A Python library (written in Rust) designed for CI tools to easily submit feedback on a git server.

A Python library (written in Rust) designed for CI tools to easily submit feedback on a git server.

Feedback on a git server using this library can be in the form of

• thread comments (for a PR or commit)

• setting output variables for other CI tools to consume

• append a summary comment to a CI workflow run’s summary page

• mark the start and end of a group of log statements (in the CI workflow run’s logs)

• files annotations

• Pull Request reviews

• get a list of changed files in a PR or commit (including line numbers shown in the diff)

This uses async functions to access network resources. Thus, an asyncio event loop is required.

Supported git servers

Initially, this project is designed to work with GitHub. But the API is designed to easily add support for other git servers. The following is just a list of git servers that are planned (in order or priority).

• GitHub

• GitLab

• Gitea

• BitBucket

LGPL license

This project is licensed under LGPL-3.0-or-later.

Since this library ultimately requires write access to users’ projects (to allow posting comments), it could easily be modified with malicious intent.

By using the LGPL-3.0-or-later license, we can offer some assurance and help safeguard end-users’ data/privacy because the following conditions must be met:

• the source code is publicly available

• any redistributed forms must state their modifications (if any)
