Swift 3 only runs from root and once

[ardawan]

Hi,
I've installed Swift 3 language but i can only run it as root and i should type export path command first. It's not permanent.

Code: Select all

root# export PATH="/opt/swift/swift-3.1.1-RELEASE-ubuntu16.10/usr/bin:$PATH"
root# swift
Welcome to Swift version 3.1.1 (swift-3.1.1-RELEASE). Type :help for assistance.

if i exit from root and enter again i cant run swift only by typing swift in the terminal

Code: Select all

root# swift
bash: swift: command not found

This is same when im trying to run it from user account(Not root)

How can i fix it and run it like python from anywhere (root or user account)?

Thanks in advance

Are you supposed to run Swift, or do you write a Swift program and run that? https://developerslogblog.wordpress.com ... an-jessie/

I follow this tutorial to install it. but my problem is before type "swift" to tun swift interpreter in terminal i must type this long command everytime

Code: Select all

export PATH="/opt/swift/swift-2.2-RELEASE-ubuntu14.04/usr/bin:$PATH"

Otherwise i get this

Code: Select all

bash: swift: command not found

Is there any way to make it permanent?

Change as appropriate

At this point, you have Swift installed. Next step is to add it to your system PATH:

Code: Select all

1 export PATH=/usr/local/swift-3.0.1-RELEASE-ubuntu16.04/usr/bin:$PATH

If you want to permanently add Swift to your PATH, use:

Code: Select all

1 echo 'export PATH=/usr/local/swift-3.0.1-RELEASE-ubuntu16.04/usr/bin:$PATH' >> .profile
2 source .profile

Before reading your answer I found the way to paste in the profile file.
But I've visited the link and it's good stuff there.
