I'd like some help on how reach appwrite (api) from a function on my local dev machine. Essentially can anyone help me with the endpoint to use for the SDK Client in my local function? That is for
final client = Client().setEndpoint('https://localhost/v1')

I've tried:

My local ip http://192.168.1.11/v1
appwrite service name (from compose) http//:appwrite/v1
Localhost http://localhost/v1 (doesn't work obviously)

But from this message it seems Steven got it to work but I just can't seem to figure it out. This is frustrating because I know I'm missing something simple here.

Summary

Developers are trying to reach Appwrite API from a function on their local machine. Initially had issues with connecting to `https://localhost/v1` resulting in "Connection failed." Upgraded to the local IP but faced "Execution timed out." Tried different endpoints without success. Another developer mentioned using `host.docker.internal` as `_APP_DOMAIN_FUNCTIONS`, also questioning how Docker was installed. No specific solution provided in the thread, but it appears the primary issue is correctly defining the endpoint for the SDK Client.

The local IP should work...maybe use https? What's the error you get?

Also, are you using windows?

I'm using Linux. I've tried both http and https.

Initially I was getting this error when I was using https://localhost/v1:

AppwriteException: , Connection failed (0) #0      ClientIO.call (package:dart_appwrite/src/client_io.dart:233)
<asynchronous suspension>
#1      Databases.listDocuments (package:dart_appwrite/services/databases.dart:1016)
<asynchronous suspension>
#2      getClassIdIfExists (package:starter_template/main.dart:92)
<asynchronous suspension>
#3      main (package:starter_template/main.dart:44)
<asynchronous suspension>
#4      Future.any.onValue (dart:async/future.dart:615)
<asynchronous suspension>

type 'Null' is not a subtype of type 'int' of 'statusCode'
#0      main (package:starter_template/main.dart)
<asynchronous suspension>
#1      Future.any.onValue (dart:async/future.dart:615)
<asynchronous suspension>

But after updating it to the local ip I'm getting Execution timed out.

How'd you install docker?

Using the docker run command from the docs for v1.4.13

Docker, not Appwrite

I copied the command from appwrite's docs

Here's the command, still have it in my history:

docker run -it --rm \
    --volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
    --volume "$(pwd)"/appwrite:/usr/src/code/appwrite:rw \
    --entrypoint="upgrade" \
    appwrite/appwrite:1.4.13

Btw what did you mean by host.docker.internal working for you? Did you set that as the _APP_DOMAIN_FUNCTIONS?
