It is possible to override a variables inside a pipeline YAML anchor?

[Fernando Arteaga]

Following the official documentation for YAML anchors: https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/yaml-anchors/#Override-values, a question arises.

Since it is possible to make substitutions within a step, such as injecting a new name to the step. Is it possible to somehow inject a new value for a variable? Please see my example below to better explain my question.

definitions:
  steps:
    -step: &my-step
      name: 'I want to replace this and I can'
      script:
        - export TO_BE_CHANGED='I want to replace this and I can not'

pipelines:
  branches:
    master:
      -step:
        <<: *my-step
        name: 'Injecting new name'
        $TO_BE_CHANGED = 'Injecting new value'

Is there any way to modify the value of the variable TO_BE_CHANGED?

Thank you

@Fernando Arteaga We don't currently support overriding variables. Have you considered using deployment environments to override variables?

[Fernando Arteaga]

I am working on the CI side for now, and I am not looking for automating the deployments yet.

Although I think it could be a super nice feature to override more things inside the definitions. It really could help to reduce the size of the bitbucket-pipelines.yml file and improve the code's reusability.

Thank you for the answer

is it still no option to overriding variables inside anchor?
