Improving my craft slowly

  • Updating path in Mac OSX

    I was playing around with MongoDB and node ..needed to add PATH to get mongo commands from anywhere in the shell.

    Super easy once you know it.

    Open shell and type:

    open .profile ( this will open the shell with textmate )

     

    and then update the path :

    pre-existing:

    export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH

    after modification:

    export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH export PATH=/Developer/mongodb-osx-x86_64-2.4.6/bin:$PATH

    Restart shell and it should work.
