Pass environment from CI to bitbake

[Toews, Artur]

Hello,

 

I’d like to pass some information from my CI job to the image build.

In best case an environment variable.

 

e.g. “BUILDNUMBER=1 kas …”

 

Is something like that possible?

 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen  
Best regards

Hi,

this is possible by defining the variables in the top-level "env" node
of the config [1]. Let me cite the docs:

Contains environment variable names with either default values or null.
These variables are made available to bitbake via
BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH_ADDITIONS (BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE in older Bitbake
versions) and can be overwritten by the variables of the environment in
which kas is started. Either a string or nothing (null) can be assigned
as value. The former one serves as a default value whereas the latter
one will lead to add the variable only to BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH_ADDITIONS
and not to the environment where kas is started. Please note, that null
needs to be assigned as the nulltype (e.g. MYVAR: null), not as ‘null’.

Example:

header: 15
env:
BUILDNUMBER:

export BUILDNUMBER=1
kas build ...
