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).
As of 3.0.0, python-gitlab is compatible with Python 3.7+.
Use pip to install the latest stable version of python-gitlab:
$ pip install --upgrade python-gitlabThe current development version is available on both GitHub.com and GitLab.com, and can be installed directly from the git repository:
$ pip install git+https://github.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab.gitFrom GitLab:
$ pip install git+https://gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab.gitpython-gitlab provides Docker images in two flavors, based on the Alpine and Debian slim
python base images. 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-alpineregistry.gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab:v3.2.0-slim-bullseye
You can run the Docker image directly from the GitLab registry:
$ docker run -it --rm registry.gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab:latest <command> ...For example, to get a project on GitLab.com (without authentication):
$ docker run -it --rm registry.gitlab.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab:latest project get --id gitlab-org/gitlab
