Hello,
I've been trying to create reusable steps to reduce lines on my pipeline.yaml, but I've been encountering this error: Property name is not allowed.yaml-schema: Pipeline Items.
Specifically, I encounter the error if I attempt to override some values (e.g., name).
Here's how it would look
image: atlassian/default-image:3
definitions:
steps:
- step: &reuse-no-error
name: Reusable step
script:
- echo "Hello World"
- step: &reuse-has-error
name: Reusable step # Property script is not allowed.yaml-schema: Pipeline Items
script: # Property script is not allowed.yaml-schema: Pipeline Items
- echo "Hello World"
pipelines:
branches:
test:
- step: *reuse-no-error
- step: # happens even if I replace this "- step:" with "- <<:" directly
<<: *reuse-has-error
name: Change name
According to the validator (https://bitbucket.org/product/pipelines/validator), this is valid.
Edit: To add, I've committed the change but was told by bitbucket that there was an error in the pipelines.branches.test.0 as well. I'll try to replicate the issue and update this post shortly.
Edit2: The above yaml file causes the error: There is an error in your bitbucket-pipelines.yml at [pipelines > branches > test > 1]. Step is empty, null, or missing.
RESOLVED: Apologies, the references I was following had misaligned the step and << lines. After adding an indent to the << line, things worked as expected.
Cheers,
Kevin
