Configuration

Client configuration in $HOME/.greenspector/config.yml

The main configuration file must be located in $HOME/.greenspector/config.yml. To initialize it, simply use the command:

Code Block

language	bash

gspt init -a <greenspectorApi> -p <privateToken>

where:

greenspectorApi is your GREENSPECTOR Server API URL (for example https://app.greenspector.com/api);
privateToken is your private token, available in the Preferences screen on your GREENSPECTOR Web Interface.

The file $HOME/.greenspector/config.yml should now exists.

To check your configuration, type:

Code Block

language	bash

gspt ping

This command will tell you whether your basic configuration and credentials are correct or not. If correct, you should have the message "Server pinged with success".

Optional proxy configuration

Info

The proxy can be automatically detected.

In windows, the CLI automatically detects WPAD settings or PAC configuration

In linux or mac, the CLI automatically detects env variable HTTPS_PROXY, HTTP_PROXY or FTP_PROXY

If previous gspt ping does not work in your work office, you probably need to configure a proxy to allow the CLI to access Internet.

You can check if you need to configure a proxy. Use a 4G mobile network for your PC and try to use the CLI. If it works, you need to configure a proxy.

Set the proxyUrl property simply by using the command:

Code Block

language	bash

gspt set-proxy
or
gspt set-proxy --proxyUrl <proxyUrl>

If you want more details on this option, you can run the command:

Code Block

language	bash

gspt set-proxy -h

Example for proxy without authentication:

Code Block

language	bash

gspt set-proxy --proxyUrl "http://testproxy.local:3112/"

Example for proxy with authentication:

Code Block

language	bash

gspt set-proxy --proxyUrl "http://myuser:mypassword%241%2C%21@testproxy.local:3112/"

Using --proxyUrl, If you have password with specials characters, you need to encode the password to use as url. You can use this https://smalldev.tools/url-encoder-online

For example, the password mypassword$1,! devient mypassword%241%2C%21

Example for proxy with authentification with interactive mode:

Code Block

language	bash

gspt set-proxy

Enter the Proxy Protocol (http or https)
Proxy Protocol:
http

Enter the Proxy Host
Proxy Host:
testproxy.local

Enter the Proxy Port
Proxy Port:
3112

Is this proxy authenticated? (y/N)
y

Enter the Proxy Username:
myuser

Enter the Proxy Password:
mypassword$1,!

You do not need to encode password in this interactive mode

To check your configuration, type:

Code Block

language	bash

gspt ping

This command will tell you whether your basic configuration and credentials are correct or not. If correct, you should have the message "Server pinged with success".

you can get these errors if you misconfigured your proxy:

Error	Cause
. because an auto detection of your browser is set, you, you can find	Bad port
Error: Get "https://app.greenspector.com/api/ping": Proxy Authentication Required	Bad user or password
Error: Get "https://app.greenspector.com/api/ping": proxyconnect tcp: dial tcp 149.202.59.166:3129: i/o timeout	Bad Host
Error: parse "http://myuser:mypassword": invalid port ":mypassword" after host	Need to encode password
Error: Get "https://app.greenspector.com/api/ping": proxyconnect tcp: tls: first record does not look like a TLS handshake	Bad protocol, use http instead of https or the opposite

Tips:

If you do not know the proxy host of your office and your browser is configured automatically to discover the proxy, you can get the following file via your browser :

wpad.<domaine_local>/wpad.dat

Example : https://wpad.myorganisation.fr/wpad.dat

If you open this file, you can find the host and port for the proxy.

Current working folder configuration in $CURRENT_FOLDER/.greenspector/config.yml
