The publish_snapshots job is currently not able to decode the Github token because the openssl version changed. This is because the default digest for more recent openssl version has been updated and the github token file has been encrypted with an old digest. We need to ensure that the md5 digest is used for decryption as that matches the digest used for encryption. PR Close #31099
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 http://valentine
- 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
