Hi,
I’m trying to split my gitlab-ci.yml
in multiple files because it’s very big.
I have a file called .cache-ci.yml
which looks like this:
cache: &cache
key:
files:
- package.json
paths:
- .npm
- cache/Cypress
- node_modules
I would like to include this file in another file .lint-ci.yml
so I have done something like this:
include: '.cache-ci.yml'
# Linting checks
lint:
stage: lint
image: ${CI_DEPENDENCY_PROXY_GROUP_IMAGE_PREFIX}/timbru31/node-alpine-git:latest
cache:
<<: *cache
policy: pull
before_script:
- git fetch
script:
- npm run affected:lint
- npm run stylelint:apps
- npm run stylelint:libs
except:
- master
- /^release-.*$/
- develop
Finally this file .lint-ci.yml
is included in my .gitlab-ci.yml
. Unfortunately I get an syntax error:
Included file `ci/.lint-ci.yml` does not have valid YAML syntax!
What am I doing wrong ? My guess is that it is due the reference <<: *cache
. I’m doing this because I need to use that cache
reference in a lot of places and I don’t want to copy/paste everywhere.
