STM32CubeIDE signing in through the browser on linux does not work.

[ayhamxyz]

Hello,

The browser window opens, it is not resizable and it lags and does not take any user input. I have to spam the accept cookies button, and then I can't get the text boxes to focus.

 

Is there any way to sign in through the CLI/using an external browser?

 

STM32CubeIDE suggests on its stdout to use the 'login' command, however where should I enter it?

Hi,

I have Mx Linux and STM IDE 1.18. running fine so far. Also login is working.

I left it at its standard settings, using system browser, Chrome in my system actually.

On which system and browser you work?

 

+

login is in menu: help -> stm32CubeUpdates -> connection to myST

You have to login, before download/update HAL libs   etc.

Hey,

 

I run Archlinux with the latest software, so latest webkit, chromium.

 

I currently get by, through manually downloading the firmware. (there is another bug which makes downloading patches not work because it doesn't detect that the non-patched version is already installed)

 

I noticed that the browser page keeps requesting focus, the animations flicker as if they request focus, chromium browsers like brave seem to also 'twitch' their buttons as if the mouse is moving sporadically.

 

It would be way easier if STM32CubeIDE had either a way of entering your username/password as normal ui textboxes or just using external authorization (what github cli does for example)

I randomly tried logging in to the IDE when I was logged into my workstation over VNC, and it worked.

 

Turns out the STM32CubeIDE_wayland did not truly support wayland, as on swaywm the login screen doesn't work, but running it over VNC, which is X11 based, the account login works. I am guess it has something to do with the fact that the login browser is repeatedly requesting to be on top of other windows. (way to go for having anti-features)
