impl: add support for disabling CLI signature verification#166
Merged
Conversation
These options are configurable from the Settings page, there is no available shortcut on the main plugin page to discourage the quick disable of CLI verification
The main plugin screen has a quick shortcut for setting whether the user wants to fallback on releases.coder.com for signatures if they are not provided by the main deployment. This checkbox should not be visible if the user wants to disable signature verification altogether. To make things more consistent with Coder Gateway, the fallback setting is always displayed if signature verification is enabled, we no longer display it only once in the main page.
Signature validation is skipped if the user configured the `disableSignatureVerification` to true.

This PR implements a new configurable option to allow users to disable GPG signature verification for downloaded Coder CLI binaries. This feature provides flexibility for environments where signature verification may not be required or where fallback signature sources are not accessible.
A new option
disableSignatureVerificationis now available only from the Settings page, with no quick shortcut in the main page to discourage users from quickly disabling this option. ThefallbackOnCoderForSignaturesis hidden/not available for configuration once signature verification is disabled.Additionally a rough draft for developer facing documentation regarding CLI signature verification was added.
To make things more consistent with Coder Gateway, the fallback setting is always displayed if signature verification is enabled, we no longer display it only once in the main page.
This PR is a port of coder/jetbrains-coder#564 from Coder Gateway.
