# gitlab.nvim

This Neovim plugin is designed to make it easy to review Gitlab MRs from within the editor. This means you can do things like:

- Create, approve, and merge MRs for the current branch
- Read and edit an MR description
- Add or remove reviewers and assignees
- Resolve, reply to, and unresolve discussion threads

To view these help docs and to get more detailed help information, please run `:h gitlab.nvim`

## Requirements

- Go >= v1.19

## Quick Start

1. Install Go
2. Add configuration (see Installation section)
3. Run `:lua require("gitlab").choose_merge_request()` or `:lua require("gitlab").review()` if already in review branch/worktree.

This will checkout the branch locally, and open the plugin's reviewer pane.

For more detailed information about the Lua APIs please run `:h gitlab.nvim.api`

## Installation

With Lazy:

```lua
return {
"harrisoncramer/gitlab.nvim",
dependencies = {
"MunifTanjim/nui.nvim",
"nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",
"sindrets/diffview.nvim",
"stevearc/dressing.nvim", -- Recommended but not required. Better UI for pickers.
"nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons" -- Recommended but not required. Icons in discussion tree.
},
enabled = true,
build = function () require("gitlab.server").build(true) end, -- Builds the Go binary
config = function()
require("gitlab").setup()
end,
}
```

And with Packer:

```lua
use {
"harrisoncramer/gitlab.nvim",
requires = {
"MunifTanjim/nui.nvim",
"nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",
"sindrets/diffview.nvim"
"stevearc/dressing.nvim", -- Recommended but not required. Better UI for pickers.
"nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons", -- Recommended but not required. Icons in discussion tree.
},
build = function()
require("gitlab.server").build()
end,
branch = "develop",
config = function()
require("diffview") -- We require some global state from diffview
local gitlab = require("gitlab")
gitlab.setup()
end,
}
```

## Connecting to Gitlab

This plugin requires an auth token to connect to Gitlab. The token can be set in the root directory of the project in a `.gitlab.nvim` environment file, or can be set via a shell environment variable called `GITLAB_TOKEN` instead. If both are present, the `.gitlab.nvim` file will take precedence.

Optionally provide a GITLAB_URL environment variable (or gitlab_url value in the `.gitlab.nvim` file) to connect to a self-hosted Gitlab instance. This is optional, use ONLY for self-hosted instances. Here's what they'd look like as environment variables:

```bash
export GITLAB_TOKEN="your_gitlab_token"
export GITLAB_URL="https://my-personal-gitlab-instance.com/"
```

And as a `.gitlab.nvim` file:

```
auth_token=your_gitlab_token
gitlab_url=https://my-personal-gitlab-instance.com/
```

The plugin will look for the `.gitlab.nvim` file in the root of the current project by default. However, you may provide a custom path to the configuration file via the `config_path` option. This must be an absolute path to the directory that holds your `.gitlab.nvim` file.

In case even more control over the auth config is needed, there is the possibility to override the `auth_provider` settings field. It should be
a function that returns the `token` as well as the `gitlab_url` value, and a nilable error. If the `gitlab_url` is `nil`, `https://gitlab.com` is used as default.

Here an example how to use a custom `auth_provider`:
```lua
require("gitlab").setup({
auth_provider = function()
return "my_token", "https://custom.gitlab.instance.url", nil
end,
}
```

For more settings, please see `:h gitlab.nvim.connecting-to-gitlab`

## Configuring the Plugin

The plugin expects you to call `setup()` and pass in a table of options. All of these values are optional, and if you call this function with no values the defaults will be used.

For a list of all these settings please run `:h gitlab.nvim.configuring-the-plugin` which will show you the help stored in [doc/gitlab.nvim.txt](doc/gitlab.nvim.txt).

## Keybindings

The plugin sets up a number of useful keybindings in the special buffers it creates, and some global keybindings as well. Refer to the relevant section of the manual `:h gitlab.nvim.keybindings` for more details.

For more information about each of these commands, and about the APIs in general, run `:h gitlab.nvim.api`
