# GitLab Automation Tool
Automation tool for GitLab that allows the programmatic creation of branches and tags using the GitLab API.
## 🚀 Features
- Automatic branch creation
- Tag management with customized messages
- Secure handling of credentials through environment variables
- Modular and easily extensible structure
## 📋 Prerequisites
- Python 3.8 or higher
- GitLab access token with sufficient permissions
- GitLab project ID
## 🔧 Installation
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/leiberbertel/gitlab_automation
cd gitlab-automation
```
2. Create a virtual environment (recommended):
```bash
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate # En Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
```
3. Install the dependencies:
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
4. Set the environment variables:
- Copy the `.env.example` file to `.env`.
- Edit `.env` with your actual values.
```bash
cp .env.example .env
```
## ⚙️ Configuration
Be sure to set the following environment variables in your `.env` file:
```plaintext
GITLAB_URL=https://gitlab.com
GITLAB_PRIVATE_TOKEN=your-token-private
GITLAB_PROJECT_ID=your-project-id
```
You can also set these variables directly on your system:
```bash
export GITLAB_URL=https://gitlab.com
export GITLAB_PRIVATE_TOKEN=your-token-private
export GITLAB_PROJECT_ID=your-project-id
```
## 🖥️ Usage
### Run the main script
```bash
python main.py
```
### Use the classes in your own code
```python
from src.gitlab_client import GitLabClient
from src.branch_manager import BranchManager
from src.tag_manager import TagManager
# Initialize the client
client = GitLabClient(gitlab_url, private_token)
# Create a branch
branch_manager = BranchManager(client)
branch_manager.create_branch(project_id, 'feature/new-feature', 'main')
# Create a tag
tag_manager = TagManager(client)
tag_manager.create_tag(project_id, 'v1.0.0', 'main', 'First stable version')
```
## 🧪 Tests
To run the tests:
```bash
pytest
```
