How to detect whether AzDO extension is running in YAML pipeline or Classic pipeline?
I've been googling around for this, but can't find anything. Anyone knows a way to detect whether your extension is running in Classic vs YAML pipeline?
I'm working on an extension, which produces ANSI-colored output and apparently Classic pipeline logs UI can't deal with it, whereas YAML pipeline can. Instead of stripping colors completely I'm trying to find a way to be "smart" about it.
How to detect whether AzDO extension is running in YAML pipeline or Classic pipeline?
I am afraid there is no such a way to limit the custom extension running in YAML pipeline or Classic pipeline at this moment.
What we can do at the moment is to add a state in the description of the extension:
{
"id": "XXXX-A7C8-4A78-A7C3-8D717BB7C13C",
"name": "YourExtension",
"friendlyName": "Your Extension",
"description": "This extension can only be used in YAML pipeline.",
In my opinion this is a reasonable demand, so I suggest that you could add your request for this feature on our UserVoice site (https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/idea/post.html?space=21 ), which is our main forum for product suggestions. Thank you for helping us build a better Azure DevOps.
