Configuration files

Pipelight needs a configuration file named pipelight.<file_extension> This is where your pipeline definitions reside.

Pipelight recursively seeks into parent directories until it reaches a configuration file.

pipelight.ts;
# or
pipelight.js;
# or
pipelight.toml;
# or
pipelight.yml;

pipelight.ts;
# or
pipelight.js;
# or
pipelight.toml;
# or
pipelight.yml;

To sum up the seeking algorithm, the directory identified as your project root is the directory containing the pipelight.ts file.

Load other configurations

If you which to use another config file for testing purpose, the cli has a global --config option.

However, whenever you want to load pipelines from multiple files, you should use typescript native import and export statements.

The --config option accepts:

pipelight ls --config test.pipelight.ts;

pipelight ls --config test.pipelight.ts;

pipelight ls --config ./tests/test.pipelight.ts;

pipelight ls --config ./tests/test.pipelight.ts;

a seed, looks for a file containing this string and with on of the implemented file extensions.

pipelight ls --config test.pipelight

pipelight ls --config test.pipelight
