initial setup hang on downloading nodejs

initial setup hang on downloading nodejs but I can download nodejs using this link directly

btw, i have nodejs in my path, is this download necessary?

Hmm, are you running on a VPN or anything that might block it?

There's also this workaround which may help:

till hang on the download...

can the process using the system proxy setting? I found that i can download the link using proxy. But fail to download if the proxy is not set.

export https_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:7890 http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:7890 all_proxy=socks5://127.0.0.1:7890 wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v18.15.0/node-v18.15.0-darwin-arm64.tar.gz

is working

@crazyxhz Give me 15 minutes and I'll try to add proxy support to the install-kit script

[johnlindquist]

@crazyxhz Alright, added this logic to grab proxy info from the env vars:

Can you try npx @johnlindquist/install-kit@latest again?

@crazyxhz Can you try the app I published today? It should check for https_proxy env vars and use them during setup

@johnlindquist it worked. Thank you for the quick repair
