Travis conditional deployment: deploy script with regexp for branch skipped with error `branch not permitted`

I have specified multiple deploy script providers. One which is expected to run, but skipped is:

- provider: script
  skip_cleanup: true
  script: curl -sL https://git.io/goreleaser | bash -s -- --rm-dist --skip-publish
  verbose: true
  on:
    condition: "$TRAVIS_OS_NAME = linux"
    branches:
      only:
      - /^release\/.*$/
    go: 1.11.x

  • Last three deploys are only on master branch, so its right to skip them.

  • The first deploy which is on all branches matching regexp: /^release/.*$/ should run for this branch release/2.1.5. However it’s skipping this deploy too.

Can someone point why the release branch deploy is skipped in this case? I want the first deploy to run on linux and release branches only like: release/2.1.5.

To run the deploy script conditionally, say only on branches matching a regular expression like release branches as ^release\/.*$, use condition field and concatenate multiple conditions using &&. The branch or branches field does not support regexp.

If branch or branches field is not specified, travis assumes its on master branch(or default branch). So be sure to include all_branches: true line in travis config.

You can access current branch name using travis env variable $TRAVIS_BRANCH.

deploy:
  - provider: script
    script: bash myscript.sh
    verbose: true
    on:
      all_branches: true
      condition: $TRAVIS_BRANCH =~ ^release\/.*$ && $TRAVIS_OS_NAME = linux
