Greptile Overview
Summary
This PR upgrades the `actions/setup-node` GitHub Action from version 4 to version 5 across all CI/CD workflow files in the Fides repository. This is a routine dependency maintenance update generated by Dependabot to keep the CI infrastructure current.The upgrade brings several significant improvements to the build pipeline:
Automatic Package Manager Caching: The most notable enhancement is automatic caching when a valid packageManager field is present in package.json. This feature will automatically detect and cache npm dependencies, which should improve build performance across the Fides frontend applications (admin-ui, privacy-center, and various test suites).
Security Updates: The v5 release includes critical security fixes, particularly for the form-data dependency, along with updates to other dependencies like uuid, undici, and @actions/github.
Runtime Upgrade: The action itself now runs on Node.js 24, though this doesn't affect the Node.js version used in the actual builds (which remains 20.x as specified in the workflows).
Integration with Fides Architecture: This change fits seamlessly into the Fides codebase structure, which includes multiple frontend applications in the /clients directory. Each application has its own package.json file, and the automatic caching feature should provide performance benefits across all these builds. The workflows affected include Cypress end-to-end tests, admin UI tests, privacy center tests, frontend linting/checks, and package publishing - all critical parts of the Fides development and release process.
The upgrade maintains full backward compatibility with existing workflow configurations while adding these performance and security enhancements.
