poetry config not working for HTTP auth so unable to pull private package

• I am on the latest Poetry version.
• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
• If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option).

• OS version and name:

debian:10 
root@91ca4e71776b:/# uname -a
Linux 91ca4e71776b 4.9.93-linuxkit-aufs #1 SMP Wed Jun 6 16:55:56 UTC 2018 x86_64 GNU/Linux

• Poetry version:

poetry --version
Poetry version 1.0.3

• Link of a Gist with the contents of your pyproject.toml file:

  
[tool.poetry]
name = "foo_bar"
version = "0.1.0"
description = ""
authors = ["Your Name <[e-mail]>"]

[tool.poetry.dependencies]
python = "^3.7"
private_package = "^1.0.13"


[tool.poetry.dev-dependencies]



[tool.poetry.scripts]


[[tool.poetry.source]]
name = "foo"
url = "https://foo.bar/simple"
default = true		

[build-system]
requires = ["poetry>=1.0.3"]
build-backend = "poetry.masonry.api"

Issue

$ poetry config repositories. foo https://foo.bar/simple
$ poetry config $USER_ID $USER_PASSWORD
$ poetry add private_package

[ValueError]
Could not find a matching version of package private_package

and I tried with env as well POETRY_HTTP_BASIC_FOO_USERNAME POETRY_HTTP_BASIC_FOO_PASSWORD but not working.

but poetry add private_package working after mounting config & password at ~/.config/pypoetry/auth.toml & ~/.config/pypoetry/config.toml

problem with mounting config is throwing user and password when error occurred while poetry install and I have to add default = true to [[tool.poetry.source]] to my pyproject.toml

When using a source with basic auth without configuring the credentials correctly, the source is silently seen as empty.

At https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry/blob/dcf30073d24c29b2d53932ba8599ff049f3f2bb8/poetry/repositories/legacy_repository.py#L365

there is only a check for 404. Meanwhile 401 is parsed, no content is found (it’s a you have to log in page) and an empty list is returned, resulting in a lock simply saying there is a solver problem and no valid version is found.

After some trial and error, I was able to get poetry to pick up the basic auth configuration and see dependencies. The main issue here is that there should be a check for 200 and if not, throw an exception.

There was an issue with the environment variables not being respected that is long fixed on 1.2.x – please open a new issue if you are setting the variables correctly and run into issues.
