Parametrized pipeline in GoCD?

Question

I'm evaluating GoCD if we would be able to use it instead of Jenkins.

Is there any way how to create a parameterized pipeline like parametrized jobs in Jenkins?

In Jenkins, we're using these parameters in some jobs which are executed manually to configure "full-rebuild" of the project:

This bool value is passed as ENV variable to the job. I have found that GoCD has ENVs but I didn't find if there is a way how such ENV can be selected before manual executing.

Thanks

Yes. It is possible to parameterize pipelines in GoCD.

Go to pipeline settings -> parameters and add desired parameters. A parameter can be added with a default value, if required.

The next time a pipeline is triggered, one could override the default value with new value and trigger it. The parameters can be accesses inside pipeline scripts using #{myParam}.

More detail here: https://docs.gocd.org/current/configuration/admin_use_parameters_in_configuration.html

Below is a snapshot to set Docker information as environment variables. enter image description here

Thanks a lot for the reply. Is there any way (plugin or extension) how to create a typed parameter? For example, BOOL value is a checkbox? – Ludek Vodicka Jul 24 '20 at 11:48
As far as I know , typed parameters are not possible. – Vasanth Gopal Jul 24 '20 at 18:31
