gitlab-x

GitLab Executor

Prequesities

To use this tool, it is required to have a GitLab account somewhere. In the GitLab, a personal access token needs to be created. The respective page can be found under https://<gitlab.domain.com>/profile/personal_access_tokens. Enter a name for your new access token and check the api box. If only read-only access is desired, read_api is sufficient. Keep the access token safe as it will only be displayed once.

GITLAB_AT can be used to provide the access token GITLAB_URL can be used to provide the base url of the GitLab

-u or --url followed by the GitLab URL -t or --access-token followed by the access token
