Hyper CLI command not installed if /usr/local/bin doesn't exist

• I am on the latest Hyper.app version

• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate

• OS version and name: MacOS 10.13.4

• Hyper.app version: 2.0.0

• Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js: https://gist.github.com/colinhemphill/04a4c1e91a89ac2958e679581e38fb26

• The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app: Is Vanilla

Issue

I updated to 2.0.0, and the hyper commands aren’t working for me. From poking around in documentation, it doesn’t look like I’m supposed to do anything to have access to the CLI, but maybe I’m wrong.

bash: hyper: command not found

I can recreate this in my OSX environment…

1. Download and unzip Hyper
2. Open Hyper after you download (it appears the /usr/local/bin link will link to where ever that is you first started it from - my case was the download temp directory in the browser)
3. The link will be broken once you close that hyper instance
4. Once you drag the app to “Applications” it will be broken also

I fixed it by the following

rm /usr/local/bin/hyper
ln -s /Applications/Hyper.app/Contents/Resources/bin/hyper /usr/local/bin/hyper
ls -lah /usr/local/bin/hyper

The last command checks it.

Sorry if bumping the thread or anything along the lines.

I installed Hyper on a brand new OSX installation - In my case I didn’t get the symbolic link on /usr/local/bin and had to create it manually using - sudo ln -s /Applications/Hyper.app/Contents/Resources/bin/hyper /usr/local/bin/hyper which fixed the problem 👍
