'command not found' though pylint appears to be installed

I ran pip install --user pylint without getting any error, but I get pylint: command not found when I try pylint foo.py although there is a directory /Users/erc/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages/pylint containing what I would guess are all the necessary files (although no pylint.py but maybe the __main__.py or __ini__.py are there for that). Also, I get nothing withwhich pylint.

What can I try?

I had faced the same issue even though I had pylint as well as pip installed. The issue is because the path is not pointing to the place where these libraries are present. eg: my path - programs/python/python35/ and whereas my pip and pylint were installed in programs/python/python35/Scripts. So when I added the path to environment variable it worked.
