Extension doesn't work on MacOS Ventura

[lucassarcanjo]

Hey @gabrieljsilva,

First of all, I would like to congratulate you on the fantastic work on this extension! That's exactly what I need, but I had trouble executing it on my Mac.

When running it with the console open, I received the following error message:

It appears that there's a permission issue with writing a file in the Insomnia directory. On my Mac, the directory is located at: /Users/lucas/Library/Application Support/Insomnia/plugins/insomnia-plugin-user-picker/.

Usually, in OSX, applications store user data in a different folder, such as: /Users/lucas/Library/Preferences/. However, I'm not sure what the best place is to store this sensitive data, especially since it contains passwords. Storing passwords in plain text is also a security concern.

I was able to run the extension and use it properly by manually editing the Persistor.js file located at /Users/lucas/Library/Application Support/Insomnia/plugins/insomnia-plugin-user-picker/src/persistor/persistor.js. However, it would be good to have a solution for everyone who uses the package.

I can help with testing or even submit a pull request if you'd like. Thanks in advance!

Hello @lucassarcanjo, thanks for the feedback. I'm sorry for the problem, currently I don't have a Mac to test. I would be happy if you could open a Pull Request with a solution or viable alternative to JSON Persistor to avoid permission problems.

About passwords being saved in plain text, I am already working in a way to encrypt them before saving.

Again, thank you for the feedback.

Ok!

I'll work on that and let you know, thanks!
