George Kalpakas 3efdd39a18 ci(docs-infra): use the tests from the stable branch in aio_monitoring_stable CircleCI job (#30110)
Previously, the `aio_monitoring_stable` job (which runs tests against
https://angular.io/) was using the tests from the master branch. As a
result, if the master branch included changes in those tests that were
not yet backported to the stable branch (and thus deployed to
https://angular.io/), the tests would fail.

This commit fixes this by using the tests from the stable branch to test
against https://angular.io/.

Fixes #30101

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
