Build Environment

Im getting this errror:

  • Error parsing config file: yaml: line 1: mapping values are not allowed in this context
  • Cannot find a job named build to run in the jobs: section of your configuration file.
    If you expected a workflow to run, check your config contains a top-level key called ‘workflows:’

fixed it! sorry didn’t mean to do that

There’s two YAML errors that I can see. The first is that this should not be indented at all

   references:

With this one it is difficult to know what was meant:

  images: base_image: &base_image

Put the whole thing in a dynamic YAML parser to check its validity.

It was not indented on my yaml file, but regardless getting the same error
