gt 0.2.9

No project description provided

Goals

To provide a simple tool for quickly creating private git repos ‘in the cloud’ wherever that may be.

Installation

Requires python 3.

pip3 install gt should do the trick, or else python setup.py install from source.

Usage

Create ~/.gtrc and populate it with sections of the following form

[<source name>]
type=<git source>
<param1>=<val1>
<param2>=<val2>

where <git source> indicates the source type.

Supported sources at the time of writing include: - gitlab (the service) - ssh (An ssh-able Unix box containing a directory full of repos)

Examples

~/.gtrc

[ s1 ]
type=ssh
host=dionysus
user=rvaiya
project_dir=/storage/projects

[ gl ]
type=gitlab
api_token=a734d981ddda8

CLI Usage

# gt -l

s1/project1
s1/project2
gl/projecta
gl/projectb

# gt -c s1/project3

Successfully created s1/project3
git remote add origin ssh://rvaiya@dionysus:/storage/projects/project3

# gt -d gl/projecta

Successfully deleted gl/projecta

# gt --clone gl/projecta

Bugs/Limitations

The tool is designed to handle as many git sources as possible and so only supports primitive operations (i.e add/remove/delete). Since it is primarily intended for personal use it does not support sophisticated project or permission management features which are commonly found on proprietary collaboration platforms like github.

There will be bugs.

Extensibility

Adding a source should be as simple as creating a python file in gt/sources and defining a class with the following methods:

• list()
• delete(name)
• create(name)

The class name serves as the source type and its constructor’s parameter names are drawn from the relevant section of the config file when instantiating the object.

It is worth noting that the project began life as a bash script and was partly rewritten as an exercise in python by the author. As such things may not be optimally ‘pythonic’ :). If you bother to read the code and invariably feel the need to abuse the person who wrote it, know that such sentiments will be happily received at [e-mail].
