Cannot install simple plugin as CCX

UXP Developer Tool

Hey everyone,

I have a plugin which works in development when loading it, but it fails to install as CCX after packaging it through UXP Developer Tools. I get an error: “Couldn’t install plugin, please try again. Error code -2”

Here are the very basic files:

main.js:

const { entrypoints } = require(“uxp”);

entrypoints.setup({
panels: {
translator: {
show(node) {
node.innerHTML = “

Plugin loaded successfully

”;
}
}
}
});

manifest.json:

{
“id”: “com.nativ.culturalization”,
“name”: “Nativ Culturalization”,
“version”: “1.0.0”,
“main”: “index.html”,
“host”: {
“app”: “PS”,
“minVersion”: “24.0.0”
},
“manifestVersion”: 5,
“entrypoints”: [
{
“type”: “panel”,
“id”: “translator”,
“label”: {
“default”: “Nativ Culturalization”
},
“icons”: [
{
“width”: 32,
“height”: 32,
“path”: “icons/icon_D.png”
}
]
}
],
“icons”: [
{
“width”: 23,
“height”: 23,
“path”: “icons/dark@1x.png”
}
]
}

How to fix?

  1. Use code blocks with three backticks (```) for code instead of quote blocks
  2. Did you try searching?

after lots of search and trial & error, turns out I needed to put the ccx inside Applications on mac. no idea why that’s the case, hope it helps others!
