<ark3> The install script runs
python3 from your shell path.
<gregw> Yeah and I have a python3 binary in my $PATH under $HOME/.pyenv/shims/python3
<ark3> Can you verify that
python3 --version by itself produces something like Python 3.7.1 and then run env PREFIX=/place/to/install ./install.sh?
<gregw> ah it has to do with running sudo...if i run that command without sudo then it finds the modules and executes python code
<gregw> makes sense since the superuser doesn't have the same python environment as my logged in user
<gregw> thanks!
<ark3> Hmm. We don't test that installer with sudo. That's part of the problem here. It's only the last few steps that need privileges. Perhaps we should split up the "build binary" and "install binary" bits.
<JM> Morning; I'm wrangling a network traffic routing setup. I am on OSX and hitting a single node k8s installed in an EC2 instance. I can telepresence the deployment just fine, but I want to run a PHP debugger locally. In an "all software on the same host" setup xdebug would connect to
localhost:9000 and the IDE would have a listener present to pick it up. In a non-telepresence host-run docker container, you'd change localhost to host.docker.internal or docker.for.mac.localhost and the traffic would show up on the OSX host. I suspect that's not quite working right due to the various networking loops going on with telepresence, however. Any suggestions for how to get that connection from my --swap-deployment container to show up on my hostmachine so the IDE can pick it up? Thanks!
<ark3> I have a solution for you, but it's somewhat convoluted.
<JM> Hit me 🙂
<ark3> Telepresence sets up and exposes an ssh server in its network container, then uses
ssh -R to forward a port in the container to something on the host. This avoids using host.docker.internal, which doesn't work on Linux.
<ark3> You can use that same ssh server to set up a second port forward.
<JM> I'm open to trying that out; what would the command for that look like?
<ark3> Yup, working on it.
<ark3> You'll see a
docker run command that has --publish=127.0.0.1:port:38022/tcp
<ark3> That port, the one associated with 38022 in the container, is the port on your host machine exposing the ssh server.
<ark3> Now, to run your client, you'll want some extra options to ssh.
<ark3> Search the log file for
Launching Local SSH port forward to see what I mean.
<ark3> Does that make some amount of sense?
<ark3> Yes, exactly.
<JM> Bingo
<ark3> Success, with the debugger and all?
<ark3> Excellent.
<JM> I haven't quite resolved the best way to get the proper container name, but
docker inspect --format='{{(index (index .NetworkSettings.Ports "38022/tcp") 0).HostPort}}' telepresence-1554143629-148726-77228 gets you the right port to connect to
<JM> it's complicated by the fact you might have multiples of these running (rare, but...)
<sanha> @anton186 I'm preparing for documentation, but you can check these stuffs before that.

<teejae> hi, i'm just looking into telepresence for the first time. i'm using
vpn-tcp mode, and trying to load up a website served from inside the cluster, but relies on outside resources (Google Firebase). however, once i start the vpn-tcp mode, even my browsers etc can't see external websites (http://google.com, http://slack.com, etc). am i doing something wrong? do i need --also-proxy or some other setup? the docs claim i don't need it, and public websites aren't affected, but maybe i'm missing something. i appreciate any help
<teejae> otherwise, telepresence looks to be a great tool
<teejae> @ark3 yes, that's right. i'm using a minikube in this case
<teejae> is that an unsupported/unintended config?
<teejae> using the default
minikube context name for now
<ark3> Hmm. That's a bug. Could you file an issue please? I could use the telepresence.log file from a simple session, maybe just
curl -svk https://kubernetes.default/api/ and curl http://google.com so I can see what happens with DNS in the log file.
<teejae> ok. i'll have to get to that in a bit
<teejae> what is kubernetes.default? is that some well known address? i'm relatively new to kubernetes. (used to work at google, so used the borg stuff)
<teejae> sorry for all the dumb questions
<ark3> Thanks in advance for the issue.
