Can't install `argocd` cli

[danielllek]

Hi,

something strange is happening - argocd cli is visible in versions, tough it can't be installed.

$ binenv version
binenv version 0.18.0 (built 2022-03-16T22:29:36Z)

$ binenv update
2022-03-22T21:55:09+01:00 INF retrieving distribution cache from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devops-works/binenv/develop/distributions/cache.json
2022-03-22T21:55:09+01:00 INF fetched updates for 256 distributions

$ binenv versions |grep argocd
argocd: 2.3.1 2.3.0 2.3.0-rc5 .......................

$ binenv search argocd
$

$ binenv install argocd
2022-03-22T21:55:21+01:00 ERR unable to install "argocd" () error="no fetcher found for \"argocd\""

Any ideas where's the problem? I can install other tools without problems.

Weird. I can not reproduce. Could you please show me the outputs of:

• md5sum ~/.config/binenv/distributions.yaml
• grep -A12 "argocd:" ~/.config/binenv/distributions.yaml

After this, you can try:binenv update --distributions and try again to install argocd.

Thanks & good luck !

Thanks for quick reply, installation works after binenv update --distributions :)

Here are cmds with outputs you asked for:

$ md5sum ~/.config/binenv/distributions.yaml

$ grep -A12 "argocd:" ~/.config/binenv/distributions.yaml
$

$ binenv update --distributions

$ grep -A12 "argocd:" ~/.config/binenv/distributions.yaml

Awesome, thanks a lot ! I guess you had a very old distributions.yaml file.

argocd has been introduced in binenv 15 months ago; could your distribution.yml be that old ?

[danielllek]

It could, I've started using binenv when it had huge problems doing update (afair some performance problem on hosting side) :) Long ago, but don't remember exactly when.

Ok. thanks for the report. Good to hear that this is solved.
