wrk install issue - behind proxy?

[andreagalle]

I've been using your wonderful ws for 1yr at work, as well as for personal projects, but this is the very first time I try out the wrk install coommand to try out couple Apps. I get, for any app, the following error:

11:39:18 with abc in ~p ➜ docker
zsh: command not found: docker
11:39:22 with abc in ~p ➜ wrk install docker==24.0.4-isolate
🛑 App or app version not found
11:39:46 with abc in ~p ➜ wrk install gpt                   
🛑 App or app version not found

This error 🛑 App or app version not found seems to me related to proxy issues, probably, since I experience it when I run the above comamnd from my company workstation and not from home. Is there the possibility to pass the wrk install command the proxy settings?

Within my workspace, all the corresponding environments variable are properly configured:

11:43:44 with abc in ~p ➜ env | grep -i proxy                  
HTTPS_PROXY=http://xxx.xx.xxx.xx:8080
no_proxy=xxx.xx.xxx.xx
NO_PROXY=xxx.xx.xxx.xx
https_proxy=http://xxx.xx.xxx.xx:8080
http_proxy=http://xxx.xx.xxx.xx:8080
HTTP_PROXY=http://xxx.xx.xxx.xx:8080

Wouldn't be a good idea to redirect stderr to stdout too once the installation script is ran?

Neither setting up the following directory:

Acquire::http::Proxy "http://yourproxyaddress:proxyport";

into a file within the directory here below, solves this issue.

/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/

I confirm it is the proxy, since I am getting:

10:37:41 with abc in ~p ➜ curl https://api.alnoda.org/api/v1/app/docker/24.0.4-isolate/meta/   
curl: (56) Received HTTP code 503 from proxy after CONNECT

that indicates the fetch at this line is failing. Tell me if you need me to add the -v opt.

While the same curl from outside the container (with proxy properly configured) gives the following supposedly correct output:

It finally worked, once I set up the http_proxy and https_proxy environment variables (switching to another proxy).

10:41:26 with abc in ~p ➜ export https_proxy=http://username:password@yourproxyaddress:proxyport

***********************************************
!!! INFO !!!
This is a Docker [+ Compose] which is isolated from the host. Workspace will run its own rootless docker daemon. 

Compared to the Docker-host version of Alnoda Docker app, stadalone isolated docker daemon will require additional resources.

If you want to connect to the host Docker daemon from the workspace instead, install "host" version of Alnoda Docker app

Just to recap: setting up HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY was not resolving as well as setting up the proxy under the following path /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/

Unfortunately even though the installation was complete, no docker was installed within the system. I tried out the other docker versions too, without success. Running single commands from your # Install script guide, I get the following error:

14:32:19 with abc in ~p took 1m 12s ➜ sudo apt-get install -y docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-compose-plugin
