Github action: uploading to coveralls fails since 2 December for version 1.9.1 with repo_token from env

[jberends]

My github action seem to start failing at or around the time of the update of coveralls from 1.8.2 to 1.9.1.

Per the docs (which are a bit wonky here and there, see #206 ) we expose a COVERALLS_REPO_TOKEN being stored as a secret in the repositorty secrets (settings > secrets). The github action workflow can be found here

This is the output of the last working example:

After the 2nd of december I get the following error across all branches.

coveralls debug results in

Successfully installed coveralls-1.9.1 docopt-0.6.2
Missing .coveralls.yml file. Using only env variables.
Testing coveralls-python...
{"source_files": [ ... ]
... more stuff ...
"config_file": ".coveragerc", "repo_token": "[secure]", "service_name": "github"}

It seems that the token is picket up correctly from the environment, but for some reason not used in the transfer to coveralls?

I also tested if github did change something to their secrets API or that github failed to expose the environment variables in the the shell, but those test pass successfully.

One remedy is to pin coveralls on 1.8.2 and that fixes the problem. Was there something changed in the coveralls package regarding github. I believe so when I look at the CHANGELOG

#autoresolve

In the mean time; a new release of coveralls was released to PyPI, while I was editing the issue and testing.

Pinning python-coveralls on version 1.9.2 fixes the problem
