How to build and install Golang

Setting up .env

Please see .envExample as a guide to create .env

export githubPAT = <github access token>
githubTarget = <github org or user name>
gitlabNamespaceID = <gitlab user or group ID>
gitlabToken = <gitlab access token>

Query GitHub API for all repositories within an organization:

curl "https://api.github.com/users/$GHUSER/repos?access_token=$GITHUB_API_TOKEN" | grep -w clone_url

Create repository in GitLab with GitLab API V4

curl -H "Content-Type:application/json" https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects?private_token=TOKEN -d "{ \"name\": \"newRepo\", \"namespace_id\": \"ID\" }"

TOKEN = gitLab personal access token

(User Settings > Access Tokens)

ID = gitLab group namespace_id

request all groups associated with account to get namespace id namespace.id

curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/namespaces"
