Are we going to run into any issues using these? Probably not -- just checking since ember apps are compiled by the consuming app

Ember uses the version of ember-cli-babel
defined in the app's/addon's package dependencies to compile. If we wanted to move that dep to be a devDep, we would then need to remove the Node 14 features.
What is this?
There is a new kid on the block,
@percy/cli
, that takes what@percy/agent
has done and makes it more robust, more modular, more extensible, and more feature-rich than@percy/agent
can ever be in its current state. This PR brings@percy/cli
to this SDK by refactoring the entire SDK from the ground up, including new tests, new CI config, and other niceties. The new@percy/cli
has many benefits over@percy/agent
, so I won't list all of them here. But importantly, there are a few necessary breaking changes.Breaking Changes
@percy/agent
is no longer a dependency, obviously, but neither is@percy/cli
. This enables users to install the SDK as a development dependency without requiring the entire SDK umbrella on install (including a lengthy chromium download). When usingnpx
, users will have to usenpx @percy/cli ...
rather thannpx percy
, as the latter refers to@percy/agent
and has gaps in its version history that would prevent some future releases.To enable normal package script behavior with
percy <command>
, users will have to install the CLI alongside the SDK –npm install @percy/cli @percy/ember
. The new CLI does not download Chromium on install, and instead does so the first time asset discovery is started. So even when choosing to install the CLI as a development dependency, it has a much smaller footprint than its predecessor.The format of Percy configuration files has changed. Common options can be viewed in the
@percy/core
package, and previous configuration options can be migrated to the new format usingpercy config:migrate
.There are no breaking changes within the SDK itself
Repo Changes:
The Ember addon was freshly recreated, removing outdated files and configs while updating others. Some empty directories with
.gitkeep
s were also removed as they are not needed nor will they be.Tests were re-written to be functional. The previous tests were visual only and in reality were testing the behavior of
@percy/agent
using the SDK rather than testing the SDK itself. Coverage reporting has also been added and is a requirement for tests to pass to have complete coverage.GitHub Actions are now the default CI and other CIs do not need to be tested within since this repo should be testing the SDK and not CI integrations. Separate workflows exist for linting and tests so their failures can be reported separately (rather than having tests be cancelled due to failed linting).
The changelog and release processes have also been updated to fully utilize GitHub features such as tags and releases. The semantic release bot and several semantic release packages were replaced with release-drafter which utilizes PRs and labels to create changelogs found alongside each release on the releases page.
Automatic package releasing is now a semi-manual process due to bots not always being able to correctly guess the proper version number and sometimes releasing the incorrect version. To release, the version number should be bumped appropriately and then the automatically created draft release can be published from the releases page. In the future, we can automate the version bump to reflect the release version to make this process smoother, while still requiring a human to approve the release.
Honorable Mention:
We no longer need to hardcode the SDK version for snapshot client information. Just as Ember makes its version available via virtual modules, we can do the same within the
index.js
file. Rather than a dedicated@percy/ember/version
, I opted to go with@percy/ember/meta
and also make relevant environment information available in the same manner (bikeshed on filename?@percy/ember/[meta|env|info]
?).Todo:
