Project

Instill CLI

Describe the Bug

The current implementation initiates the default_hostname configuration value with api.instill.tech only when running inst auth login and ~~/.config/instill/hosts.yml being yet created.

If the user run inst local deploy and inst local undeploy in the very beginning, the default_hostname configuration value will be set to localhost:8080 and the unregistration function won't delete ~~/.config/instill/hosts.yml and will leave the default_hostname unchanged. This will cause the following inst auth login failing with ERROR: instance 'localhost:8080' does not exists.

Steps to Reproduce

1. brew install instill-ai/tap/inst
2. inst local deploy
3. inst local undeploy
4. inst auth login

Actual Result

Resulting in ERROR: instance 'localhost:8080' does not exists

Expected Behavior

inst auth login should fallback to user the default api.instlil.tech host configuration.

@harsh This issue is still relevant but not critical. I will find time to fix it or have another engineer fix it in the future.
