Ike expects a version of Telepresence you cannot get (easily)

[cvicens]

Issue Overview

Unless you still have telepresence v1 you cannot run ike cli because v2 is not supported

Expected Behaviour

If I run:

$ oc get deploy
NAME                                     READY   UP-TO-DATE   AVAILABLE   AGE
fruit-gateway                            1/1     1            1           18h
fruit-service                            1/1     1            1           18h
fruit-service-db                         1/1     1            1           18h

And then I run:

$ ike develop  \
  --deployment fruit-gateway \
  --port 8080 \
  --watch \
  --run 'mvn quarkus:dev -f fruit-gateway/pom.xml' \
  --route header:end-user=alien-ike

This would work if I had telepresence v1 but I could only find v2 or at least fail for another reason...

Hi @cvicens, sorry for the trouble.

This would work if I had telepresence v1 but I could only find v2 or at least fail for another reason...

I think they (datawire) try to get everyone on v2 as v1 is no longer supported (and both tools are entirely different in the way they work). We can't use v2 easily (if at all) though.

Here's what you can do (assuming you are on Fedora):

curl -sL https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/datawireio/telepresence/script.rpm.sh | sudo bash
sudo dnf install telepresence

For deb package you can use script.deb.sh script instead.

I will put this in our docs for everyone else.

HTH

Sorry for the late reply! It's a pity I used to like telepresence a lot and even recommend it to customers... Are there any solutions planned?

[bartoszmajsak]

Are there any solutions planned?

@cvicens what do you mean by planned? There are other tools out there that you can use.

Hi! and is Ike going to rely on one of those? BTW if kubefwd one of those?
