This repository is an example Buildkite pipeline that demonstrates how to use a Block Step to pause a build and prompt for manual input.
👉 See this example in action: https://buildkite.com/buildkite/block-step-example
See the full Getting Started Guide for step-by-step instructions on how to get this running, or try it yourself:
The build is paused at the first block step, prompting for release details
The release form with fields for name, changelog, and release type
The pipeline resumes after the first block step, with the notify step next in the build
The notify input dialog prompting for which team should be notified
The pipeline completes, and the release script logs all submitted input values
This example:
- Uses a Block Step with custom input fields.
- Includes a
release.shscript that reads values entered during the block step. - Dynamically generates prompt fields using
generate-notify-pipeline.sh.
