can I see an example please?

Hi MuddySquid7 , you can use the extra bash script setting to inject this configuration directly into the pip.conf file

are you referring to 

extra_docker_shell_

scrip

t

Correct

the thing is that this runs before you create the virtual environment, so then in the new environment those settings are no longer there

Actually that is better, because this is what we need to setup the pip before it is used. So instead of passing --trusted-host just do:
extra_docker_shell_script: ["echo \"[global] \n trusted-host = pypi.python.org pypi.org files.pythonhosted.org YOUR_SERVER_HERE\" >> /etc/pip.conf", ]

What do you mean by local agent?

sorry, in my case it's the default mode

exactly 🙂

that worked, thanks!!

Do you mean an agent that's not using docker but virtualenv?

the thing is that this runs before you create the virtual environment, so then in the new environment those settings are no longer there

that worked, thanks!!

and would it be possible to run it using the normal local agent?

Well, this script setting is only for docker, but in the "default" mode, you're basically setting up the agent, so you can set the correct value to the pip.conf file when you set up the agent, once

oh right, it will try to use globals from /etc/pip.conf first and then from the virtualenv's pip.conf

are you referring to extra_docker_shell_ scrip t SuccessfulKoala55 ?
