With this change, we no longer depend on CircleCI to trigger the webhook (which it sometimes does with considerable delay or not at all). This has the added benefit that other jobs will not unnecessarily trigger webhooks and spam the preview server logs. It is only the `aio_preview` job's webhook that we care about. Related to #27352. PR Close #27458
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
