If something goes wrong
- "command not found: 1one": close the terminal window, open a new one and try again.
- "1onE needs Python 3": on a Mac run
xcode-select --install. On Windows, install Python from python.org and tick "Add to PATH". Then run the install command again. - "couldn't check 1onE's security certificate": on a Mac, open Finder › Applications › Python 3.x and double-click "Install Certificates.command".
- "You're not signed in": run
1one login. - Still stuck? Email [email protected] with the exact message you see. Never send your password.
Your sign-in is safe
Your password is never stored. 1onE keeps only a sign-in key in a file only you can read (~/.config/1one). Running 1one logout deletes it.
Remove it
Mac or Linux:
1one logout; rm -f ~/.local/bin/1oneWindows (PowerShell):
1one logout; Remove-Item -Recurse "$env:USERPROFILE\.1one"
