Python-GitLab

We include a basic GitLab API wrapper class in this library. We will include specific API wrapper functions in the future. Our wrapper class and specific wrappers were created when python-gitlab was in a much earlier state, so we continued to use our wrapper instead of switching to python-gitlab

For generic requests to the GitLab API, our wrapper is more lightweight than python-gitlab, but python-gitlab is a great option for more complex API scripts
