Offline generation

[sj14]

Hi,

based on the tour, I've cloned the repository and wanted to generate the proto files without internet access. Unfortunately, this fails. Is this possible somehow, e.g. by vendoring the dependencies?

Reproduce

Clone tour repo:

➜ git clone https://github.com/bufbuild/buf-tour
➜ cd buf-tour/finish/getting-started-with-buf-cli

Go offline and run:

➜ buf generate proto
Failure: the server hosted at that remote is unavailable. Are you sure "buf.build" is a valid remote address?

Nevermind, I think I found the answer. You can set a path to the locally installed tool https://buf.build/docs/configuration/v1/buf-gen-yaml#path.
