Array value on Environment Variables for BitBucket Pipelines

[daviedR]

Hi,

Is it possible to set array value on Repository settings > Pipelines > Environment variables?

I tried:

(foo bar)

But doesn't work.

Environment variables can have any value, it depends upon how you use them in your scripts. in simple shell scripts you can set a variable to a sequence separated by spaces (the default, lookup the IFS shell variable: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_field_separator)  and then process them as a list, e.g.

F="a b c"
for i in ${F}
do
   echo $i
done 

When you set the variables value in pipelines, there is no need for the '"'s - only when you set it in the shell.
