Hi everyone,
I'm currently working with a monorepository that contains multiple applications, including:
I'm using SAP CI/CD and have encountered challenges when trying to set up separate CI/CD jobs for each application within the same repository.
Challenge:
SAP CI/CD seems to only allow one .pipeline folder and one config.yml file per repository when using Infrastructure as Code (IaC). However, in a monorepo setup, I need to define different build and deployment jobs for each application (frontend, backend, etc.), ideally in isolation from each other.
What I’ve Tried:
Copying the .pipeline folder into each application directory
– This does not work. During execution, SAP CI/CD always searches for the .pipeline folder at the root of the repository. If not found there, it throws an error.
Using cd or changing directory in runFirst before a stage (e.g., cd frontend && npm install)
– This also doesn’t work. The pipeline execution seems to disregard directory changes or expects absolute control over execution flow.
What I’m Looking For:
How can I separate pipeline jobs for each application in a monorepo using SAP CI/CD?
Is there a best practice or workaround that would allow this setup with only one .pipeline/config.yml allowed?
Has anyone succeeded in setting up conditional stages, path filters, or custom scripts within a monorepo under these constraints?
Any ideas, examples, or pointers from those with experience in SAP CI/CD and monorepos would be incredibly helpful.
Thanks in advance!
