This adds a test (which currently only runs automatically in CI) which installs the uiautomator2 driver. This will ensure that driver installation does not only work in a dev environment!
Due to needing to support Windows and not wishing to befoul the default `APPIUM_HOME`, we need `cross-env` as a production dependency (otherwise the smoke test would fail) to set a temporary `APPIUM_HOME` (`local_appium_home`) which is relative to the temp dir used by the smoke test (see https://github.com/boneskull/nodejs-production-test-action)
Also fix duplication of error messages about engines.
Unfortunately this adds another startup delay, but I'm unsure of a better way around it. I guess bundling our own npm might work!
Resolves#17250
This change passes any extra unknown arguments to extension scripts _if and only if_ `appium <extension> <name> run` is executed. In all other cases, unknown arguments result in an error and the `appium` CLI will abort as before.
Example:
```bash
appium driver fake run fake-success --foo --bar`
```
In the `fake-success` script of the `fake` driver, `process.argv.slice(2)` will be `['--foo', '--bar']`. Extra arguments can appear anywhere after the `appium` executable in the command and do not need to appear after the script name.
- In addition, added some missing arguments for extension subcommands to the types (`json`, `suppressOutput`). Extra arguments are stored in property `extraArgs`.
- Fixed a type problem surfaced by the previous item
- Changed help text for the `run` subcommand to hopefully read more clearly
- Reorganized E2E tests for the `run` subcommand
- Slightly changed error output when unknown argument is provided (given that we now need to DIY this)
This removes the symlink we were creating to avoid an extra install of `appium` in `APPIUM_HOME`. Using a symlink obviously breaks stuff, because (for whatever reason) `npm` wants to run lthe `prepare` lifecycle script in the symlinked `appium`, which will not work outside of a dev environment due to missing dev depenencies.
Because npm v7+'s behavior is to install peer dependencies automatically, this will cause `appium` to be installed alongside any extensions in `APPIUM_HOME`. Each extension will have its own `appium`. This may just be the price we have to pay for using `APPIUM_HOME`, or there may be another solution to avoid the extra install (I'm not sure what it is). I think it _also_ exposes us to future bugs where the running Appium differs from whatever the peer dependency is set to... which sort of defeats the purpose of peer dependencies. Either way, the user will get a warning if the currently-running Appium is too new for an extension.
- `@appium/test-support` now exports the e2e setup for plugins, and e2e/unit suites for drivers from base-driver. it also generates declarations.
- `appium` exports this as `appium/test`.
- The `capability.spec.js` unit test for basedriver now avoids spying on the "global" logger, due to test flake. It now spies directly on the function which calls the global logger. (@mykola_mokhnach)
- removed homebrew ansi-stripping code from `test-support` and replaced with `@colors/colors`
- type fixes and refactors for `@appium/test-support`
- type fixes for `appium`
- simplify `lib/index.js` of `@appium/base-driver`
This can happen if someone does something like `npm install --no-save appium`, _or_ if npm changes its shrinkwrap behavior for reasons that cause `appium` to be installed in `$APPIUM_HOME/node_modules` _(cough)_
Ref: #17073
this change uses --legacy-peer-deps for newer versions of npm to
avoid installation of appium when installing extensions in ~/.appium. this does not work if the extension contains a shrinkwrap with appium in it, though.
in that case, an extra copy of appium will always be installed.
it creates a symlink, e.g., ~/.appium/node_modules/appium to the currently-running appium, wherever that is. could not abuse NODE_PATH to do this.
this is rather naive and does not check that the symlink is actually the same as the running appium if it already exists. that might cause some weird problems with multiple installs of appium on the same machine, but if it does, we can fix them as they arise.
