Texmaker doesn’t find pygmentize but compiling on command line works

Question

I have installed pygments, but I can't get minted to work in Texmaker.

Let’s say I have the following TeX-File:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{minted}
\begin{document}
\begin{minted}{python}
    n = 2
\end{minted}
\end{document}

When I run it in my macOS terminal using pdflatex -shell-escape test.tex, it produces what it should without problems: A pdf document containing solely the formatted line n = 2. However, when I try to compile the document in Texmaker, I receive the following error:

! Package minted Error: You must have `pygmentize' installed to use this packag
e.
See the minted package documentation for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
 ...
l.3 \begin{document}
Refer to the installation instructions in the minted documentation for more inf
ormation.

I am compiling with -shell-escape. Apparently, Texmaker can’t find pygmentize. Do I have to link to pygmentize in Texmaker? I have the same problem with TeXStudio.

Are you sure you don't by mistake have two different LaTeX installation such that CLI sees one and TeXMaker sees another. — daleif, Dec 12 '22 at 14:02
see earlier today https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/668280/cant-use-minted-package-in-texstudio — David Carlisle, Dec 12 '22 at 14:03
you presumably have not added pygmentize to the path used by the desktop — David Carlisle, Dec 12 '22 at 14:06
Thanks for the answers. I solved the problem by moving pygmentize to another folder, see here — tikzduck, Dec 12 '22 at 16:00
