Use regex on run_if

[blackjid]

Any idea on how to conditionally run (or skip) a step using regex?

Something like this?

app:
  envs:
    - PLATFORMS: ios,android
workflows:
  _setup_ios:
    steps:
    - my_step:
      run_if: |-
        {{ PLATFORMS.include? "ios" }}
  _setup_android:
    steps:
    - my_step:
      run_if: |-
        {{ PLATFORMS.include? "android" }}

thanks

Hi @blackjid,

Please see: How to use `runif:` to check git last commit message - #2 by viktorbenei

So, the thing about the run_if statements is that those can’t do any computation, only “flag” checks (e.g. .IsBuildFailed) and Environment Variable comparisons.

What you can do is to combine this with e.g. a Script step, where you can do any computation you need, and then expose an Environment Variable from that Script step.
