Can we specify a Bit version to be used by Ripple CI / Bit Cloud?

[coreyaus]

Background

• The release of Bit version '1.6.73' is causing all Ripple CI build processes to fail for my existing React 18 environments
• I'll post a separate bug report about the error shortly
  • UPDATE: I have now posted a detailed bug report here: Latest Bit version 1.6.73 causes build failures in Ripple CI / Bit Cloud #8628
• In the meantime, I would love to just tell Ripple CI / Bit Cloud to use Bit version '1.6.62' because the build issue has only begun since the release of Bit version '1.6.73'
  • the error occurs even if I don't update my components - just running bit tag --unmodified and exporting the results throws a build error for me on the latest Bit version
  • the bit build process still succeeds when I running it locally with any Bit version

Question

Is there a way to tell Ripple CI / Bit Cloud to use a specific Bit version? (1.6.62 in my case)

---

I added the following config to my workspace.jsonc but it only seems to impact the local Bit configuration:

"teambit.harmony/bit": {
    "engine": "1.6.62",
    "engineStrict": true
},

hi, unfortunately no, it is not possible to set a different version for Ripple at the moment. for now we don't plan on supporting this feature, as we are working on removing more items from the "core" Bit, so you control more of the tools with just dependencies, thus eliminating most of the problem.

i am closing this feature request for now.
