ci(workflows): hand values to the shell as data, not as script text
Three values reached `run:` blocks through `${{ }}`, so the runner pasted them
into the script before the shell ever saw it - which makes the value part of the
code rather than an argument to it.

- `BASE="${{ github.base_ref }}"` (build.yaml, lighthouse.yaml) - a ref name in
  the script.
- `echo ${{ secrets.SHEET_PWD }} | gpg --passphrase-fd 0` (all four workflows) -
  a passphrase in the script. A quote in it ends the quoting, and a command
  substitution in it runs.
- two `replace-in-files --replacement=...${{ secrets.CYPRESS_* }}...` lines
  (build.yaml, release.yaml) - the same, inside a replacement string.

Each now arrives as a step `env:` value and is expanded as `"$VAR"`, so the shell
only ever sees data. Checked the replacement lines side by side with the old form:
identical for an ordinary value, and the new form keeps a value containing a space
intact where the old one word-splits it, and survives a value containing a single
quote where the old one is a shell syntax error.

The passphrase pipe also moves from `echo` to `printf '%s\n'`, so the byte the
decryption sees does not depend on how the shell's `echo` treats backslashes.

Data Controller for SAS

Control your manual data modifications!

Alternatives to Data Controller include:

  • 💾 Developing / testing / deploying / scheduling overnight batch jobs to load files from shared drives
  • 🔒 Opening (and locking) datasets in Enterprise Guide or SAS® Table Viewer to perform direct updates
  • ❓ Asking a #DBA to run validated code after a change management process
  • 🌐 Building & maintaining your own custom web application
  • 🏃 Running #SAS or #SQL updates in production

Problems with the above include:

  • Legacy 'black box' solutions with little to no testing, documentation or support
  • End users requiring direct write access to critical data sources in production
  • Upload routines that must be manually modified when the data model changes
  • Breaches due to unnecessary parties having access to the data
  • Inability to trace who made a change, when, and why
  • Reliance on key individuals to perform updates
  • Building bespoke ETL for every new data source
  • High risk of manual error / data corruption

Data Controller for SAS® solves all these issues in a simple-to-install, user-friendly, secure, documented, battle-tested web application. Available on Viya, SAS 9 EBI, and SASjs Server.

An individual Viya deploy can be done in just 2 lines of #SAS code!

Development

Lighthouse CI

This project includes automated Lighthouse performance and accessibility checks that run on pull requests. The checks ensure:

  • Accessibility Score: Minimum 1.0 (100%) median score across all tested pages

The Lighthouse CI workflow:

  1. Sets up the development environment with SASjs server and mocked services
  2. Builds and serves the Angular frontend
  3. Installs Chrome and runs lhci autorun (Lighthouse CI) against key pages
  4. Uploads results as artifacts for review

To run Lighthouse checks locally:

cd client
npm install
npm run lighthouse

Configuration is in client/lighthouserc.js (URL list, desktop preset, Chrome flags, assertions).
