Set Nano as a Default Editor over Vim [Duplicate]

Every time I login to ssh terminal to edit files I execute the command

export EDITOR=nano

How Could I set nano as default editor so I shouldn't execute this command anymore

  1. Remove the spaces around the =; that syntax is invalid.
  2. Put the line into ~/.bashrc (assuming you use the Bash shell).
