The system path can be added by command line or bashrc file
export PATH="$PATH:/mnt/c/Users/StanleyChan/terraform"
Alias tf=terrafrom
By specifying the directory, the shell will receive the user input and find the executables with the exact the same name, for example:
- Shell: terraform
- Action: find the terraform.exe within terraform folder specified in the path. As there is alias, typing “tf” in the shell has the same effect as “terraform”
