How To: Start another pipeline based on condition

Overview

As part of your pipeline, you want to start another pipeline based on condition.

For example, you want to start child pipeline when one of the step fails.

Details

Use the example below:

run_tests:
    image: alpine:latest
    title: Run tests which could fail
    fail_fast: false #allow pipeline to keep running even if this step fails 
    commands:
      - exit 1 #simulate test fail

run_pipeline:
  image: codefresh/cli
  title: Run pipeline
  commands:
    - codefresh run $PIPELINE_ID -t=$TRIGGER_NAME -b=master
  when:
    condition:
      all:
        myCondition: run_tests.result == 'failure'
