Share pipeline between different repositories

Xinchao Zhang

I am wondering if there is a way to share bitbucket-pipeline.yml between different repositories? Or maybe define a pipeline at project/group level so it can be shared with all the repositories beneath?

We have a multi-repo setup where all repositories follow the same SDLC. Hence the bitbucket-pipeline.yml of each repository are all identical. Whenever we want to change something we have to change all places, it starts to become a pain.

 

Thanks

Hi Xinchao,

Bitbucket Pipelines currently provides no support for sharing bitbucket-pipelines.yml configuration across multiple repositories.

We have a feature we're speccing that will allow for sharing scripts across repositories. You can follow it here: https://bitbucket.org/site/master/issues/17181/allow-users-to-define-tasks-step

We have another feature requests that allows for sharing the bitbucket-pipelines.yml file across repositories: https://bitbucket.org/site/master/issues/14078/sharing-pipeline-yml-files

We currently have no plans to support sharing the entirely yaml configuration across repositories. But, hopefully the shared scripts feature will help with your use-case.

Thanks,

Phil
