Fails a pipeline if an artifact is not approved for deployment in Merkely.

• Docker
• Bitbucket
• Github

Open an example, similar to the fragment below, from a git repo.

docker run \
    --env MERKELY_COMMAND=control_deployment \
    --env MERKELY_FINGERPRINT="${MERKELY_FINGERPRINT}" \
    --env MERKELY_OWNER="${MERKELY_OWNER}" \
    --env MERKELY_PIPELINE="${MERKELY_PIPELINE}" \
    --env MERKELY_API_TOKEN="${MERKELY_API_TOKEN}" \
    --env MERKELY_HOST="${MERKELY_HOST}" \
    --env MERKELY_DRY_RUN="${MERKELY_DRY_RUN}" \
    --rm \
    --volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
    merkely/change:latest
