Errors when running multi-line inline "if" command

  • Updated

Overview

You are attempting to run a multi-line inline "if" command, but it is not processing correctly.

Details

Multiline formatting must follow specific syntax.

We suggest that you instead include the script as a file to be downloaded as part of your Clone step, or an additional step.

If those options are not available, note:

  • Do not use indentation deeper than your first command.
  • Add semi-colons at the appropriate spots.
  test:
    title: "Running test"
    image: "ubuntu:latest"
    commands:
      - >-
        if [ ${{VAR}} -eq 42 ];
        then 
        echo "true";
        else 
        echo "false";
        fi
  • You can concatenate everything onto one line.

Note: We strongly suggest making use of script files where possible. This aids with GitOps and allows easier configuration changes.
