Bitbucket artifacts to share temp data

💻 Tech

To share files with another steps in Bitbucket pipelines, you can use artifacts. In addition, you can use that to share data with other steps since you can’t share variables among the steps. One example is the use of temporary files.

definitions:
  steps:
    - step: build
        script:
          - echo 'some data' > somedata.txt
        artifacts:
          - somedata.txt
    - step: deploy
        script: echo $(cat somedata.txt)
