I have a reusable workflow that has 4 jobs in it. Lets say, A, B, C and D.
Now in my caller workflow i have two jobs
Job1 : calls the reusable workflow
Job2 : Comments to PR if any of B, C or D succeeded . If all B, C and D skipped, I want Job 2 to skip
Problem Im facing is that step A in the reusable workflow will always pass and hence the status of by reusable job is always success even if B, C and D skipped.
Solutions tried so far,
tried to set output of reusable workflow to an expression that evaluates the result of B,C and D as below
outputs:
skip_deployment:
description: Flag to skip any dependent jobs
value: ${{ jobs.B.result == 'skipped' && jobs.C.result == 'skipped' && jobs.D.result == 'skipped'}}
But this always returns false
. But when I check the jobs
context by ToJson(jobs)
, I can see the results are indeed skipped
I also observed that ${{ jobs.B.result }}
is returning empty
