bitbucket-pipelines.yml on different branches

[Deleted user]

Is it possible to run bitbucket-pipelines.yml  on custom branch? E.g. for testing I dont want to push onto master, but would like to prepare configuration on new branch and then merge.

Hi, thanks for the answer. But still I guess you have to push this yaml to master branch and pipelines will use it for building other branches?

Current solution is pushing yaml to selected branch with default steps and executing it via right menu on page with all the branches.

You can set the yaml file to provide different actions on each branch, I've pasted the example from the documentation below

image: node:4.6.0
  
pipelines:
  default:
    - step:
        name: Build and test
        script:
          - npm install
          - npm test
  tags:                         # add the 'tags' section
    release-*:                  # specify the tag
      - step:                   # define the build pipeline for the tag
          name: Build and release
          script:
            - npm install
            - npm test
            - npm run release
  branches:
    staging:
      - step:
          name: Clone
          script:
            - echo "Clone all the things!"
