Environment variables

Woodpecker provides the ability to pass environment variables to individual pipeline steps. Note that these can't overwrite any existing, built-in variables. Example pipeline step with custom environment variables:

 steps:
   - name: build
     image: golang
+    environment:
+      CGO: 0
+      GOOS: linux
+      GOARCH: amd64
     commands:
       - go build
       - go test

Please note that the environment section is not able to expand environment variables. If you need to expand variables they should be exported in the commands section.

 steps:
   - name: build
     image: golang
-    environment:
-      - PATH=$PATH:/go
     commands:
+      - export PATH=$PATH:/go
       - go build
       - go test

:::warning ${variable} expressions are subject to pre-processing. If you do not want the pre-processor to evaluate your expression it must be escaped: :::

 steps:
   - name: build
     image: golang
     commands:
-      - export PATH=${PATH}:/go
+      - export PATH=$${PATH}:/go
       - go build
       - go test

Built-in environment variables

This is the reference list of all environment variables available to your pipeline containers. These are injected into your pipeline step and plugins containers, at runtime.

Global environment variables

If you want specific environment variables to be available in all of your pipelines use the WOODPECKER_ENVIRONMENT setting on the Woodpecker server. Note that these can't overwrite any existing, built-in variables.

WOODPECKER_ENVIRONMENT=first_var:value1,second_var:value2

These can be used, for example, to manage the image tag used by multiple projects.

WOODPECKER_ENVIRONMENT=GOLANG_VERSION:1.18
 steps:
   - name: build
-    image: golang:1.18
+    image: golang:${GOLANG_VERSION}
     commands:
       - [...]

String Substitution

Woodpecker provides the ability to substitute environment variables at runtime. This gives us the ability to use dynamic settings, commands and filters in our pipeline configuration.

Example commit substitution:

 steps:
   - name: docker
     image: plugins/docker
     settings:
+      tags: ${CI_COMMIT_SHA}

Example tag substitution:

 steps:
   - name: docker
     image: plugins/docker
     settings:
+      tags: ${CI_COMMIT_TAG}

String Operations

Woodpecker also emulates bash string operations. This gives us the ability to manipulate the strings prior to substitution. Example use cases might include substring and stripping prefix or suffix values.

OPERATION DESCRIPTION
${param} parameter substitution
${param,} parameter substitution with lowercase first char
${param,,} parameter substitution with lowercase
${param^} parameter substitution with uppercase first char
${param^^} parameter substitution with uppercase
${param:pos} parameter substitution with substring
${param:pos:len} parameter substitution with substring and length
${param=default} parameter substitution with default
${param##prefix} parameter substitution with prefix removal
${param%%suffix} parameter substitution with suffix removal
${param/old/new} parameter substitution with find and replace

Example variable substitution with substring:

 steps:
   - name: docker
     image: plugins/docker
     settings:
+      tags: ${CI_COMMIT_SHA:0:8}

Example variable substitution strips v prefix from v.1.0.0:

 steps:
   - name: docker
     image: plugins/docker
     settings:
+      tags: ${CI_COMMIT_TAG##v}
