Overview

While trying out React-Native, I updated Node and installed react-native-cli globally. When I tried to run it, it said command not found. After quite a bit of digging and reinstalling node and npm, I found the solution.

So when you run npm root, you should get your current working directory. That’s where npm puts your modules when you install them. When you run npm root -g, you should get something like /usr/local/lib/node_modules.

If you get your current working directory in both cases, you have to update the path with the following command npm config set prefix /usr/local

Now reinstall your global module and it should work.
