Padawan Pipeline Variables

This table defines all the variables Padawan can read from your project's Gitlab CI/CD pipeline variables found under Settings→CI/CD→Variables.

Variable	Default Value	Valid Values	Protected?	Masked?	Description
BUILD_OUTPUT_DIR	dist	(string)	yes	no	The directory of the site to deploy. For example, React projects should use BUILD_OUTPUT_DIR=build since build is the default React output directory.
CYPRESS_SCREENSHOTS_PATH	cypress/screenshots	(string)	yes	no	For pipelines that have an E2E test step, such as npm pipeline, you can modify this value to specify where Cypress stores screenshot artifacts. The path should match the screenshotsFolder variable in your repo's cypress.config.js
CYPRESS_VIDEOS_PATH	cypress/videos	(string)	yes	no	For pipelines that have an E2E test step, such as npm pipeline, you can modify this value to specify where Cypress stores video artifacts. The path should match the videosFolder variable in your repo's cypress.config.js
DEBUG	0	1 or 0	yes	no	See extended console outputs of pipeline jobs (when value is 1).
DEPENDENCY_CHECK_EXTRA_ARGS	--failOnCVSS 7.6	(string)	yes	no	Extra arguments to pass to the dependency check job. See https://jeremylong.github.io/DependencyCheck/dependency-check-cli/arguments.html for more information.
E2E_TARGET	source	source or staging	yes	no	For pipelines that have an E2E test step, such as npm pipeline, you can modify this value to change where the E2E test step is run. More information can be found in recommended-gitlab-config
FORCE_DOWNLOAD_DEPENDENCIES	false	true or false	yes	no	Forces download of dependencies instead of relying on the cache.
HUGO_IMAGE_VERSION	registry.dso.mil/ironbank/opensource/gohugo/hugo-extended:v0.123.0	(string)	yes	no	For hugo pipelines, this determines the docker image used to run the build job
NODE_IMAGE_VERSION	registry1.dso.mil/ironbank/opensource/nodejs/nodejs18:18.17.1	(string)	yes	no	For npm pipelines, this determines the docker image used to run jobs (npm-install, build, unit-test, etc.)
PADAWAN_DEPLOYMENT_BRANCH	master	(string)	yes	no	Only referenced if PADAWAN_DEPLOYMENT_TYPE=branch. When changes happen on this branch the deployment pipeline will be triggered.
PADAWAN_DEPLOYMENT_TIMEOUT	300	(int)	yes	no	Default value: 300 seconds (5 minutes). Minimum value: 15 seconds. Maximum value: 900 seconds (15 minutes). This timeout determines how long to continue checking whether the new site version has been deployed yet.
PADAWAN_DEPLOYMENT_TYPE	tag	tag or branch	yes	no	The mechanism you want to use for deployment. Can be either tag or branch. If tag, repo tags that match the semver "v0.0.1" or "0.0.1" will enable the deployment pipeline. If branch, branches that match PADAWAN_DEPLOYMENT_BRANCH will enable the deployment pipeline.
PADAWAN_PRODUCTION_CONTROL_GATE	true	true or false	yes	no	Determines if a manual control gate step should be in the pipeline before deploying to the production environment. Values: true or false.
PADAWAN_STAGING_CONTROL_GATE	false	true or false	yes	no	Determines if a manual control gate step should be in the pipeline before deploying to the staging environment. Values: true or false.

SKIP_LINT	false	true or false	yes	no	For pipelines that have a lint step, such as the npm pipeline, you can optionally skip linting.
SKIP_UNIT_TEST	false	true or false	yes	no	For pipelines that have a unit test step, such as the npm pipeline, you can optionally skip unit tests.
