ADO Pipeline helper

Python package and commandline tool for helping with writing Azure Devops pipelines.

Features

None of these are implemented mind you as of now

• validate pipeline (load .azure-pipeline, resolve templates, send to run endpoint with yamlOverride and preview=True)
• validate library groups (see if value exists)
• MAYBE: validate schedule cron
• Warning about templating syntax errors (like missing $ before {{ }} )

Limitations

• Can't resolve {{ }} expressions, only simple {{ parameter.<key>}} ones. I started working on a custom resovler but it was a lot of work. You can see it on the branch expression resolver under ado_pipeline_helper/src/ado_pipeline_helper/resolver/expression.py
