node.js - Git Bash and webpack -


hello guys i'm trying learn webpack i've been following tutorials , i've run problems. i've installed webpack locally in folder working in npm install webpack --save-dev. made 2 js scripts , wanted bundle them , i've tried following command webpack script-1.js /.bundle.js in windowspowershell (i'm using windows 7). made following error

webpack not recognized internal or external command operable program or batch file

so installed webpack globally, , when used same command in powershell (i have opened admin), made bundle.js file not in directory working in, in c:
after failure i've decided try using git bash. first i've tried command webpack script-1.js /.bundle.js , got following error

bash: webpack: command not found

finally after trying able make work using command in git bash node_modules/.bin/webpack ./script-1.js bundle.js
there way fix this, can type webpack instead of whole path ? there way fix path in powershell ?

this mine package.json

edit: i've come following solution in end: add package.json file

  "scripts" : {   "build" : "webpack ./entry.js bundle.js"   } 

and type npm run build still run local version because npm first in ./node_modules/.bin/

that kind of path used in git windows bash.
see this issue

we use cmdr (http://cmder.net/ ) emulate console on windows machines.
still had modify scripts , separate build clean , build tasks working.

"scripts": {     "clean": "rm -rf dist",     "build": "node_modules/.bin/babel-node -- ./node_modules/webpack/bin/webpack.js --stats --config  ./webpack/prod.config.js",     ... }, 

you can see similar instruction in this project package.json:

"build-main": "cross-env node_env=production node -r babel-register ./node_modules/webpack/bin/webpack --config webpack.config.electron.js --progress --profile --colors",
