Poetry Command Not Found on zsh

• I am on the latest Poetry version.
• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
• If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option).

• OS version and name: <macOS 10.14 Mojave>
• Poetry version: <0.12.2>

Issue

I am a noob to poetry, and just installed poetry using the curl command.

I got the following:

Retrieving Poetry metadata

# Welcome to Poetry!

This will download and install the latest version of Poetry,
a dependency and package manager for Python.

It will add the `poetry` command to Poetry's bin directory, located at:

$HOME/.poetry/bin

This path will then be added to your `PATH` environment variable by
modifying the profile files located at:

$HOME/.profile
$HOME/.zprofile

You can uninstall at any time with `poetry self:uninstall`,
or by executing this script with the --uninstall option,
and these changes will be reverted.

Installing version: 0.12.2
  - Downloading poetry-0.12.2-darwin.tar.gz (7.00MB)

Poetry (0.12.2) is installed now. Great!

To get started you need Poetry's bin directory ($HOME/.poetry/bin) in your `PATH`
environment variable. Next time you log in this will be done
automatically.

To configure your current shell run `source $HOME/.poetry/env`

But when I start a new shell, and run poetry --version, I get: zsh: command not found: poetry

Works fine if I do source $HOME/.poetry/env. But doesn’t retain for a new shell. I have to do this every time I open a new shell.

I have added export PATH="$HOME/.poetry/bin:$PATH" to the my .zshrc, and things work.

I notice that Google Cloud SDK automatically appended its path and path completions to my .zshrc. Maybe thats something poetry could also do?

Closing this issue.

So your shell does not source neither the .zprofile file nor the .profile file. That’s weird since ~/.zprofile should always be sourced by zsh.

If it’s not you might want to do it yourself in your .zshrc file.

Just to be sure: has export PATH="$HOME/.poetry/bin:$PATH" been added to ~/.zprofile?
