TRAVIS_BUILD_STAGE_NAME not populated

Using this config

language: node_js
node_js:
  - 14

env:
  global:
    - MY_VAR=true

stages:
  - test

jobs:
  include:
    - stage: test
      script:
        - echo "MY_VAR is $MY_VAR"
        - echo "TRAVIS_BUILD_STAGE_NAME is $TRAVIS_BUILD_STAGE_NAME"

TRAVIS_BUILD_STAGE_NAME never gets populated. The output from the above is

MY_VAR is true
TRAVIS_BUILD_STAGE_NAME is

Why isn’t the value test getting assigned to TRAVIS_BUILD_STAGE_NAME?

thanks!

Hello,

Just making sure, but I’m assuming you defined your environment variables prior to running this?

One shouldn’t have to define it. According to the docs:

The following default environment variables are available to all builds.
…
TRAVIS_BUILD_STAGE_NAME: The build stage. If a build does not use build stages, this variable is empty

Other default environment variables work as expected, ie TRAVIS_EVENT_TYPE, TRAVIS_BRANCH, etc.

Anyone? @Montana ? Thanks.

Hi everyone,

We’ve created a workaround that looks like this:

after_success: 
  - "[[ $TRAVIS_TEST_RESULT = 0 ]] && echo passed"
after_failure: 
  - "[[ $TRAVIS_TEST_RESULT = 1 ]] && echo failed"

So a working .travis.yml that we’ve tested is as follows:

os: linux
language: shell
install: skip

before_deploy:
  - if [[ $TRAVIS_TEST_RESULT == 1 ]]; then echo "exiting due to failed build"; sleep 2; exit 1; fi
deploy:
  provider: s3
  script: ./deploy.sh
  on:
    branch: minimal-build-check
  edge: true

jobs:
  include:
    - name: PASSING
      script:
        - sleep 2
    - name: FAILING
      script:
        - false

Make sure edge: true is present as this may curb any stashing issues you run into. Let me know if this works.

Cheers,
Montana

Hi @Montana I replied to this about a week ago but something triggered spam. Are you able to retrieve my reply so I can try again? No idea what triggered spam, and my issue isn’t resolved. Thank you!
