Readme
Managed API for GitLab is an API Client for GitLab by Adaptavist primarily designed for the use in Stitch It. You can read more about Managed APIs here.
This is a runtime agnostic version of the Managed API (with core
suffix) that makes it easy to port it to any runtime you may want to use this Managed API on.
While the primary reason for creating Managed APIs was to use them in Stitch It runtime, then you can easily port them to any runtime of your choosing.
You can do so by extending the *Core
Managed API class where you'll be asked to provide implementation for getPlatformImplementation
function. In this implementation you have to specify how to perform buffer encoding/decoding operations and how to perform HTTP calls:
{
buffer: {
encode(input: string): ArrayBuffer;
decode(input: ArrayBuffer): string;
},
performHttpCall(request: Request): Promise<Response>
}
Here is an example how to create a Node port of the Managed API:
import { GitlabApiCore, Request, Response, Headers } from "@managed-api/gitlab-core";
import { PlatformImplementation } from "@managed-api/commons-core";
import fetch from "node-fetch";
export class GitlabApi extends GitlabApiCore {
constructor(private baseUrl: string, private authToken: string) {
super();
}
protected getPlatformImplementation(): PlatformImplementation {
return {
buffer: {
encode: (input) => Buffer.from(input, 'utf-8'),
decode: (input) => Buffer.from(input).toString('utf-8')
},
performHttpCall: (request) => this.performHttpCall(request)
};
}
private async performHttpCall(request: Request): Promise<Response> {
const requestUrl = `${this.baseUrl}${request.url}`; // Substitute base URL
request.headers.set('Authorization', `Basic ${this.authToken}`); // Substitute auth token
const response = await fetch(requestUrl, {
method: request.method,
headers: request.headers as any,
body: request.method.toLowerCase() !== 'get' ? Buffer.from((await request.arrayBuffer()) ?? new ArrayBuffer(0)) : undefined
});
const apiHeaders = new Headers();
response.headers.forEach((value, key) => apiHeaders.append(key, value));
const body = await response.arrayBuffer();
return super.buildResponse(response.url, response.status, response.statusText, apiHeaders, body);
}
}
Please note that the authentication handling details may not be accurate and serve as an example. If you wish yo use these Managed APIs without having to concern yourself how to deal with and secure authentication details when working with APIs, then feel free to evaluate Stitch It platform.
At this time Managed APIs are unlicensed and close sourced, but feel free to drop an email to eknoll@adaptavist.com for ideas, suggestions and improvements.
