How to skip ci with specific labels?

[littleGnAl]

I'm trying to implement the skip ci feature by filtering the label with "ci:skip", my config is here
https://github.com/AgoraIO-Extensions/Agora-Flutter-SDK/blob/47595f9a4cd4c065c10418fb3236e410bd73e852/.cirrus.yml#L7

But it seems not to work correctly, any suggestions for it?

Hey @littleGnAl,

It seems you need to modify your matching expression to .*ci:skip.*:

$CIRRUS_PR_LABELS !=~ '.*ci:skip.*'

@fkorotkov I had tried it before, but it's not working. So I change it to $CIRRUS_PR_LABELS !=~ 'ci:skip', and it work for a while after I change it, but it's not worked recently.

I think in your case the error is in $CIRRUS_PR != '' part. This makes you only run Cirrus for PRs. Link you provided is for a main branch build. It seems you can actually just use skip functionality with the following expression:

task:
  skip: $CIRRUS_REPO_OWNER != 'AgoraIO-Extensions' || $CIRRUS_PR_LABELS =~ '.*ci:skip.*'

But I want to run the build in PR only.

Then the linked check suite behaved as expected. $CIRRUS_PR was empty and it didn't run anything.

I make a change following your suggestion, but it seems not to work.
Here's a fix PR AgoraIO-Extensions/iris_method_channel_flutter#69, it works if I add the lablel "ci:skip", but after the PR merged, I open another PR with the label "ci:skip", it seems the skip not work AgoraIO-Extensions/iris_method_channel_flutter#70.
