auth keeps defaulting to non-existent project

[inimaz]

Description

Hello team!

I had a project called codecarbon that I have deleted.

And a file that contains just metric_gauges so it is using the default logfire instance.
Content of the file:

from logfire import metric_gauge
duration_gauge = metric_gauge(
    "codecarbon_duration", unit="(s)", description="Duration from last measure"
)

duration.set(data.duration)
...

The problem is, when I run this file, it keeps connecting to the old project that I have already deleted

inimaz:~/$  python logfire_metrics.py

Logfire project URL: https://logfire.pydantic.dev/inimaz/codecarbon              <==================
...

And I cannot see the metrics in any existing project.

I have tried removing the token in .logfire/default.toml and rerunning logfire auth, but I still see that it points to the deleted project. Is this normal?

Thanks a lot!

~/.logfire/default.toml contains credentials associated with your user (produced by logfire auth), not associated with a specific project.

The project credentials are stored in .logfire/logfire_credentials.json where this .logfire is now a local folder stored in the current working directory of the Python process using logfire, rather than the home folder. Delete that.

We're considering changing this so that all the data (for potentially multiple projects) is stored in the global folder (cc @samuelcolvin @Kludex) which might have helped make this a bit less confusing depending on the implementation.

Ah perfect thanks! It works now.
Maybe it is enough to mention it in the logs. When I do logfire auth I get the following log:

Your Logfire credentials are stored in ~/.logfire/default.toml

Something similar could be done when a new project is chosen?

The Logfire project credentials are stored in ~/YOUR_LOCAL_PROJECT/.logfire/logfire_credentials.json
