I installed yarn globally in my ubuntu20 vps, but when I use yarn, it says Command 'yarn' not found,

Question

I use those cmd to install yarn:

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
npm install -g yarn

but when I use yarn -v, it shows Command 'yarn' not found. So what should I do now?

you will need to add the install path to your .bashrc/.zshrc and reload your terminal/ssh session (or restart your machine)

supplemental info: in my bash scripts that which I use to deploy apps, I hard code the yarn path and most other executables because of weird nuances

YARN=/usr/bin/yarn
PM2=/usr/bin/pm2
$YARN run productionStart
$PM2 save

you will know where your yarn instance is installed by doing which yarn
