Agent Url Override about devpod

[pascalbreuninger]

Hey @MaGaudin, thanks for opening the issue.
You're right, overwriting the agent URL with presigned URLs won't work because DevPod tries to download the binary for the current VM architecture by appending devpod-linux-$ARCH to the DEVPOD_AGENT_URL environment variable.

We could substitute ${BIN_NAME} in the URL to make this work

Hi @pascalbreuninger ,

thank you so much for your reply. Are you going to implement this modification? Or, is there something that we can do (using the console) to implement what you're saying?

@MaGaudin I've linked a PR with an implementation, will kick off an alpha release for you to test the changes after tests pass.
edit: here we go https://github.com/loft-sh/devpod/releases/tag/v0.5.13-alpha.0

You'll need to pass in the agent url through the DEVPOD_AGENT_URL environment variable and can then add ${BIN_NAME} as a placeholder. Make sure to escape the dollar sign if you're on the command line so prevent the shell variable expansion.

example: export DEVPOD_AGENT_URL=https://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/test/\${BIN_NAME}?q=somekeyhere

Hi @pascalbreuninger,

you were really kind. I downloaded the alpha version of DevPod but, after overriding the Agent Url as below:

I had the same error as before:

Am I doing something wrong?
