in my Github action I use a temporary variable for a timestamp and want to send this variable in a webhook, but github cant interpret the $var in string. Can someone pls help me?
The code looks like this:
- name: Posting Rocketchat
if: failure()
run: |
TS=$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S)
curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --data '{"text":"❌ Test: Leads Testing Desktop 💻","image_url":"https://myurl.net/$TS-1.png"}' https://chat.myurl.com/hooks/yxyxyxxyxyxyx/xxxxxyxyxyxyxyxyxy
Use instead
- name: Posting Rocketchat
if: failure()
run: |
echo "TS=$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S)" >> $GITHUB_ENV
curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --data '{"text":"❌ Test: Leads Testing Desktop 💻","image_url":"https://myurl.net/${{ env.TS }}-1.png"}' https://chat.myurl.com/hooks/yxyxyxxyxyxyx/xxxxxyxyxyxyxyxyxy
I'm using the Gitlab release API in the gitlab-ci.yml to be able to automatically create a new release when deploying.
Simply putting a curl request like here in the docs works just fine. For the description, the docs state that markdown is allowed, which is great. However, I can't seem to figure out or come up with an idea to load a description from a markdown file within the curl request. I've already tried storing the content of the markdown file in a variable in the gitlab-ci.yml prior to the curl and then pass it and expand it within the curl like so:
# gitlab-ci.yml
...
- DESCRIPTION=`cat ./description.md`
and also to just put the cat ./description.md in the curl request itself as the value of "description".
Here is the example from the docs:
curl --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: gDybLx3yrUK_HLp3qPjS" \
--data '{ "name": "New release", "tag_name": "v0.3", "description": "Super nice release", "milestones": ["v1.0", "v1.0-rc"], "assets": { "links": [{ "name": "hoge", "url": "https://google.com" }] } }' \
--request POST https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/24/releases
And for the "description" key I would like to pass the contents of a markdown file as the value.
I was surprised to not have found a post or discussion about this already, so I suspect I'm either missing something (very basic/obvious) or folks don't really use this function (yet)?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Using the variable like you, this .gitlab-ci.yml works :
create_release:
script:
- DESCRIPTION=$(cat description.md)
- |
curl --silent --request POST --header "Content-Type:application/json" \
--header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: TOKEN" \
--data '{"name":"New release","tag_name":"v0.3", "description":"'"$DESCRIPTION"'","assets":{"links":[{"name":"hoge","url":"https://google.com"}]}}' \
https://gitlab.bankassembly.com/api/v4/projects/369/releases
The variable is expanded inside double quote (see https://superuser.com/a/835589)
Example of the content of my description.md :
## CHANGELOG\r\n\r\n- Escape label and milestone titles to prevent XSS in GFM autocomplete. !2740\r\n- Prevent private snippets from being embeddable.\r\n- Add subresources removal to member destroy service.
I use GitLab on their servers. I would like to download my latest built artifacts (build via GitLab CI) via the API like this:
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: 9koXpg98eAheJpvBs5tK" "https://gitlab.com/api/v3/projects/1/builds/8/artifacts"
Where do I find this project ID? Or is this way of using the API not intended for hosted GitLab projects?
I just found out an even easier way to get the project id: just see the HTML content of the gitlab page hosting your project. There is an input with a field called project_id, e.g:
<input type="hidden" name="project_id" id="project_id" value="335" />
The latest version of GitLab 11.4 at the time of this writing now puts the Project ID at the top of the frontpage of your repository.
Screenshot:
On the Edit Project page there is a Project ID field in the top right corner.
(You can also see the ID on the CI/CD pipelines page, in the exameple code of the Triggers section.)
In older versions, you can see it on the Triggers page, in the URLs of the example code.
You can query for your owned projects:
curl -XGET --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: XXXX" "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects?owned=true"
You will receive JSON with each owned project:
[
{
"id":48,
"description":"",
"default_branch":"master",
"tag_list":[
...
You are also able to get the project ID from the triggers configuration in your project which already has some sample code with your ID.
From the Triggers page:
curl -X POST \
-F token=TOKEN \
-F ref=REF_NAME \
https://<GitLab Installation>/api/v3/projects/<ProjectID>/trigger/builds
As mentioned here, all the project scoped APIs expect either an ID or the project path (URL encoded).
So just use https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/gitlab-org%2Fgitlab-foss directly when you want to interact with a project.
Enter the project.
On the Left Hand menu click Settings -> General -> Expand General Settings
It has a label Project ID and is next to the project name.
This is on version GitLab 10.2
Provide the solution that actually solve the problem the api of getting the project id for specific gitlab project
curl -XGET -H "Content-Type: application/json" --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: $GITLAB_TOKEN" http://<YOUR-GITLAB-SERVER>/api/v3/projects/<YOUR-NAMESPACE>%2F<YOUR-PROJECT-NAME> | python -mjson.tool
Or maybe you just want the project id:
curl -XGET -H "Content-Type: application/json" --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: $GITLAB_TOKEN" http://<YOUR-GITLAB-SERVER>/api/v3/projects/<YOUR-NAMESPACE>%2F<YOUR-PROJECT-NAME> | python -c 'import sys, json; print(json.load(sys.stdin)["id"])'
Note that the repo url(namespace/repo name) is encoded.
If you know your project name, you can get the project id by using the following API:
curl --header "Private-Token: <your_token>" -X GET https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects?search=<exact_project_name>
This will return a JSON that includes the id:
[
{
"id":<project id>, ...
}
]
Just for the record, if someone else has the need to download artifacts from gitlab.com created via gitlab-ci
Create a private token within your browser
Get the project id via curl -XGET --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: YOUR_AD_HERE?" "https://gitlab.com/api/v3/projects/owned"
Download the last artifact from your master branch created via a gitlab-ci step called release curl -XGET --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: YOUR_AD_HERE?" -o myapp.jar "https://gitlab.com/api/v3/projects/4711/builds/artifacts/master/download?job=release"
I am very impressed about the beauty of gitlab.
You can view it under the repository name
You can query projects with search attribute e.g:
http://gitlab.com/api/v3/projects?private_token=xxx&search=myprojectname
As of Gitlab API v4, the following API returns all projects that you own:
curl --header 'PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_token>' 'https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects?owned=true'
The response contains project id. Gitlab access tokens can be created from this page- https://gitlab.com/profile/personal_access_tokens
No answer suits generic needs, the most similar is intended only for the gitlab site, not specific sites. This can be used to find the ID of the project streamer in the Gitlab server my-server.com, for example:
$ curl --silent --header 'Authorization: Bearer MY-TOKEN-XXXX' \
'https://my-server.com/api/v4/projects?per_page=100&simple=true'| \
jq -rc '.[]|select(.name|ascii_downcase|startswith("streamer"))'| \
jq .id
168
Remark that
this gives only the first 100 projects, if you have more, you should request the pages that follow (&page=2, 3, ...) or run a different API (e.g. groups/:id/projects).
jq is quite flexible. Here we're just filtering a project, you can do multiple things with it.
There appears to be no way to retrieve only the Project ID using the gitlab api. Instead, retrieve all the owner's projects and loop through them until you find the matching project, then return the ID. I wrote a script to get the project ID:
#!/bin/bash
projectName="$1"
namespace="$2"
default=$(sudo cat .namespace)
namespace="${namespace:-$default}"
json=$(curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: $(sudo cat .token)" -X GET
'https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects?owned=true' 2>/dev/null)
id=0
idMatch=0
pathWithNamespaceMatch=0
rowToMatch="\"$(echo "$namespace/$projectName" | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')\","
for row in $(echo "${json}" | jq -r '.'); do
[[ $idMatch -eq 1 ]] && { idMatch=0; id=${row::-1}; }
[[ $pathWithNamespaceMatch -eq 1 ]] && { pathWithNamespaceMatch=0; [[ "$row" == "$rowToMatch" ]] && { echo "$id"; return 0; } }
[[ ${row} == "\"path_with_namespace\":" ]] && pathWithNamespaceMatch=1
[[ ${row} == "\"id\":" ]] && idMatch=1
done
echo 'Error! Could not retrieve projectID.'
return 1
It expects the default namespace to be stored in a file .namespace and the private token to be stored in a file .token. For increased security, its best to run chmod 000 .token; chmod 000 .namespace; chown root .namespace; chown root .token
If your project name is unique, it is handy to follow the answer by shunya, search by name, refer API doc.
If you have stronger access token and the Gitlab contains a few same name projects within different groups, then search within group is more convenient. API doc here. e.g.
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" -X GET https://gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group_id>/search?scope=projects&search=<project_name>
The group ID can be found from the Settings page under the group domain.
And to fetch the project id from the output, you can do:
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" -X GET https://gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group_id>/search?scope=projects&search=<project_name> | jq '[0].id'
To get id from all projects, use:
curl --header 'PRIVATE-TOKEN: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' 'https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects?owned=true' > curloutput
grep -oPz 'name\":\".*?\"|{\"id\":[0-9]+' curloutput | sed 's/{\"/\n/g' | sed 's/name//g' |sed 's/id\"://g' |sed 's/\"//g' | sort -u -n
Not Specific to question, but somehow reached here, might help others
I used chrome to get a project ID
Go to the desired project example gitlab.com/username/project1
Inspect network tab
see the first garphql request in network tab
You can search for the project path
curl -s 'https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects?search=my/path/to/my/project&search_namespaces=true' --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: $GITLAB_TOKEN" |python -mjson.tool |grep \"id\"
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/api/projects.html
Which will only match your project and will not find other unnecessary projects
My favorite method is to pull from the CI/CD pipeline so on build it dynamically assigns the project id.
Simply assign a variable in your code to = CI_PROJECT_ID
I want to upload my APK to Saucelabs, How can I do that?
Is there any tab do so ?
I am trying with Curl command as well, which is not working for me
Yes, U have to use curl command correctly.
Use below Link to download curl :
http://curl.haxx.se/download.html
After that use below curl command :
curl -u YOUR_SAUCE_USERNAME:YOUR_SAUCE_ACCESS_KEY -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" https://saucelabs.com/rest/v1/storage/YOUR_SAUCE_USERNAME/YOUR_ANDROID_APP.apk
I need to create a Team repository usign Bitbucket's API.
To create a user repository I use to do so:
$ curl -k -X POST -u username:passwd "https://api.bitbucket.org/1.0/repositories" -d "name=myrep"
How would I do the same but for a team?
This explains how it works with the repositories endpoint of API 2:
$ team=myteam
$ repo=repository
$ curl -X POST -v -u username:password -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/${team}/${repo} \
-d '{"scm": "git", "is_private": "true", "fork_policy": "no_public_forks" }'
The difference from API 1 regarding how the data (-d) is handled is that API2 uses JSON format.
