Is there a way to restrict circleci deployment on checkings that have a git release(release a tag)
I think there are several ways to achieve what you want.
With this example you can run a specific deployment only when the tag matches some regex.
workflows:
my-deploy-workflow:
jobs:
- deploy-my-app:
filters:
tags:
only: <put some regex here>
Another option is to use the actual tag, which you can access through pipeline parameters: << pipeline.git.tag >>
(link to docs: https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/pipeline-variables/)
Here, you can use the following construct to test for equality:
workflows:
my-deploy-workflow:
when:
and:
- equal: [something, << pipeline.git.tag >>]
jobs:
- deploy-my-app
Additionally, you could also use the filtering options at the job level, instead of the workflow level.
