Alan Agius ca0fcd6c08 ci: only run publish_snapshot when not PR (#41877)
Currently, the non forked PRs such as Renovate will run `publish_snapshot` because `CIRCLE_PR_NUMBER` is not defined for PRs which are opened from non forked repos. Instead we add a filter to only run `publish_snapshot` on releasable branches.

Example of run were the mentioned variable is not defined https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/angular/angular/32093/workflows/7c8c4cfc-e6f6-44fc-a6dc-a82a6ac862db/jobs/976611

Encryption

Based on https://github.com/circleci/encrypted-files

In the CircleCI web UI, we have a secret variable called KEY https://circleci.com/gh/angular/angular/edit#env-vars which is only exposed to non-fork builds (see "Pass secrets to builds from forked pull requests" under https://circleci.com/gh/angular/angular/edit#advanced-settings)

We use this as a symmetric AES encryption key to encrypt tokens like a GitHub token that enables publishing snapshots.

To create the github_token file, we take this approach:

  • Find the angular-builds:token in the internal pw database
  • Go inside the CircleCI default docker image so you use the same version of openssl as we will at runtime: docker run --rm -it circleci/node:10.12
  • echo "https://[token]:@github.com" > credentials
  • openssl aes-256-cbc -e -in credentials -out .circleci/github_token -k $KEY
  • If needed, base64-encode the result so you can copy-paste it out of docker: base64 github_token
