bash - Mac OS X 10.11 - Add Postgres to $PATH Unsuccessful -


i trying install postgres in order use heroku.

i following instructions in heroku tutorial, , after postgres installation (which successful), says configure .bash_profile allow postgres command line functionality.

i following instructions here, unable add line:

export path=$path:/applications/postgres.app/contents/versions/latest/bin 

that folder in fact contain "psql" on computer, should work. here current .bash_profile:

# setting path python 2.7 # orginal version saved in .bash_profile.pysave path="/library/frameworks/python.framework/versions/2.7/bin:${path}" export path  # next line updates path google cloud sdk. source '/users/user/google-cloud-sdk/path.bash.inc'  # next line enables shell command completion gcloud. source '/users/user/google-cloud-sdk/completion.bash.inc' 

i tried add postgres line end of file, not working. after searching online, there not seem consensus on how add paths .bash_profile. have tried many versions listed, none have worked.

please let me know if i'm doing incorrectly!

add line end of .bash_profile:

export path=/applications/postgres.app/contents/versions/latest/bin:$path 

this makes search of binary in location "before rest of path"

kill instances of terminal , open again, should work.

try which xxx xxx name of binary inside /applications/postgres.app/contents/versions/latest/bin , check if it's returning location.

tell me if works.
