Missing Environment variables

See original GitHub issue

I am not sure if the problem is simple-ssh or my configuration, so lets explain the problem.

I have a openSSH server that I want to connect with a node js client, using simple-ssh. When I connect to the server, I try to call npm, that is installed on the server, using exec but the simple-ssh can’t find npm (I try doing npm-v).

When I am connected with a real ssh client, I have no problem doing npm -v

Also, I export node js binary folder and they are visible in the $PATH env , but missing in the simple-ssh connection.

Any idea?

Thanks for your help, the second answer was my solution!! I had search too much for the node js/simple-ssh problem, but beginning my command with: source /etc/profile; solved my problem. source /etc/profile;echo $PATH now print the node js bin path. 👍
