Is there a mirror we chinese could use?

[taoqf]

• I'd be willing to implement this feature
• This feature can already be implemented through a plugin

Describe the user story

The network is blocked in our country, when we run yarn set version berry there will be an net error because the domain https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yarnpkg/berry/master/packages/berry-cli/bin/berry.js is blocked. this is the error

Resolving berry to a url...
Downloading https://github.com/yarnpkg/berry/raw/master/packages/berry-cli/bin/berry.js...
error An unexpected error occurred: "https://github.com/yarnpkg/berry/raw/master/packages/berry-cli/bin/berry.js: connect ECONNREFUSED 151.101.228.133:443".
info If you think this is a bug, please open a bug report with the information provided in "/home/taoqf/myproj/yarn-error.log".

Describe the solution you'd like

Maybe we can use an mirror options to change the url to https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/yarnpkg/berry/packages/berry-cli/bin/berry.js or other url , or even a local file.

if you are behind a proxy, use it. for instance, in your .bashrc/anyrc file, prepend "export http_proxy=[your proxy]" will do. Or maybe you can try yarn config set proxy/https-proxy before yarn set version berry. You know what a proxy means I assume 🐶

[nyaapass]

it can be solved by setting up a proxy:

[John0King]

maybe just install it globally with npm install -g yarn ?

[arcanis]

I'm in the process of setting up a light proxy so that future yarn set version calls will hit yarnpkg.com rather than the GitHub servers.

@arcanis I'm still think use npm directly is a much simpler solution.
a) have you count the project in github that use yarn2 insteal of yarn 1 ?
b) does thoese project want to use yarn2 ?
c) does any feature in yarn1 is not supported in yarn2

if the anser is
a) most project use yarn1
b) they want to use yarn2
c) no or only a few feature that not very commonly used.

then I want just to install latest yarn by npm insatll -g yarn

and infact , to use locale version of yarn(any npm packge) is possible :

{
 "scripts":{
       "yarn" : "./node_modules/yarn/yarn.cmd || ./node_modules/yarn/yarn.sh",
        "tsc" :"./node_modueles/typescript/tsc.cmd",
       "build": "yarn run yarn  run  tsc" 
        // here we make the latest yarn to detect the `yarn` script , and use that directly without the `yarn run yarn` prefix 
   }

}

or even better, directly detect the yarn package in devDependencies section of package.json

[John0King]

and please at least to make a discussion in your team

[arcanis]

New versions will use the Yarn website as source for the binaries (specifically, repo.yarnpkg.com).

@arcanis when support it

[uwang]

use yarn@1 for no other way
