Answer 1

For Linux: To remember flutter commands permanently:

1.) open up terminal and cd to $HOME. for eg: username@linux:~$

2.) open the hidden file .bashrc with your desired editor. It resides in $HOME.eg. sudo gedit .bashrc

3.) add the following line export PATH=/home/username/flutter/bin:$PATH somewhere as a newline in .bashrc file preferably as the last line edit & save the file.

4.) run source /home/yourname/.bashrc in terminal to process your recent changes.

5.) finally, run echo $PATH to see flutter dir is in your system path along with other such paths. for eg: /home/username/flutter/bin

Answer 2

Open your .bash_profile file located under Finder>Go>Home. Add below lines at the end of

export PATH=$PATH:/Users/Projects/Flutter/sdk/bin

Don't forget to replace /Users/Projects/Flutter/sdk/bin with your flutter path.

Answer 3

You can easily create a symbolic link as below,

sudo ln -s /opt/flutter/bin/flutter /usr/bin/flutter

I had moved flutter into /opt/ folder after downloading, so replace with the path you have flutter directory.

flutter command should work even after rebooting your machine.

Answer 4

I faced this problem and I resolved it following these steps:

1. : nano ~/.bash_profileexport

2. : add this line: PATH=/Users/user/Documents/flutter_sdk/flutter/bin:$PATH make sure the dir to your flutter bin is correct.

3. :source ~/.profile

Answer 5

Just revert to chsh -s /bin/bash from chsh -s /bin/zsh,

Run one command

chsh -s /bin/bash

Your facing this problem just because of you have change shell from /bash to /zsh in macOs. If you run this command again it will change the path again. So just run one command and problem solve.
