I am trying to setup a bunch of development projects in my Mac. I have to run various tools like python, ruby, scala, groovy etc.
To see if a tool is available I use options like



ruby --version. 


Instead I would like to see all the list of tools available in Mac terminal via a single command. What is the command/options for it?

    ls /bin /usr/bin /usr/local/bin. Not sure this is what you are looking for though.

  • Wouldn't it be easier to just check to see if a command exists rather than go through all the commands in the shell? Eg: type <command>

The easiest is simply to open the Terminal and then press the TAB key twice. You'll be asked if you want to see all possibilities - reply "y" and you'll get the full list.

    See the answers from this U&L Q&A titled:
    List all commands that a shell knows
    .



    My personal favorite is to utilize compgen since this is part of the family of tools used to build all the tab completion when you're in a terminal and hit tab> + tab twice.



    $ compgen -c


    Example



    $ compgen -c | tail
    deepcopy-gen
    kube-controller-manager
    informer-gen
    lister-gen
    etcd
    gen-apidocs
    kube-apiserver
    kubectl
    kubebuilder
    conversion-gen


    Incidentally, if you want to know where one of these executables lives on your HDD use type -a <cmd> to find it:



    $ type -a ansible
    ansible is aliased to `ANSIBLE_CONFIG=~/.ansible.cfg ansible'
    ansible is /usr/local/bin/ansible


    This shows that the command ansible is an alias and also lives locally on the HDD here: /usr/local/bin/ansible.

      You could take the PATH variable and translate the colons into spaces then list the files in those directories.



      ls $(tr ':' ' ' <<<"$PATH")
