Where to find composer's global packages?

Question

For a plugin for Sublime Text I was required to install a composer package globally.

In order to do this I had to run the following command:

composer glo         


        

Answer 1

You can use

composer global config bin-dir --absolute

Example

PATH=$(composer global config bin-dir --absolute --quiet):$PATH

You need --absolute to get value expanded, and --quiet to discard diagnostics of composer global changing working directory. This was tested with composer 1.10.16 and 2.0.1.
