i'm going through the tutorial here https://docs.cloudposse.com/howto/geodesic/authenticate-with-aws-vault/. however when i run

docker run cloudposse/geodesic:latest-debian | bash

,

geodesic

doesn't get installed to

/usr/local/bin

. when I add

-it

I see a bunch of

Command not found

errors. This is on both a mac and a linux. Also tried running

sudo bash

head's up @Jeremy G (Cloud Posse) has a PR to deprecate this in favor of leapp

saw that! when’s it getting merged? also, i was able to get it running by building my own image. it only worked on my linux machine though

it should be very user friendly at this point. if not, please open issue on

geodesic

repo and we'll have @Jeremy G (Cloud Posse) take a look. and by user friendly, I mean it should error gracefully with instructions on what to do.

yeah no errors, if i didn’t pass the -ti flag it would fail silently

@Michael Dizon When I run

docker run cloudposse/geodesic:latest-debian | bash

I get a message printed out. (Too long to copy here.) If you do not get a message, that is worth investigating. The case where you run

docker run -it cloudposse/geodesic:dev-alpine  | bash

is one I did not think of guarding against. I will fix that.

@Jeremy G (Cloud Posse) here's the output when I run

docker run cloudposse/geodesic:latest-debian | bash

########################################################################################
# Attach a terminal (docker run --rm --it ...) if you want to run a shell.
# Run the following to install the script that runs
# Geodesic with all its features (the recommended way to use Geodesic):
#   docker run --rm cloudposse/geodesic:latest-debian init | bash
# (On a Linux workstation, you might need to use "sudo bash" instead of just "bash")
########################################################################################

Yes, I thought that was made clear in the output message. How would you suggest I make it clearer?

sigh. i guess i glazed over the

init

part

Thanks for showing another path we need to guard against. 🙂

yep! thanks for the feedback
