Trigger Bitbucket pipeline based on commits in specific branch or specific tag

Trigger pipeline based on commits in specific branch

pipelines:
  branches:
    master:
      - step:
          script:
            - echo "master"
    develop:
      - step:
          script:
            - echo "work"

If we have to do same jobs for multiple branch, we can use a list of branch names. Note that there is no empty spaces in the list of branches!

pipelines:
  branches:
    '{master,develop,feature}':
      - step:
          script:
            - echo "master, develop or feature"
    work:
      - step:
          script:
            - echo "work"

Trigger pipeline based on tag

pipelines:
  tags:
    '*':
      - step:
          name: "Preparing bash to scripts"
          script:
            - echo $BITBUCKET_TAG

The $BITBUCKET_TAG is the default variable availe in pipeline.

Trigger pipeline based on release candidate tag

For our release canditate, we will add a tag with format like [our-version-number]-rc[increment]. An example is 2.9.3-rc1 etc.

pipelines:
  tags:
    '*-rc*':
      - step:
          script:
            - echo "My tag build"
