be.

Assuming you have followed those instructions, and your default directory is ~/.npm-global, then you need to add ~/.npm-global/bin to your path.

This is outlined in those instructions, but for me I added this to .bashrc:

export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.npm-global/bin

Then restart your shell and it will work.


run this code

npm i -g react-native-cli

close your cmd and open it again


If who have error , try it with sudo:

sudo npm install -g react-native-cli
