在Mac OS上设置PATH环境变量

打开终端程序(默认在应用程序/实用程序文件夹中)。运行以下命令

touch ~/.bash_profile; open ~/.bash_profile

这将在默认文本编辑器中打开文件。

以Android SDK为例:

你需要添加路径到你的Android SDK平台工具和工具目录。在我的例子中，我将使用“/Development/android-sdk-macosx”作为SDK的安装目录。增加如下一行:

export PATH=${PATH}:/Development/android-sdk-macosx/platform-tools:/Development/android-sdk-macosx/tools

保存文件并退出文本编辑器。执行.bash_profile更新PATH:

source ~/.bash_profile

现在，每次你打开终端程序，你的路径将包括Android SDK。

布鲁诺正在正确的轨道上。我已经做了大量的研究，如果你想设置在所有GUI应用程序中可用的变量，你唯一的选择是/etc/launchd.conf。

请注意环境。plist不适用于通过Spotlight启动的应用程序。这是由史蒂夫·塞克斯顿记录的。

Open a terminal prompt Type sudo vi /etc/launchd.conf (note: this file might not yet exist) Put contents like the following into the file # Set environment variables here so they are available globally to all apps # (and Terminal), including those launched via Spotlight. # # After editing this file run the following command from the terminal to update # environment variables globally without needing to reboot. # NOTE: You will still need to restart the relevant application (including # Terminal) to pick up the changes! # grep -E "^setenv" /etc/launchd.conf | xargs -t -L 1 launchctl # # See http://www.digitaledgesw.com/node/31 # and http://stackoverflow.com/questions/135688/setting-environment-variables-in-os-x/ # # Note that you must hardcode the paths below, don't use environment variables. # You also need to surround multiple values in quotes, see MAVEN_OPTS example below. # setenv JAVA_VERSION 1.6 setenv JAVA_HOME /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6/Home setenv GROOVY_HOME /Applications/Dev/groovy setenv GRAILS_HOME /Applications/Dev/grails setenv NEXUS_HOME /Applications/Dev/nexus/nexus-webapp setenv JRUBY_HOME /Applications/Dev/jruby setenv ANT_HOME /Applications/Dev/apache-ant setenv ANT_OPTS -Xmx512M setenv MAVEN_OPTS "-Xmx1024M -XX:MaxPermSize=512m" setenv M2_HOME /Applications/Dev/apache-maven setenv JMETER_HOME /Applications/Dev/jakarta-jmeter Save your changes in vi and reboot your Mac. Or use the grep/xargs command which is shown in the code comment above. Prove that your variables are working by opening a Terminal window and typing export and you should see your new variables. These will also be available in IntelliJ IDEA and other GUI applications you launch via Spotlight.

这很简单。编辑文件.profile (vi, nano, Sublime Text或其他文本编辑器)文件。你可以在~/目录(用户目录)中找到它，并像这样设置:

export MY_VAR=[your value here]

Java home的示例:

export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/current

保存它并返回到终端。

你可以用:

source .profile

或者关闭并打开终端窗口。

从macOS 10.12.6 (Sierra)开始，这个方法似乎已经停止在Apache httpd上工作(对于系统和launchctl配置的用户选项)。其他项目似乎没有受到影响。可以想象，这是httpd中的一个bug。

原来的答案

这涉及到OS X 10.10+(特别是10.11+由于无根模式，其中/usr/bin不再可写)。

我在很多地方读到过，使用launchctl setenv PATH <new PATH >来设置PATH变量由于OS X中的一个错误而不起作用(从个人经验来看似乎是正确的)。我发现还有另一种方法可以为非shell启动的应用程序设置PATH:

sudo launchctl config user path <new path>

这个选项记录在launchctl手册页中:

config system | user parameter value Sets persistent configuration information for launchd(8) domains. Only the system domain and user domains may be configured. The location of the persistent storage is an implementation detail, and changes to that storage should only be made through this subcommand. A reboot is required for changes made through this subcommand to take effect. [...] path Sets the PATH environment variable for all services within the target domain to the string value. The string value should conform to the format outlined for the PATH environment variable in environ(7). Note that if a service specifies its own PATH, the service-specific environment variable will take precedence. NOTE: This facility cannot be used to set general environment variables for all services within the domain. It is intentionally scoped to the PATH environment vari- able and nothing else for security reasons.

我已经确认这与从Finder(使用getenv获取PATH)开始的GUI应用程序一起工作。 请注意，您只需要这样做一次，并且更改将在重新启动时保持不变。

对于Bash，尝试将环境变量添加到文件/etc/profile中，以使它们对所有用户可用。不需要重新启动，只需启动一个新的终端会话。

直到和包括OS X v10.7 (Lion)，你可以设置它们:

~/.MacOSX/environment.plist

See:

https://developer.apple.com/legacy/library/qa/qa1067/_index.html https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPRuntimeConfig/Articles/EnvironmentVars.html

对于终端中的PATH，您应该能够在.bash_profile或.profile中设置(尽管您可能必须创建它)

对于OS X v10.8 (Mountain Lion)及以上版本，您需要使用launchd和launchctl。
