Official Allure Plugin for Azure DevOps without downloading directly from github.com

[mhanxchu]

I am integrating the official plugin for azure devops pipeline to display it in the pipeline run tab. Currently I am using a selfhosted build agent which is installed in a linux Azure VM. The plugin could find allure test results but there are firewalls issue when the plugin trying to download source from github.com. Are there alternatives to that? Can I manually download the source and make the plugin use that instead or some internal artifactory platform, because I would like to keep the deps internally.

I think, it's possible to provide the ability to do that 👍

Published a new version (1.3.0) which supports configuring custom allure report download path.

To download the report from a custom url add allureDownloadUrl (default value is https://github.com/allure-framework/allure2/releases/download/{{allureVersion}}/allure-{{allureVersion}}.tgz, where allureVersion will be replaced by allureVersion input value).

Please keep in mind, that the file should be a .tar archive!

@epszaw Thanks a lot for the fast support! So I just need to specify e.g. the artifactory url path where the tgz file is kept right? How does the download work, as for Artifactory, I need to provide credentials to access that.

I tried to test it with putting the tar archive file in our Azure Repo and put an url to that as allureDownloadUrl but I received the following error

Error: Unexpected HTTP response: 203

What does this mean?

[epszaw]

It means that we need to provide some authentication data to the request. Would it be possible to configure artifactory to respond all the requests from azure host without username/password pair?

The latest version (1.4.0) of the plugin now includes a bundled Allure Commandline. To use the bundled version, you can omit the version from the configuration.
