Auto trigger on 2 branches only

[smitmartijn]

Hi,

I'm trying to get a codemagic.yaml in place that'll automatically trigger builds on 2 branches: release and beta and I'm hoping someone here can provide guidance. The documentation only has single branch examples..So far, I've tried this:

    triggering:
      branch_patterns:
        - pattern: '*'
          include: false
        - pattern: 'release'
          include: true
        - pattern: 'beta'
          include: true
      events:
        - push
      cancel_previous_builds: true

And without the initial exclude:

    triggering:
      branch_patterns:
        - pattern: 'release'
          include: true
        - pattern: 'beta'
          include: true
      events:
        - push
      cancel_previous_builds: true

Also tried with regex:

    triggering:
      branch_patterns:
        - pattern: '[beta|release]'
          include: true
      events:
        - push
      cancel_previous_builds: true

But none of these trigger automatic builds.

I did find semi-success with this:

workflows:
  beta:
    triggering:
      events:
        - push
      branch_patterns:
        - pattern: "beta"
          include: true
    scripts:
      - *step_1
      - *step_2
  release:
    triggering:
      events:
        - push
      branch_patterns:
        - pattern: "release"
          include: true
    scripts:
      - *step_1
      - *step_2

However, I have over 20 steps and I'd like to avoid repeating the scripts block, if possible.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

🤔 actually 2nd example should work as expected. Did you check webhooks tab to find a reason why build didn't start?

ps: branch_patterns use glob not regex unfortunately

Well, that's embarrassing. The webhook was missing. 🤦

The second bit now works as expected, now that Codemagic is learning about new pushes. 🥳
