Using a Step Template within a Phase Template (nested templates) about azure-pipelines-yaml HOT 4 CLOSED

TIL: Only need to define the resource in the root yaml, gets inherited to all templates underneath. This also means you can only use that initial template resource as a source for your templates and do not need to include the @repository-resource when defining those nested templates.

from azure-pipelines-yaml.

You can nest templates but resources can currently only appear in your root file.

Why do you need to define a resources section in your template? (I may have a workaround)

from azure-pipelines-yaml.

Do I not need to define the resources again inside the nested template? The main config has resources defined, I didn't know if that is adequate for nested templates too. If so, then great.

from azure-pipelines-yaml.

TWIMC: it seems that you can have multiple resources if you use new extends keyword. This works:

• azure-pipelines.yml

resources:
   containers:
      - container: node_latest
        image: node:latest

extends:
  template: template.yml

• template.yml

resources:
   containers:
      - container: node_lts
        image: node:lts

from azure-pipelines-yaml.
