[FIXED] How to make laravel run automatically each time I open a new terminal?

Issue

I came from windows to Ubuntu and tried to install laravel following link https://laravel.com/docs/5.0 I ended with the installer 1.4.... I don't recall which one so I decided to use

composer global require "laravel/installer" 

I ended with the installer 4.1.1 but if I close the terminal and open it again and run laravel it does not find the command. I found the following command searching for a solution PATH="~/.config/composer/vendor/bin:$PATH" I have to run this each time for the laravel command to work. Is there a permanent solution? I'm new to linux and I'm having so many issues and could not find a solution. I plan to update laravel but I cannot even get this running properly.

Solution

You can include export PATH="~/.config/composer/vendor/bin:$PATH" in your ~/.bashrc file at the end and save it.

Then you can either run source ~/.bashrc or close and reopen the terminal.

All paths written in ~/.bashrc will be read each time you open a terminal no need to set the path for each terminal session.
