Description
When I use the gel-py command, I get the following error:
Failed to connect to the EdgeDB instance: Found gel.toml but the project is not initialized. Run gel project init.
However, in reality, I have already successfully initialized the project using the gel project init command.
Additionally, I tried testing with different kinds of instances and consistently encountered the above error. The only difference is that for the local type of instance, the status shows as "inactive," while for the remote type of instance deployed using Docker, the status shows as "up."
I attempted to ask the documentation AI but did not receive an answer that could resolve this bug.
- Gel Version:7.0+501517f(local) / 7.0+4472e7c(docker)
- Gel CLI Version:7.9.0+ec0fa4d
- OS Version:windows11
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a new project.
2.Initialize the project using the gel project init command.
3.Edit default.gel in the dbschema folder to define some types.
4.Create and write get_users.edgeql following the example in the official documentation — Learn — Tutorials — Build a Search Bot with FastAPI.
5.Execute the gel-py command and encounter the error.
Additionally, attached is the log from when I executed the gel project init command for reference:
No gel.toml (or edgedb.toml) found in E:\LabelMoe\componet_test\gelExperiment\searchbot or above
