katacoda: Stages scenario seems to never start

[iesahin]

https://katacoda.com/dvc/courses/get-started/stages scenario has

~$ :;: ===================================
~$ :;: Please wait until DVC is installed.
~$ :;: ===================================
~$ until hash dvc &>/dev/null; do sleep 1; done

at start but never seems to end. It looks it's not installed after C-c.

~$ until hash dvc &>/dev/null; do sleep 1; done
^C  
~$ dvc --version

Command 'dvc' not found, but can be installed with:

snap install dvc

It might be better to ask the user to install via snap install --classic dvc at first.

Also

wget https://code.dvc.org/get-started/code.zip
unzip code.zip
rm code.zip
tree
git status -s
git add params.yaml src/
git status -s

commands should have cd src somewhere before git status and rm code.zip

Excuse me, I thought code.zip contains a git repository. That seems not the case. There is only a .gitconfig file at ~. Where should the git repository be?

~$ ll -aR | grep .git
-rw-r--r--  1 root root   53 Feb 12 10:50 .gitconfig

The same problem seems to occur in https://katacoda.com/dvc/courses/get-started/pipelines

I was trying to test #1586 but the whole scenario seems broken now.

From the looks of https://github.com/iterative/katacoda-scenarios/blob/master/get-started/stages/assets/prepare.sh I think this issue is related with #2183 . pip3 install dvc line is probably failing and the waiting line until ... never ends.

Hmmm interesting. Yeah we need to totally re-do them. Closing in favor of #1400. Thanks

[jorgeorpinel]

OK I guess since this is labeled bug and has a specific priority we can leave it for now.

[iesahin]

I think we can just close this. @jorgeorpinel It's a bug but can't be solved without more extensive changes described in #1400

[jorgeorpinel]

AGreed, should by fixed along with #1400. Ok thanks, closing.
