At one point, I # started getting errors like this: # # Conversion from JSON failed with error: Unexpected character encountered while parsing value: W. # # They appeared out of nowhere, without any changes in the code. # Turns out, ConvertTo-Json is pretty much unusable by default. # See, it has a `-Depth` parameter, which has a default value of 2, # which is insanely low. I don't know what it does if the input # exceeds the nesting depth of 2, but I do know that starting from # Powershell 7.1, ConvertTo-Json prints a "helpful" warning in this # case. The warning looks like this: # # WARNING: Resulting JSON is truncated as serialization has exceeded the set depth of 2. # # Apparently, PowerShell on windows-2016 images got upgraded, hence # the failure to parse the letter W. I _accidentally_ fixed it by # adding "Select-Object Name,Value" to the pipeline, cutting the # nesting depth, so keeping that part in the pipeline is important. # # See also: # # * https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/8393 # * https://stackoverflow.com/q/53583677/514684 # * https://stackoverflow.com/q/53562942/514684 $json = $(& "${env:COMSPEC}" /s /c "`"$script_path`" -arch=$Arch -no_logo && pwsh -Command `"Get-ChildItem env: | Select-Object Name,Value | ConvertTo-Json`"") if ($LASTEXITCODE -ne 0) { throw $json } else { try { $json | ConvertFrom-Json | %{ Set-Content "env:$($_.Name)" $_.Value } } catch { echo 'There was a problem with the following JSON:' echo $json throw } } } if ('${{ runner.os }}' -ne 'Windows') { echo 'Not going to set up a Visual Studio shell on ${{ runner.os }}' } else { $old_values = @{} Get-ChildItem env: | %{ $old_values.Add($_.Name, $_.Value) } $info = Locate-VS try { Import-PS $info $arch } catch { echo $_ Import-CMD $info $arch } $new_values = @{} Get-ChildItem env: | %{ $new_values.Add($_.Name, $_.Value) } # Some diagnostics as to which exact variables were modified follows: echo '----------------------------------------------------------------' echo 'New variables' echo '----------------------------------------------------------------' $new_values.GetEnumerator() | where { -not $old_values.ContainsKey($_.Name) } | Format-List echo '----------------------------------------------------------------' echo 'Modified variables' echo '----------------------------------------------------------------' $new_values.GetEnumerator() | where { $old_values.ContainsKey($_.Name) -and $old_values[$_.Name] -ne $_.Value } | Format-List # Update the current environment: Get-ChildItem env: | %{ echo "$($_.Name)=$($_.Value)" >> $env:GITHUB_ENV } } shell: pwsh branding: icon: star color: green
