``python-gitlab`` is a Python package providing access to the GitLab server API.
It supports the v4 API of GitLab, and provides a CLI tool (``gitlab``).
Installation
------------
As of 3.0.0, ``python-gitlab`` is compatible with Python 3.7+.
Use ``pip`` to install the latest stable version of ``python-gitlab``:
.. code-block:: console
$ pip install --upgrade python-gitlab
The current development version is available on both `GitHub.com
<https://github.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab>`__ and `GitLab.com
<https://gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab>`__, and can be
installed directly from the git repository:
.. code-block:: console
$ pip install git+https://github.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab.git
From GitLab:
.. code-block:: console
$ pip install git+https://gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab.git
Using the docker images
-----------------------
``python-gitlab`` provides Docker images in two flavors, based on the Alpine and Debian slim
python `base images <https://hub.docker.com/_/python>`__. The default tag is ``alpine``,
but you can explicitly use the alias (see below).
The alpine image is smaller, but you may want to use the Debian-based slim tag (currently
based on ``-slim-bullseye``) if you are running into issues or need a more complete environment
with a bash shell, such as in CI jobs.
The images are published on the GitLab registry, for example:
* ``registry.gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab:latest`` (latest, alpine alias)
* ``registry.gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab:alpine`` (latest alpine)
* ``registry.gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab:slim-bullseye`` (latest slim-bullseye)
* ``registry.gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab:v3.2.0`` (alpine alias)
* ``registry.gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab:v3.2.0-alpine``
* ``registry.gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab:v3.2.0-slim-bullseye``
You can run the Docker image directly from the GitLab registry:
.. code-block:: console
$ docker run -it --rm registry.gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab:latest <command> ...
For example, to get a project on GitLab.com (without authentication):
.. code-block:: console
$ docker run -it --rm registry.gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab:latest project get --id gitlab-org/gitlab
You can also mount your own config file:
.. code-block:: console
$ docker run -it --rm -v /path/to/python-gitlab.cfg:/etc/python-gitlab.cfg registry.gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab:latest <command> ...
Building the image
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To build your own image from this repository, run:
.. code-block:: console
$ docker build -t python-gitlab:latest .
Run your own image:
.. code-block:: console
$ docker run -it --rm python-gitlab:latest <command> ...
Build a Debian slim-based image:
.. code-block:: console
$ docker build -t python-gitlab:latest --build-arg PYTHON_FLAVOR=slim-bullseye .
Bug reports
-----------
Please report bugs and feature requests at
https://github.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab/issues.
Gitter Community Chat
---------------------
We have a `gitter <https://gitter.im/python-gitlab/Lobby>`_ community chat
available at https://gitter.im/python-gitlab/Lobby, which you can also
directly access via the Open Chat button below.
If you have a simple question, the community might be able to help already,
without you opening an issue. If you regularly use python-gitlab, we also
encourage you to join and participate. You might discover new ideas and
use cases yourself!
Documentation
-------------
The full documentation for CLI and API is available on `readthedocs
<http://python-gitlab.readthedocs.org/en/stable/>`_.
