George Kalpakas 19396769e2 ci: get rid of the CI_CHROMEDRIVER_VERSION_ARG env var (#35381)
Previously, we needed to manually specify a ChromeDriver version to
download on CI that would be compatible with the browser version
provided by the docker image used to run the tests. This was kept in the
`CI_CHROMEDRIVER_VERSION_ARG` environment variable.

With recent commits, we use the browser provided by `puppeteer` and can
determine the correct ChromeDriver version programmatically. Therefore,
we no longer need the `CI_CHROMEDRIVER_VERSION_ARG` environment
variable.

NOTE:
There is still one place (the `bazel-schematics` integration project)
where a hard-coded ChromeDriver version is necessary. Since I am not
sure what is the best way to refactor the tests to not rely on a
hard-coded version, I left it as a TODO for a follow-up PR.

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
