Gitlab

Gitlab is a Ruby wrapper and CLI for the GitLab API.
As of version 4.0.0 this gem only supports Ruby 2.0+ and Gitlab API v4.

Installation

Install it from rubygems:

gem install gitlab

Or add to a Gemfile:

gem 'gitlab'
# gem 'gitlab', github: 'NARKOZ/gitlab'

Usage

Configuration example:

Gitlab.configure do |config|
  config.endpoint       = 'https://example.net/api/v4' # API endpoint URL, default: ENV['GITLAB_API_ENDPOINT']
  config.private_token  = 'qEsq1pt6HJPaNciie3MG'       # user's private token or OAuth2 access token, default: ENV['GITLAB_API_PRIVATE_TOKEN']
  # Optional
  # config.user_agent   = 'Custom User Agent'          # user agent, default: 'Gitlab Ruby Gem [version]'
  # config.sudo         = 'user'                       # username for sudo mode, default: nil
end

(Note: If you are using GitLab.com's hosted service, your endpoint will be https://gitlab.com/api/v4)

Usage examples:

# set an API endpoint
Gitlab.endpoint = 'http://example.net/api/v4'
# => "http://example.net/api/v4"

# set a user private token
Gitlab.private_token = 'qEsq1pt6HJPaNciie3MG'
# => "qEsq1pt6HJPaNciie3MG"

# configure a proxy server
Gitlab.http_proxy('proxyhost', 8888)
# proxy server w/ basic auth
Gitlab.http_proxy('proxyhost', 8888, 'proxyuser', 'strongpasswordhere')

# list projects
Gitlab.projects(per_page: 5)

CLI

It is possible to use this gem as a command line interface to gitlab. In order to make that work you need to set a few environment variables:

export GITLAB_API_ENDPOINT=https://gitlab.yourcompany.com/api/v4
export GITLAB_API_PRIVATE_TOKEN=<your private token from /profile/account>
# This one is optional and can be used to set any HTTParty option you may need
# using YAML hash syntax. For example, this is how you would disable SSL
# verification (useful if using a self-signed cert).
export GITLAB_API_HTTPARTY_OPTIONS="{verify: false}"

Usage:

When you want to know which CLI commands are supported, take a look at the client commands implemented in this gem. Any of those methods can be called as a command by passing the parameters of the commands as parameters of the CLI.

Usage examples:

# list users
# see: http://www.rubydoc.info/gems/gitlab/3.4.0/Gitlab/Client/Users#users-instance_method
gitlab users

# get current user
# see: http://www.rubydoc.info/gems/gitlab/3.4.0/Gitlab/Client/Users#user-instance_method
gitlab user

# get a user
# see: http://www.rubydoc.info/gems/gitlab/3.4.0/Gitlab/Client/Users#user-instance_method
gitlab user 2

# filter output
gitlab user --only=id,username

gitlab user --except=email,bio

# get a user and render result as json
gitlab user 2 --json

# passing options hash to a command (use YAML)
# see: http://www.rubydoc.info/gems/gitlab/3.4.0/Gitlab/Client/MergeRequests#create_merge_request-instance_method
gitlab create_merge_request 4 "New merge request" "{source_branch: 'new_branch', target_branch: 'master', assignee_id: 42}"

CLI Shell

Usage examples:

# start shell session
gitlab shell

# list available commands
gitlab> help

# list groups
gitlab> groups

# protect a branch
gitlab> protect_branch 1 master

# passing options hash to a command (use YAML)
gitlab> create_merge_request 4 "New merge request" "{source_branch: 'new_branch', target_branch: 'master', assignee_id: 42}"
