Derby.js - npm install derby successful, but derby command not found

I'm following the Derby.js getting started guide. I have run

$ npm install -g derby

and everything succeeds, but when I enter 

$ derby new app-name

I get:

-bash: derby: command not found

I'm on Mac OS 10.8, Node v0.10.3, npm v1.2.17

As of June 2014, the docs are still for Derby 0.5 while 0.6 is in npm. Apparently, generator-derby is currently the recommended way to start a 0.6 project:

npm install -g yo
npm install -g generator-derby
mkdir myapp
cd myapp
yo derby

Make sure to install and start MongoDB and then npm start.

The command line interface portion of Derby is vaporware so far. There is no bin setting in the package.json, which is what instructs npm to make executable scripts.

I suspect the documentation got ahead of the source code.

Check if NODE_PATH and PATH variables contain the location to executable files

export NODE_PATH="/usr/local/lib/node"

export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/local/share/npm/bin:$PATH"

See this page.
