This doesn't apply globally within the fleet project because some portions use yarn which #45267 will take care of however this does add it to our CI jobs and the .npmrc files for projects that use npm I was going to set this as NPM_CONFIG_MIN_RELEASE_AGE in a github EV but that won't automatically set it on every runner so leaving it in here for now As far as QA local builds and CI are both green. Tested NPM_CONFIG_MIN_RELEASE_AGE=0.5 and min-release-age=0.5(in npmrc) locally using the npm package feed https://registry.npmjs.org/-/rss to verify that recently updated packages either chose an older version OR the update was blocked if I tried to choose a newer one # Checklist for submitter ## Testing - [x] QA'd all new/changed functionality manually <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Chores** * Enhanced npm supply-chain security by implementing package installation policies across build workflows and configuration files to exclude packages released within the last 12 hours. <!-- review_stack_entry_start --> [](https://app.coderabbit.ai/change-stack/fleetdm/fleet/pull/45268) <!-- review_stack_entry_end --> <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->
Github Actions
Fleet uses Github Actions for continuous integration (CI). This document describes best practices and at patterns for writing and maintaining Fleet's Github Actions workflows.
Bash
By default, Github Actions sets the shell to bash -e for linux and MacOS runners. To help write
safer bash scripts in run jobs and avoid common issues, override the default by adding the following
to the workflow file
defaults:
run:
# fail-fast using bash -eo pipefail. See https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#exit-codes-and-error-action-preference
shell: bash
By specifying the default shell to bash, some extra flags are set. The option pipefail changes
the behaviour when using the pipe | operator such that if any command in a pipeline fails, that
commands return code will be used a the return code for the whole pipeline. Consider the following
example in test-go.yaml
- name: Run Go Tests
run: |
# omitted ...
make test-go 2>&1 | tee /tmp/gotest.log
If the pipefail option was not set, this job would always succeed because tee would always
return success. This is not the intended behavior. Instead, we want the job to fail if make test-go fails.
Concurrency
Github Action runners are limited. If a lot of workflows are queued, they will wait in pending until a runner becomes available. This has caused issue in the past where workflows take an excessively long time to start. To help with this issue, use the following in workflows
# This allows a subsequently queued workflow run to interrupt previous runs
concurrency:
group: ${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.head_ref || github.run_id}}
cancel-in-progress: true
When a workflow is triggered via a pull request, it will cancel previous running workflows for that
pull request. This is especially useful when changes are pushed to a pull request frequently.
Manually triggered workflows, workflows that run on a schedule, and workflows triggered by pushes to
main are unaffected.
