Jss not recognized as internal or external command while running in C#

Question

I am calling a batch file via c# using powershell library, I see the below error

'jss' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

Whereas manually executing the batch file runs with no issues.

c#

 using (PowerShell powershell = PowerShell.Create())
        {
            powershell.AddCommand("c:\\test.bat", true);
            Collection<PSObject> results = powershell.Invoke();
            PSDataCollection<ErrorRecord> error = powershell.Streams.Error;
            if (error.Count > 0)
            {
                for (int i = 0; i < error.Count; i++)
                {

                }

            }
        }

Batch file

cd C:\Projects\FirstJss

jss deploy app --includeContent --includeDictionary --acceptCertificate

Error

JSS command line is an part of @sitecore-jss/sitecore-jss-cli npm package. It means that rules on how to run it are exactly the same as for other npm packages.

You need either:

• Install @sitecore-jss/sitecore-jss-cli globally by execution npm i @sitecore-jss/sitecore-jss-cli -g

or:

• Installed @sitecore-jss/sitecore-jss-cli to the directory, where you run your script. Change dir to C:\Projects\FirstJss and install it there npm i @sitecore-jss/sitecore-jss-cli
