## Supported variables
| Variable | Description |
|------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `name` | CI service Commercial name (e.g. `Travis CI`, `CircleCI`, `GitLab CI/CD`) |
| `service` | Standardized CI service name (e.g. `travis`, `circleci`, `gitlab`) |
| `isCi` | `true` is running on a CI, `false` otherwise |
| `branch` | Git branch being built or targeted by a Pull Request |
| `commit` | Commit sha that triggered the CI build |
| `tag` | Git tag that triggered the CI build |
| `build` | CI service build number |
| `buildUrl` | Link to the CI service build |
| `job` | CI service job number |
| `jobUrl` | Link to the CI service job |
| `isPr` | `true` if the build has been triggered by a Pull Request, `false` otherwise |
| `pr` | Pull Request number (only for builds triggered by a Pull Request) |
| `prBranch` | Git branch branch from which the Pull Request originated (only for builds triggered by a Pull Request) |
| `slug` | The slug (in form: owner_name/repo_name) of the repository currently being built |
| `root` | The path to the directory where the repository is being built |
**Note**: Some variables can be detected only on certain CI services. See [Supported CI](#supported-ci).
**Note**: The `pr` and `prBranch` properties are only available for builds triggered when a Pull Request is opened/updated and not on builds triggered by a push on a branch even if that branch happens to be the branch from which the Pull Request originated.

:warning: See [Caveats](#caveats)
**Note**: Unsupported properties will always be `undefined`. For example if a Ci services doesn't support triggering builds when a Pull Request is opened/updated, `isPr` will be `undefined`.
**Note**: If none of the above CI services is detected, `commit` and `branch` are determined based on the local Git repository, and `isCi` is determined based on the `CI` environment variable.
## API
### envCi(options) => Result
#### options
Type: `Object`
#### env
Type: `Object`
Default: `process.env`
The object to read environment variables from.
#### cwd
Type: `String`
Default: `process.cwd()`
The current working directory in which to execute `git` commands used to determine the `commit` and `branch` [Result](#result) properties in case no [supported CI](#supported-ci) is detected.
### Result
Type: `Object`
[Environment variables values](#supported-variables) exposed by the CI service.
## Caveats
### AWS CodeBuild
AWS CodeBuild doesn't provide an environment variable to determine the current Git branch being built. In addition, it clones the repository in a [detached head state](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-checkout#_detached_head) so the branch cannot be determined with `git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD`.
To work around this limitation, `env-ci` look for the remote branches having the same `HEAD` as the local detached `HEAD` to determine the branch from which the detached `HEAD` was created.
In the rare case where there is multiple remote branches with the same `HEAD` as the local detached `HEAD`, `env-ci` will arbitrarily pick the first one. This can lead to an inaccurate `branch` value in such circumstances.
### Buddy
For builds triggered when [a Pull Request is opened/updated](https://buddy.works/knowledge/deployments/pull-requests), Buddy doesn't provide an environment variable indicating the branch from which the Pull Request originated nor the target branch. It also build from a branch named `pull/` so the target branch cannot be determined with a `git` command.
Therefore in the case of Pull Request builds, `env-ci` will not be able to determine the `branch` and `prBranch` properties.
See [feature request](https://forum.buddy.works/t/determine-pull-request-branch-with-environment-variable/911).
### CircleCI
For builds triggered when a Pull Request is opened/updated, CircleCI doesn't provide an environment variable indicating the target branch.
Therefore in the case of Pull Request builds, `env-ci` will not be able to determine the `branch` property. However `prBranch` will be set.
See [feature request](https://discuss.circleci.com/t/create-a-circle-target-branch-envar/10022).
## Jenkins
Triggering build when a Pull Request is opened/updated is supported only via the [ghprb-plugin](https://github.com/jenkinsci/ghprb-plugin) and [gitlab-plugin](https://github.com/jenkinsci/gitlab-plugin). Therefore `env-ci` will set `isPr`, `pr` and `prBranch` and define `branch` with the Pull Request target branch only if one those plugin is used.
## Sail
For builds triggered when a Pull Request is opened/updated, Sail doesn't provide an environment variable indicating the target branch, and the one for the current branch is set to `pull/` independently of the the branch name from which the Pull Request originated.
Therefore in the case of Pull Request builds, `env-ci` will not be able to determine the `branch` and `prBranch` properties.
## Semaphore
For builds triggered when a Pull Request is opened/updated, Semaphore doesn't provide an environment variable indicating the target branch.
Therefore in the case of Pull Request builds, `env-ci` will not be able to determine the `branch` property. However `prBranch` will be set.
