Can't integrate with file manager

[romanovzky]

Hi!

Doing this on Linux (arch), when running

python -m nbopen.install_xdg

I get

xdg-mime: file '/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/nbopen/application-x-ipynb+json.xml' does not exist
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/runpy.py", line 193, in _run_module_as_main

How did you install it before that step? The file is there in the wheel on PyPI.

[romanovzky]

Good point, I did it from arch repos. Works fine if sudo pip instead. Can mark as closed.

Looking at the AUR recipe, it looks like they've done that step for you and then removed the file from the Python package. So installing it from Arch should integrate it with your file manager without needing to run the install_xdg step.
