[Question] Is ngrok / pyngrok still not valid in google colab enviroment?

timtensor commented 4 months ago

I tried the colab notebook to use google colab together with my vscode environment. Is it still banned because i failed to connect it to the notebook machine.

Hi @timtensor . Colab is not blocked on our end, could you share some additional detail about what you are trying to do and what kinds of errors/issues you are running into?

Actually i was trying to run vscode via pyngrok to run my local code in remote server. Everytime pyngrok runs, colab mentions that is not permitted and gets disconnected.

Is there a way to run vscode remotely on ngrok ?

Hi @timtensor apologies for the delayed response. So pyngrok is not an officially supported ngrok library, for that we recommend ngrok-python. However, pyngrok is using our agent under the hood, so there are a few things that could be happening:

We require that you have a valid authtoken to connect to ngrok. In the past you could connect without authenticating so this could be a reason.
We have an agent version support policy for free accounts. Pyngrok installs a very old version of ngrok by default. You might need to upgrade to a more recent version to make it work.

With respect to using VSCode and ngrok, we have a guide

ngrok / ngrok-python
