fix(action): correct input validation script behavior#307
Closed
Conversation
The input validation script was failing silently and incorrectly when exactly one authentication method was provided. This was due to the interaction between 'set -e' and the exit code of Bash arithmetic evaluation. The post-increment expression 'auth_methods++' evaluates to 0 when auth_methods is 0. In Bash, an arithmetic expression that evaluates to 0 returns an exit code of 1. With 'set -e' enabled, this non-zero exit code caused the script to exit as if an error had occurred. This commit changes the post-increment to a pre-increment '++auth_methods'. This ensures the expression always evaluates to a non-zero value (1, 2, or 3), resulting in a 0 exit code and preventing the script from failing. Additionally, the '-x' flag has been added to the 'set' command to enable xtrace, which will print commands as they are executed. This improves the debuggability of the script.
