sauce connect 5.0 incompatibility #222

Open cgonzalescdm opened 10 months ago

cgonzalescdm commented 10 months ago

We received word that Sauce Connect 5.0 is released.

‘sauce-connect-launcher’ uses https://saucelabs.com/versions.json to check for the latest version of sauce connect to download and use. Currently that versions.json still shows 4.9.2 as the latest, so tests using that plugin still work fine. However, if sauce connect 5 becomes listed in versions.json, then the steps to download will break since the architecture, filetype, and path are different, and the steps to run the sauce connect file will break due to the different folder structure in sauce connect 5.

Example paths if downloading windows x86 Sauce Connect 5.0 : https://saucelabs.com/downloads/sauce-connect/5.0.0/sauce-connect-5.0.0_windows.x86_64.zip Sauce Connect 4: https://saucelabs.com/downloads/sc-4.9.2-win32.zip

Example folder structure in the windows x86 and win32 zips to get to sc.exe: Sauce Connect 5.0 (no longer in directories): sc.exe Sauce Connect 4: sc-4.9.2-win32\bin\sc.exe

Please make an update to be able to handle running Sauce Connect 5.0

Hi, I'm with the Sauce Connect team, and we were asked this question a lot. We published a migration guide but the first version focuses more on CLI changes (SC's major release introduced quite a few CLI changes, not only the download link changed).

In the meantime, we decided not to update https://saucelabs.com/versions.json with sc5 to avoid breaking external libraries such as this one, so no rush, the library will work as is, for the next few months (till Dec 31). We'll update the migration guide soon with the details on version management including how to check for updates.

Hi @waggledans , hope you're well. I was wondering whether you have any updates on the timeline when sauce-connect v5 will be available since the the support for v4 is ending on the 31st of December.

@mknish I reached out to the team. They are in the process of releasing an updated Jenkins plugin, this one is next. The EOS date shouldn't be an issue for the existing users but I asked to clarify it.
