Allow to not inherit defaults as part of job/bridge
Problem to solve
This is proposal to add additional YAML option that allows
to disable inheritance of defaults
and global yaml variables
for a particular job:
default:
image: ruby:2.1
dast:
inherit:
default: true/false # true by default
variables: true/false # true by default
script: echo Hello World
Currently, in order to disable the inheritance you have to manually overwrite
each setting. This is also impossible to stop the inheritance of variables:
as variables can also affect the behaviour of job, due to special type variables
like CI_CLONE_PATH
:
checks:
stage: .post
tags:
- linux-default
before_script: [] #override and before after scripts
after_script: [] #override and before after scripts
dependencies: []
The future
Allow the inherit:
to fine tune what will be inherited:
default:
before_script: echo Hello World
image: ruby:2.1
variables:
DOMAIN: my-domain.com
KEY: value
dast:
inherit:
default: [image] # inherit only `image:`, but not `before_script`
variables: [DOMAIN] # inherit only `DOMAIN`, but not `key`
script: echo Hello World
