How can I pass predefined variables as a list to a step in a Bitbucket pipeline?

[Supul Pushpakumara]

I have defined a reusable step in my Bitbucket pipeline that runs a script for different IMAGE_NAME values. Currently, I pass the IMAGE_NAME one by one in the script section for each step. Is there a way to pass all the IMAGE_NAME values together to a single step, or iterate over them without overriding the variables section for each step?

Details:

1. Current Setup:

   • A reusable step is defined with a variables section that includes common variable.
   • The step is reused multiple times, each time with a different variable value.

2. Goal:

   • Simplify the pipeline by passing all common variable values together to a single step.
   • Avoid duplicating the step for each common variable.

3. Challenges:

   • The variables section in Bitbucket pipelines is static and cannot be dynamically overridden within a single step.
   • Iterating over a list of values within a single step is not natively supported in Bitbucket pipelines.
