These objects cannot be edited. But you - can create a new ``ProjectMergeRequest`` or ``ProjectIssue`` object to - apply changes. For example:: - - issue = gl.issues.list()[0] - project = gl.projects.get(issue.project_id, lazy=True) - editable_issue = project.issues.get(issue.iid, lazy=True) - # you can now edit the object - - See the :ref:`merge requests example <merge_requests_examples>` and the - :ref:`issues examples <issues_examples>`. - -How can I clone the repository of a project? - python-gitlab doesn't provide an API to clone a project. You have to use a - git library or call the ``git`` command. - - The git URI is exposed in the ``ssh_url_to_repo`` attribute of ``Project`` - objects. - - Example:: - - import subprocess - - project = gl.projects.create(data) # or gl.projects.get(project_id) - print(project.attributes) # displays all the attributes - git_url = project.ssh_url_to_repo - subprocess.call(['git', 'clone', git_url]) - -I get an ``AttributeError`` when accessing attributes after ``save()`` or ``refresh()``. - You are most likely trying to access an attribute that was not returned - by the server on the second request. Please look at the documentation in - :ref:`object_attributes` to see how to avoid this. |
