I’m attempting to install Node Mixin, as described at [node\_exporter/docs/node-mixin at master · prometheus/node\_exporter · GitHub](https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/tree/master/docs/node-mixin). The three "go get . . . " commands executed without error, however jb install results in a “command not found” Any suggestions on moving forward with this install? Thanks ---

Do you have jb in your path? Can you try `go install` instead of `go get` ? ---

Thanks @roidelapluie. go install . . . worked on all three lines (no error anyway) go env returned, among all the other env info: GOPATH="/storage/home/hcodaman1/gbeyer3/go" GOROOT="/usr/lib/golang" Not sure which should be in my path, but neither one is. Nevertheless, I cd’d to both, executed “jb install” which again resulted in command not found. ---

> [@gregGT](#): > > /storage/home/hcodaman1/gbeyer3/go You could try `export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin` before running the commands. ---

added /storage/home/hcodaman1/gbeyer3/go to path. Still getting command not found for jb install. Which is crazy, as it shows in a ls: [gbeyer3@gbeyer-test /storage/home/hcodaman1/gbeyer3/go/bin]$ll total 20202 -rwxr-xr-x 1 gbeyer3 pace-admins 10046085 Mar 19 09:50 jb -rwxr-xr-x 1 gbeyer3 pace-admins 6075177 Mar 19 09:50 jsonnet -rwxr-xr-x 1 gbeyer3 pace-admins 4296713 Mar 19 09:50 jsonnetfmt ---

OK, I figured out – the documentation is wrong at the first Grafana URL I referenced ☹ The command SHOULD be ./jb install At least I get _something_ to happen with ./ BUT I still get a new error: [gbeyer3@gbeyer-test /storage/home/hcodaman1/gbeyer3/go/bin]$./jb install jb: error: failed to load jsonnetfile: open /storage/home/hcodaman1/gbeyer3/go/bin/jsonnetfile.json: no such file or directory It seems I’m missing .json file(s) ? ---

> [@gregGT](#): > > /storage/home/hcodaman1/gbeyer3/go/bin You would need to go to where you cloned prometheus, then run `/storage/home/hcodaman1/gbeyer3/go/bin/jb`. ---

I _think_ this is what you mean. Prometheus is installed (cloned?) in /gbeyer3/prometheus-2.24.1.linux-amd64 Within that dir I executed ./storage/home/hcodaman1/gbeyer3/go/bin/jb ls -l shows that the jb file exists and is executable, still I get a no such file or directory.

Use ` /storage/home/hcodaman1/gbeyer3/go/bin/jb` (without the dot).
