Snippets¶
You can store code snippets in Gitlab. Snippets can be attached to projects (see Project snippets), but can also be detached.
- Object class:
gitlab.objects.Namespace
- Manager object:
gitlab.Gitlab.snippets
Examples¶
List snippets woned by the current user:
snippets = gl.snippets.list()
List the public snippets:
public_snippets = gl.snippets.public()
Get a snippet:
snippet = gl.snippets.get(snippet_id)
# get the content
content = snippet.raw()
Warning
Blobs are entirely stored in memory unless you use the streaming feature. See the artifacts example.
Create a snippet:
snippet = gl.snippets.create({'title': 'snippet1',
'file_name': 'snippet1.py',
'content': open('snippet1.py').read()})
Update a snippet:
snippet.visibility_level = gitlab.Project.VISIBILITY_PUBLIC
snippet.save()
Delete a snippet:
gl.snippets.delete(snippet_id)
# or
snippet.delete()
