This commit adds a `UserError` class that should be thrown when the
cause of an error is fundamentally from user configuration.
When sending status reports, avoid sending a `failure` for `UserError`s.
This will prevent our diagnostics from pinging us for errors outside of
our control.
Some platforms that ingest this status report charge based on the
cardinality of the fields, so here we restrict the version strings we
support to a fixed set.
Turboscan only allows a single combination of tool name and automation
details id for testing category uniqueness.
Previously, the check in the action was not entirely correct since it
only looked at the _category_ and not the combination of the category
and the tool name.
It's even more precise now since it is looking at the actual, computed
value of the automation details id, rather than an inputted value of
the category.
This change also includes a refactoring where the action is now avoiding
multiple parsing/stringifying of the sarif files. Instead, sarif is
parsed once at the start of the process and stringified once, after
sarif processing is completely finished.
4.4.2 introduces a breaking change that the variable in a catch clause
is now `unknown` type. So, we need to cast the `e`, `err`, or `error`
variables to type `Error`.
This is a functionality that never worked perfectly and hasn't been
used for a while.
This allows developers to run the action on their local machine, but
the run was always flaky and never 100% mirrored what was happening on
the actions runner.
This PR ensures environment variables are set before any invocation of
the CLI. Here is a list of vars that are set:
https://github.com/github/codeql-coreql-team/issues/1124#issuecomment-852463521
This ensures the CLI knows the features and versions of the containing
actions/runner.
Additionally:
- Fix the user agent so that it more closely aligns with user agent
spec
- Refactor environment variable initialization so that it all happens in
one place and call.
- Move Mode, getRequiredEnvParam, setMode, getMode out of actions-util
and into util. actions-util is meant for utils only called by the
action, not the runner.
The `prepareLocalRunEnvironment()` method is most likely deprecated and
should be removed. I originally added it because I had a way of working
where I would run the action from my local machine to test out changes,
but this was always a little flaky. So, I no longer use this way of
working. I will probably remove it soon.
This commit changes the way the action determines if running in action
or runner mode. There is now an environment variable that is set at the
beginning of the process and elsewhere in the process, we can check to
see if the variable is set.
Fixes a bug where we were looking for incorrect keys for metrics rules.
Previously, we were using full language names in the keys. Now, we use
the short language names in the metric ids. This is done through a
simplification of the code.
Also, this change does two smaller things:
1. Prints out the baseline count to the logs
2. Adds the `assertNever` function to ensure we never miss a case in
a switch statement. This function is borrowed from vscode-codeql.
Mitigation for OOM errors (137/SIGKILL) seen by users when we overcommit the available memory.
For Unix, reserve 1GB.
For Windows, reserve 1.5GB, as the OS needs more memory and estimates inaccurately.
This commit adds two new ways of specifying GitHub auth:
1. from the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable
2. from standard input
This commit does not include any documentation changes and the
descriptions of new command line options will need to be tweaked.
