Ipm not found error

Hello everyone

I wanna developed a new extension for Inkdrop. But i have a problem.

  1. I use Ghostty as a terminal
  2. I install ipm = npm install -g ipm
  3. I wrote which ipm
  4. There was a message = ipm not found

After that i uninstalled ipm and installed = npm install -g inkdrop-package-manager
But as you can see in screenshot there was a lot of errors again.

how can i resolve this problem?

Hi @cagrizorkol ,

Thanks for the question.
The ipm command is bundled in the app.
In the recent macOS, it doesn’t allow the app to automatically make a symlink to /usr/local/bin.
So, you should make it manually now.

The command can be located here:

/Applications/Inkdrop.app/Contents/Resources/app/ipm/bin/

In the future, it will be detached as a separate CLI tool, so you can install it just like you tried with npm.

Thank you for your answer @craftzdog

First of all I added new export path in my .zshrc file:

export PATH="/Applications/Inkdrop.app/Contents/Resources/app/ipm/bin:$PATH"

After that run source command. source .zshrc

And you can see result screen for ipm command: :+1:

Thank you for your support again :slight_smile:
