Issues in the documentation

[MattPumphreyWorkRise]

So while trying out this orb, there seems to be some missing jobs and or other information. So I am trying to use build job but this does not actual exist in the source code, so that would be helpful.

One issue that I am having is I am trying to pass parameters in from the CircleCI default values, I keep getting the variable instead of the string that comes from the circleci variables:

in my orb, up a parameter that defaults to the CIRCLE_PROJECT_REPONAME and when I pass that into the image-name fields I get an error about unable to parse, and it displays the variable name and not the variable value, as such it makes that hard to adopt into my orb and wrap it with our defaults.

If I'm reading this correctly, it seems like your issue may be outside of the scope of the pack-orb. Could you provide a snippet of your config.yml?

Also, could you provide more details on this comment:

Have you seen the example usage here?

[MattPumphreyWorkRise]

I have seen the example, also I am curious as to how you got the "job" to show up even though there is not a folder for it under the src directory, which does not allow for that to be called. So according to the documentation generated by your orb you should have a job, but the actual job does not exist in your source, or if it does I have not been able to find it. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[jromero]

The source for the job is here.

We don't use all parts of an unpacked orb. We use only examples and commands of the unpacked strcuture.

[MattPumphreyWorkRise]

I appreciate it, that might explain while trying to use the job that is defined, there didnt actually work to be used outside of that. Which is why only the commands are able to be used, kind of makes adoption a bit rough, just saying is all. Also explains some the of the other behaviors that I am seeing as we go down the path of making a custom job based off of those commands but not actually using those commands. Thanks.

[jromero]

Honestly, I'm not sure I understand. In what context are you trying to use the job since it should be usable as per the examples. Could you provide a config or other context?

copying the examples directly into a workflow only returns strings of errors.
