Can't run the tests locally about ngsi-timeseries-api HOT 5 OPEN

did you follow instructions here: https://quantumleap.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/contributing/ ?

from ngsi-timeseries-api.

Yes, I have followed the instructions there.

When I run source setup_dev_env.sh, I get the following:

alias: Host name lookup failure
ifconfig: `--help' gives usage information.

probably your operating system is not compatible with this part of the script:

i think this was tested on macosx and ubuntu, on other OSes you are a bit on your own to make it work.

I am currently running the project on WSL.
OS: Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS (GNU/Linux 5.10.16.3-microsoft-standard-WSL2 x86_64)

from ngsi-timeseries-api.

Hi @rohit-vrrr, unfortunately we don't support Windows/WSL2---in principle it should work, but like you've just shown us, practice is a different story :-)

I suppose you could make it work w/ some tweaks, specifically it looks like the blocker is this line

• https://github.com/orchestracities/ngsi-timeseries-api/blob/master/setup_dev_env.sh#L22

which aliases 192.0.0.1 to your loopback interface. You should replace that line with a WSL equivalent, see e.g.

Hope this helps!
