The README states:
Virtual environment
If you didn't do it yet, to be able to pip install Proton VPN components you'll need to set up our internal Python package registry. You can do so running the command below, after replacing
{GITLAB_TOKEN
} with your personal access token with the scope set toapi
.pip config set global.index-url https://__token__:{GITLAB_TOKEN}@{GITLAB_INSTANCE}/api/v4/groups/{GROUP_ID}/-/packages/pypi/simple
This makes the job of using running the app from the source code extremely difficult. Moreover, the README also doesn't mention what GitLab instance to use, which makes me think that the instance being used is https://gitlab.com/, a 3rd party service.
I bring this up as I would like an easy way to build/run the app from source without needing to clone a bunch of other repositories or authenticate with GitLab (which doesn't really make sense since the source is on GitHub and pip
can install packages from git)
