Semaphore

In Semaphore 2.0 each project starts with the default pipeline specified in .semaphore/semaphore.yml.

.semaphore/semaphore.yml

version: v1.0
name: Build
agent:
  machine:
    type: e1-standard-2
    os_image: ubuntu1804

blocks:
  - name: "Test"
    task:
      prologue:
        commands:
          # set go version
          - sem-version go 1.27
          - "export GOPATH=~/go"
          - "export PATH=/home/semaphore/go/bin:$PATH"
          - checkout

      jobs:
        - name: "Lint"
          commands:
            - go get ./...
            - go test ./...

# On Semaphore 2.0 deployment and delivery is managed with promotions,
# which may be automatic or manual and optionally depend on conditions.
promotions:
  - name: Release
    pipeline_file: goreleaser.yaml
    auto_promote_on:
      - result: passed
        branch:
          - "^refs/tags/v*"

Pipeline file in .semaphore/goreleaser.yaml:

.semaphore/goreleaser.yaml

version: "v1.0"
name: GoReleaser
agent:
  machine:
    type: e1-standard-2
    os_image: ubuntu1804
blocks:
  - name: "Release"
    task:
      secrets:
        - name: goreleaser
      prologue:
        commands:
          - sem-version go 1.27
          - "export GOPATH=~/go"
          - "export PATH=/home/semaphore/go/bin:$PATH"
          - checkout
      jobs:
        - name: goreleaser
          commands:
            - curl -sfL https://goreleaser.com/static/run | bash

The following YAML file, createSecret.yml creates a new secret item that is called GoReleaser with one environment variable, named GITHUB_TOKEN:

createSecret.yml

apiVersion: v1alpha
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: goreleaser
data:
  env_vars:
    - name: GITHUB_TOKEN
      value: "your token here"
