cd /

For bash Terminal


If you are using bash terminal then the location of fill will be as follows. The file name would be "bashrc".
/Users/YOUR-USER-NAME/.bashrc

For zsh Terminal


For zshrc then it will be located below, the name of the file will be "zshrc".
/Users/YOUR-USER-NAME/.zshrc

The next step is to specify the export path of the "composer vendor bin" to the "bashrc" or "zshrc" file and it's like below.
echo 'export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin"' >> ~/.bashrc

# If you are using zshrc
echo 'export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin"' >> ~/.zshrc
