List of all the environment variables available

Question

Hi

I'm working on developping a CodeCatalyst action. I see in other available actions code like

const workflowName = core.getEnvironmentVariable('CATALYST_WORKFLOW_NAME').trim()
  const projectName = core.getEnvironmentVariable('CATALYST_WORKFLOW_PROJECT_NAME').trim()

Where are all these environment variables documented ?

I cannot find any reference to CATALYST_WORKFLOW_NAME, nor CATALYST_WORKFLOW_PROJECT_NAME in your documentation

Thanks

Answer

Hi there -  Thank you for reaching out to us. So CodeCatalyst haven't yet officially published the supported environment variables. But we are working on publishing them soon.

In the meantime to unblock yourself, you may use them. But they may change when we officially publish the supported environment variables.

Hi,

The list of official and service-defined environment variables is at https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codecatalyst/latest/userguide/workflows-using-predefined-variables.html#workflow-ref-action-variables-workflow-source

Best,

Didier

Thank you. Side question. In your doc, I see that I can get the branch name from the environment variables

One way to get it is, as stated in your doc
`MyInput: ${WorkflowSource.BranchName}`

And then I can get it in Typescript code using `core.getInput('MyInput');`

From what I understood, BranchName is an environment variable, but when I try to get it's value in Typescript directly, without going via an input variable, it is not working.

`core.getEnvironmentVariable('BranchName')` -> This is not returning the branch name

Am I doing something wrong? Any way to get the branch name in the TS code without using input variables ?
