Lesson 15: "Command 'graph' not found"

[BenRai1]

In lesson 15 in the graph section is installed "the graph" globaly like it sais in the video with the command
yarn global add @graphprotocol/graph-cli
but when I try to initiate my subgraph with
graph init --studio nft-marketplace
I get an error that sais
"Command 'graph' not found, but can be installed with:
sudo apt install plotutils"
If I try to run sudo apt install plotutils it get an error that sais "unable to locate package plotutils".

How is it possible that the command graph is not available when I just installed it globaly and how can I fix it?

Ah.. that was a peculiar issue which I faced as well. It was very annoying. But I know for sure if you follow the answer precisely it will work fine.

So, the only work is precisely following it.

Hope this helps.

Yes, I had the exact error -- following it helped me. It should work for you as well IMO if you are on WSL too.

Another way I found online (I recommend the first one though, as it worked for me, this one I cannot personally ascertain): graphprotocol/graph-tooling#753

Thanks a lot! Installing graph with npm instead of yarn fixed the problem ;)

[krakxn]

Wonderful, all the best!

Installing with npm fixed it for me too.

For anyone else who may experience this, it could be that you need to add the graph-cli directory to your PATH after the install.
see where it is by running which graph and then add to your PATH: export PATH=/usr/local/bin/graph:$PATH
note: yours might not be in /usr/local/bin/graph, just replace if you get a different result from the 'which graph'

[nagrarohit]

If anyone's still facing this problem, here's the answer.
If you are using yarn to install the package, you will need to run "yarn graph init", or add ".yarn/bin" to your PATH file.
