Migrate to ngrok v3 (potentially breaking change)

[bubenshchykov]

From ngrok PM:

I wanted to reach out and let you know about a few breaking changes that are coming for the ngrok agent v3 which will likely release next week. You can grab a copy of the ngrok agent v3 here to test with your code: https://dl.equinox.io/ngrok/ngrok-v3/stable

Installing the authtoken is now done with the command ngrok config add-authtoken TOKEN
The ngrok agent only accepts long name flags prefixed with -- and will error if a single hyphen is used. When updating your scripts, ensure things like --hostname and --host-header are using double hyphens.
The following command flags have changed:
-auth -> --basic-auth
-bind-tls -> --scheme
I have no idea if this breaks anything for you, but I wanted to let you know in case you wanted to get a head start on supporting the latest ngrok agent version. You can find a rough draft of a migration guide here (still polishing): https://ngrok.com/docs/guides/upgrade-v2-v3

Please let me know if you have any questions.

@philnash or other kind volunteers, can someone take a look please

I'll take a look this weekend. Doesn't seem too much of a problem.

Any updates on this? I recently got stuck with this problem, as I had installed ngrok 3 globally and authenticated with it, but when trying to connect with this library, it will always show I'm not authenticated. Turned out it is because ngrok2.4.0 used by this library looks for the .yml file in ~/.ngrok2 directory (which was not present as I installed ngrok3 which stores them on ~/appdata/local/ngrok directory.).

Apologies, I've been busy with work and travelling recently. There is a pull request open to fix some of the ngrok 3 things but I don't know whether it helps to handle that at all. Would you be able to try installing from that branch and see if it helps?

As I've mentioned in #272, ngrok 3 has a different download URL to ngrok 2.

This means that upgrading to ngrok 3 for this package should be a major version change which changes the URLs in download.js and also handles the new commands and new location of config files for ngrok 3.

Thanks for all your work here. It looks like the PR was merged so this can be closed?

[philnash]

The PR is merged, there's a beta version out on npm now (npm install ngrok@5.0.0-beta.2). I'll close this completely when a full version is released.

But check out the beta!
