anyone got the idea why my postcss is not recognized when installed locally with npm? I've tried with postcss in dependecies, and devDependency aswell. its so frustrating. Tried to run it also from ./node_modules and ./node_modules/postcss-cli

i DID install postcss and postcss-cli. When installed globally, everything works, but i need to have it installed locally.

CodePudding user response：

The CLIs that come with npm packages that are installed project-locally are not added to the PATH environment variable, so they cannot be invoked by name only.

However, npm provides helper utility npx for invoking such project-local CLIs:

npx postcss

Note that, by contrast, command lines specified for use with npm run inside package.json files implicitly know about project-local CLIs, so that use of npx isn't necessary there.
