gipea 0.11.2

A gitea python API wrapper

gipea

A very simple API client for Gitea > 1.16.1

Note that not the full Swagger-API is accessible. The whole implementation is focused on making access and working with Organizations, Teams, Repositories and Users as pain free as possible.

Originally forked from https://github.com/Langenfeld/py-gitea.

Usage

First get a gitea object wrapping access and authentication (via an api token) for your gitea instance:

from gitea import *

gitea = Gitea(URL, TOKEN)

Operations like requesting the Gitea version or authentication user can be requested directly from the gitea object:

print("Gitea Version: " + gitea.get_version())
print("API-Token belongs to user: " + gitea.get_user().username)

Adding entities like Users, Organizations, ... also is done via the gitea object.

user = gitea.create_user("Test Testson", "[e-mail]", "password")

All operations on entities in gitea are then accomplished via the according wrapper objects for those entities. Each of those objects has a .request method that creates an entity according to your gitea instance.

other_user = User.request(gitea, "OtherUserName")
print(other_user.username)

Note that the fields of the User, Organization,... classes are dynamically created at runtime, and thus not visible during divelopment. Refer to the Gitea-API documentation for the fields names.

Fields that can not be altered via gitea-api, are read only. After altering a field, the .commit method of the according object must be called to synchronize the changed fields with your gitea instance.

org = Organization.request(gitea, test_org)
org.description = "some new description"
org.location = "some new location"
org.commit()

An entity in gitea can be deleted by calling delete.

org.delete()

All entity objects do have methods to execute some of the requests possible though the gitea-api:

org = Organization.request(gitea, ORGNAME)
teams = org.get_teams()
for team in teams:
    repos = team.get_repos()
    for repo in repos:
        print(repo.name)

Installation

Use pip install gipea to install.

Tests

Tests can be run with:

make test

The default server credentials that will be used are: url = http://localhost:3000 and admin-user token located in .token.

These parameters can be overwritten with the env variables: GITEA_URL GITEA_TOKEN

The admin user must be named test, with email [e-mail].
