# GitLab client-go (former `github.com/xanzy/go-gitlab`)

A GitLab API client enabling Go programs to interact with GitLab in a simple and uniform way.

## Usage

```go
import "gitlab.com/gitlab-org/api/client-go"
```

Construct a new GitLab client, then use the various services on the client to
access different parts of the GitLab API. For example, to list all
users:

```go
git, err := gitlab.NewClient("yourtokengoeshere")
if err != nil {
  log.Fatalf("Failed to create client: %v", err)
}
users, _, err := git.Users.ListUsers(&gitlab.ListUsersOptions{})
```

There are a few `With...` option functions that can be used to customize
the API client. For example, to set a custom base URL:

```go
git, err := gitlab.NewClient("yourtokengoeshere", gitlab.WithBaseURL("https://git.mydomain.com/api/v4"))
if err != nil {
  log.Fatalf("Failed to create client: %v", err)
}
users, _, err := git.Users.ListUsers(&gitlab.ListUsersOptions{})
```

Some API methods have optional parameters that can be passed. For example,
to list all projects for user "svanharmelen":

```go
git := gitlab.NewClient("yourtokengoeshere")
opt := &gitlab.ListProjectsOptions{Search: gitlab.Ptr("svanharmelen")}
projects, _, err := git.Projects.ListProjects(opt)
```

### Examples

The [examples](/examples) directory
contains a couple for clear examples, of which one is partially listed here as well:

```go
package main

import (
	"log"

	"gitlab.com/gitlab-org/api/client-go"
)

func main() {
	git, err := gitlab.NewClient("yourtokengoeshere")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("Failed to create client: %v", err)
	}

	// Create new project
	p := &gitlab.CreateProjectOptions{
		Name:                     gitlab.Ptr("My Project"),
		Description:              gitlab.Ptr("Just a test project to play with"),
		MergeRequestsAccessLevel: gitlab.Ptr(gitlab.EnabledAccessControl),
		SnippetsAccessLevel:      gitlab.Ptr(gitlab.EnabledAccessControl),
		Visibility:               gitlab.Ptr(gitlab.PublicVisibility),
	}
	project, _, err := git.Projects.CreateProject(p)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	// Add a new snippet
	s := &gitlab.CreateProjectSnippetOptions{
		Title:           gitlab.Ptr("Dummy Snippet"),
		FileName:        gitlab.Ptr("snippet.go"),
		Content:         gitlab.Ptr("package main...."),
		Visibility:      gitlab.Ptr(gitlab.PublicVisibility),
	}
	_, _, err = git.ProjectSnippets.CreateSnippet(project.ID, s)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
}
```
