How can i set environment variables for all steps in one branch

Medin

I want to achieve this goal, 
When i push to dev branch i want all steps to execute with Test environment variables using Pipeline Deployments

 

image: node:11.13.0-alpine

definitions: 
steps:
- step: &build
name: Build
script:
- echo $AWS_STAGE
- step: &deploy
name: Deploy
script:
- echo $AWS_STAGE

pipelines:
branches:
release/dev:
- step: 
<<: *build
deployment: test
- step: 
<<: *deploy
deployment: test

I have Deployments setup correctly and its printing correct variables if i have deployments in only one step 

Above YAML is valid by https://bitbucket-pipelines.prod.public.atl-paas.net/validator
But throws an error when pipeline is runing

Looks like the problem is to have two times the deployment environment "test" in the same pipeline.

Bitbucket Pipelines refuses that and gives the error message.

Normally the deployment should be given on the step that deploys the (previous) build artifacts.

From what I can read in your question that would be the second step about deploying.

You can transfer artifacts from the first build step to the second deploy step by making use of the artifacts entry (see Using artifacts in steps) which should prevent the error.

So in short: It's possible to have multiple steps with deployments in the same pipeline but each deployment must have a different deployment environment (also sometimes named as deployment target).

E.g. first deploy to test, then deploy to production.

Artifacts are stored for 14 days, so if the deployment to production is a manual step, you have 14 days time to press the deploy button for production if the production deployment is a manual step.

If you could share a bit more how come to have the same deployment environment two times in the same pipeline, it's perhaps easier to figure out a more concrete suggestion.
