Never dreamt of creating and managing your GitLab projects from R? {gitlabr} is here to help you with that!
With {gitlabr}, you can interact with GitLab’s API to manage your projects, issues, merge requests, pipelines, wikis, and more.
Now, the automation of your regular tasks with GitLab is just a few lines of R code away.
You can install the most recent stable version from CRAN using:
To install the development version using devtools, type:
See the CONTRIBUTING.md for instructions on how to run tests locally and contributor information.
GitLab 11.6 or higher is generally recommended when using {gitlabr} version 2.0.0 or higher. This {gitlabr} version uses the GitLab API v4.
R code using {gitlabr} to perform some common GitLab actions can look like this
api
https://gitlab.com/-/profile/personal_access_tokensGITLAB_COM_TOKEN with usethis::edit_r_environ() and restart your sessionlibrary(gitlabr)
# You can verify your token works
# Sys.getenv("GITLAB_COM_TOKEN")
# connect as a fixed user to a GitLab instance for the session
set_gitlab_connection(
gitlab_url = "https://gitlab.com",
private_token = Sys.getenv("GITLAB_COM_TOKEN")
)max_page, otherwise the entire GitLab.com will be downloaded here…owned = FALSE to retrieve all projects except ours.# a tibble is returned, as is always by {gitlabr} functions

If an API request is not already available in {gitlabr}, function gitlab() allows to use any request of the GitLab API https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/api/.
For instance, the API documentation shows how to create a new project in https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/api/projects.html#create-project:
POSTprojectsname or path (if name not set)default_branch is an attribute that can be set if wanted, but not requiredThe corresponding use of gitlab() is:
Implement whatever suits your needs !
{gitlabr} can also be used to create a .gitlab-ci.yml file to test, build and check an R package, a bookdown, … using GitLab’s CI software. Use gitlabr::use_gitlab_ci() with a specific type in your project and your CI should be ready to start in the next commit.
There are pre-defined templates:
bookdown-production.yml
bookdown.yml
check-coverage-pkgdown-renv.yml
check-coverage-pkgdown.yml
vignette("a-gitlabr", package = "gitlabr")You’re welcome to contribute to {gitlabr} by editing the source code, adding more convenience functions, filing issues, etc. CONTRIBUTING.md compiles some information helpful in that process.
