bitbucket pipelines variables in line

Question

It is possible to declare variables inside the pipeline file, as in this GitHub example:

# ...

env:
  NODE_VERSION: 16.3.1
  FOLDER_PATH: Project


# ...

    steps:
      - name: Move to project folder
        run: cd $FOLDER_PATH

# ...

Is it possible to do something similar in the bitbucket pipeline files? (How?)

Thanks any help : )

Answer 1

No.

There is a feature request for that https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BCLOUD-17453 .

Still "gathering interest" though.

The nearest approximation is to write a YAML anchor that exports those vars and use it in every step.

definitions:
  yaml-anchors:
    - &setenv-script >-
        export NODE_VERSION=16.3.1
        && export FOLDER_PATH=Project

pipelines:
  default:
    - step:
        script:
          - *setenv-script
          - ...
    - step:
        script:
          - *setenv-script
          - ...
