[bug] conan download with optional user/channel does not work #6009
Comments
Reproduced. Yes, the workaround is to use the deprecated way: conan download zlib/1.2.11@ -p 76f87539fc90ff313e0b3182641a9bb558a717d2 I am going to check possible fixes |
Submitted a possible fix, maybe for 1.20 |
I ran into this same issue while trying to download the 7zip/19.00 package from conan-center. |
Can you please clarify exactly what command are you running, and the error message that you are getting? This was fixed and released, so it could be a regression or another bug, in that case it might be worth to create a new issue. Please tell the details and we will try to help. Thanks! Edit: Just in case, this works fine here: conan download 7zip/19.00@ -r=conan-center

I am also having this problem on Mac OS X with conan 1.34.0 michel@iMacGine ~ % conan download cgns/3.4.1 -r conan-center
ERROR: Provide a valid full reference without wildcards. @memsharded can you reproduce it? Or is it only on MacOS? |
$ conan download cgns/3.4.1@ -r conan-center You need the @, to mark this is a package reference, even if it doesn't have user/channel. This will be changed in Conan 2.0, but at the moment it was necessary to not break. |
With the @, it works. Thanks. But it's a lot of download. I'll try with just the recipe. |
Summary
Downloading Conan packages without user/channel (i.e.
zlib/1.2.11
instead ofzlib/1.2.11@conan/stable
) does not work. Such packages are built on CCI and it will be good to be able to download them for debugging.Environment Details (include every applicable attribute)
Steps to reproduce (Include if Applicable)
conan download 'zlib/1.2.11:76f87539fc90ff313e0b3182641a9bb558a717d2'
to download a package without explicit user/channelERROR: Provide a valid full reference without wildcards
Thoughts
The syntax for a short reference was given from Conan docs and from conan-center-index docs.
Anyway I tried following commands with the same error:
conan download 'zlib/1.2.11@_/_#76f87539fc90ff313e0b3182641a9bb558a717d2'
conan download 'zlib/1.2.11@/:76f87539fc90ff313e0b3182641a9bb558a717d2'
And this command with a different error "ERROR: Recipe not found: 'zlib/1.2.11'":
conan download 'zlib/1.2.11@#76f87539fc90ff313e0b3182641a9bb558a717d2'
It is curious that if Conan is run with
--package
argument, it suggests to use the exactly failed command:The same problem with upload command was fixed recently in #5822.
I suppose the
check_valid_ref
method should relax the requirements for short references..The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
