Implement passing ENV variables from dependent jobs
What does this MR do?
Related to: #22638 (closed)
With help of DotEnv Variables Support, we can easily inherit env variables of dependent jobs.
With this MR, a job will inherit all Ci::JobVariable
s of dependencies if they are sourced with dotenv
.
It will be enabled with FF ci_dependency_variables
. (and will be deleted with a follow-up issue)
NOTE:
The implementation is different than Technical proposal of the issue.
Example
build:
stage: build
script:
- echo "BUILD_VERSION=hello" >> build.env
artifacts:
reports:
dotenv: build.env
deploy:
stage: deploy
script:
- echo $BUILD_VERSION
dependencies:
- build
