+# eosio
+The [eosio](https://buildkite.com/EOSIO/eosio) pipeline is the primary CI/CD pipeline for members of the EOSIO organization developing on the EOSIO/eos repository. The [eosio-build-unpinned](https://buildkite.com/EOSIO/eosio-build-unpinned) pipeline is also executed regularly. The difference in these two pipelines is whether the compiler and other dependencies are pinned to specific versions. The eosio pipeline uses pinned compilers/dependencies while the eosio-build-unpinned pipeline avoids pinning dependencies as much as possible.

+
+### Variables
+Most pipelines in the organization have several environment variables that can be used to configure how the pipeline runs. These environment variables can be specified when manually triggering a build via the Buildkite UI.
+
+Configure which operating systems are built, tested, and packaged:
+```bash
+SKIP_LINUX='true|false'              # true skips all build/test/packaging steps on Linux distros
+SKIP_MAC='true|false'                # true skips all build/test/packaging steps on Mac hardware
+SKIP_AMAZON_LINUX_2='true|false'     # true skips all build/test/packaging steps for Amazon Linux 2
+SKIP_CENTOS_7_7='true|false'         # true skips all build/test/packaging steps for Centos 7
+SKIP_CENTOS_8='true|false'           # true skips all build/test/packaging steps for Centos 8
+SKIP_MACOS_10_14='true|false'        # true skips all build/test/packaging steps for MacOS 10.14
+SKIP_MACOS_10_15='true|false'        # true skips all build/test/packaging steps for MacOS 10.15
+SKIP_MACOS_11='true|false'           # true skips all build/test/packaging steps for MacOS 11
+SKIP_UBUNTU_16_04='true|false'       # true skips all build/test/packaging steps for Ubuntu 16.04
+SKIP_UBUNTU_18_04='true|false'       # true skips all build/test/packaging steps for Ubuntu 18.04
+SKIP_UBUNTU_20_04='true|false'       # true skips all build/test/packaging steps for Ubuntu 20.04
+```
+
+Configure which steps are executed for each operating system:
+```bash
+SKIP_BUILD='true|false'              # true skips all build steps for all distros
+SKIP_UNIT_TESTS='true|false'         # true skips all unit test executions for all distros
+SKIP_WASM_SPEC_TESTS='true|false'    # true skips all wasm spec test executions for all distros
+SKIP_SERIAL_TESTS='true|false'       # true skips all integration test executions for all distros
+SKIP_LONG_RUNNING_TESTS='true|false' # true skips all long running test executions for all distros
+SKIP_MULTIVERSION_TEST='true|false'  # true skips all multiversion tests
+SKIP_SYNC_TESTS='true|false'         # true skips all sync tests
+SKIP_PACKAGE_BUILDER='true|false'    # true skips all package building steps for all distros
+```
+
+Configure how the steps are executed:
+```bash
+PINNED='true|false'                  # controls compiler/dependency pinning
+TIMEOUT='##'                         # controls timeout in minutes for all steps
+```
+
+### Examples
+Build and test on Linux only:
+```bash
+SKIP_MAC='true'
+```
+
+Build and test on MacOS only:
+```bash
+SKIP_LINUX='true'
+```
+
+Skip all tests:
+```bash
+SKIP_UNIT_TESTS='true'
+SKIP_WASM_SPEC_TESTS='true'
+SKIP_SERIAL_TESTS='true'
+SKIP_LONG_RUNNING_TESTS='true'
+SKIP_MULTIVERSION_TEST='true'
+SKIP_SYNC_TESTS='true'
+```
+
+### Pipelines
+There are several eosio pipelines that are exist and executed via pull requests, triggered from other builds, or scheduled to run on a regular basis:
+
+
+Pipeline | Details
+---|---
+[eosio](https://buildkite.com/EOSIO/eosio) | Primary pipeline for the EOSIO/eos Github repo. It is triggered when a pull request is created.
+[eosio-build-unpinned](https://buildkite.com/EOSIO/eosio-build-unpinned) | Pipeline that performs a build without a pinned compiler. It is triggered when a pull request is created.
+[eosio-lrt](https://buildkite.com/EOSIO/eosio-lrt) | Pipeline that only executes the long running tests. It is triggered after a pull request is merged.
+[eosio-base-images](https://buildkite.com/EOSIO/eosio-base-images) | Pipeline that ensures all MacOS VM and Docker container builders can be built. It is scheduled for periodic execution.
+[eosio-build-scripts](https://buildkite.com/EOSIO/eosio-build-scripts) | Pipeline that ensure the build scripts function. It is scheduled for periodic execution.
+[eosio-big-sur-beta](https://buildkite.com/EOSIO/eosio-big-sur-beta) | Pipeline that performs a build only using MacOS 11 builders. It is scheduled for periodic execution.
+[eosio-sync-from-genesis](https://buildkite.com/EOSIO/eosio-sync-from-genesis) | Pipeline that ensures built code can sync properly. It is triggered during pull request builds.
+[eosio-resume-from-state](https://buildkite.com/EOSIO/eosio-resume-from-state) | Pipeline that ensures that built binaries can resume from previous binary versions. It is triggered during pull request builds.
