jsonplaceholder command not found in Git bash

[typicode]

Hi @Brian1111,

Thank you for reporting :) seems like the command has been removed after a refactoring.

As a workaround, If you want to use JSONPlaceholder locally, please install json-server and load JSONPlaceholder data:

npm install -g json-server
json-server http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/db

Hi @typicode,

Thank you for the information. jsonplaceholder is installed in the following directory: "C:\Railsinstaller\Git\usr\local>" I could run it on Windows PowerShell Terminal by typing the following command: ".\jsonplaceholder"

However, I cannot run it on Git Bash Terminal. I reinstalled json-server, and typed the following as you stated: "json-server http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/db". Still I am getting the same error message: "bash: json-server: command not found"

That's kind of weird, I'm not using PowerShell so I don't know it very well, but it may be related to your Node installation/PATH environment variable. Did you manage to install other CLIs globally using Node?

I fixed the problem. I went to the directory "C:\Users\Username" and opened the file ".npmrc"

Then I changed the prefix from "prefix=C:/RailsInstaller/Git/usr/local" to: "prefix=C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\npm"

Same issues for me, and I want to use the server remotely.
