💭 python script is not found
============================

!None

![[None]]

When setting up a new machine, vm, docker image you might be installing command line tools from places like pip. They will often put executables in your `~/.local/bin` directory, but by default your shell is not looking in that directory for commands.

``` bash
 WARNING: The script dotenv is installed in '/home/falcon/.local/bin' which is not on PATH.
 Consider adding this directory to PATH or, if you prefer to suppress this warning, use --no-warn-script-location.
```

To solve this you need to add that directory to your $PATH.

``` bash
export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin
```

To make this change permanant add this line to your shell's init script, which is likely something like `~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshrc`.
