Bitbucket pipe release v5.6.1 has a Semversioner error

[Geoffroy Labbe]

Hello!

I am using atlassian/bitbucket-pipe-release:5.6.1 and the pipeline fails with the following information:

✖ Semversioner error:

May I know if there is a way to see the actual error?  Perhaps I should have see something after the two dots?

Thank you.

@Geoffroy Labbe hi. Thanks for your question.
If you do not have VERSION variable, you should generate a semversioner file.
Check Release process paragraph, example:
generate changeset with command

semversioner add-change --type patch --description "Fix security vulnerability with authentication."

After that you will be able to release.
Regards, Igor

The error is due to semversioner not being able to find the VERSION variable in the pipe config.

You need to pass in the VERSION variable with a string. That worked for me.
