⛔️ DEPRECATED/UNMAINTAINED

Caution

This old thing served its purpose dutifully and without complaint, but the time where it was useful has long since passed. GitLab has better label support these days... plus I switched to GitHub 🙃

This tool will help propagate into the repos of your choice those nice shiny new GitLab global admin labels you worked so hard on. See below.

This was built to address these issues with GitLab.

Installation

npm install -g gitlab-fix-labels

Usage

General command syntax:

gitlab-fix-labels GITLAB_API_STARTPOINT_URI YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN YOUR_ACTION YOUR_TARGET

Possible actions:

add - add your admin labels to your target repo(s); existing labels will not be touched; any duplicates will be skipped.

delete - completely and utterly delete all of a repository's labels.

replace - the same as calling delete followed by add.

Your target:

The target must either be the string all (case sensitive) or an integer larger than 0.

Examples

gitlab-fix-labels https://git.mysite.org/api/v4 myspecial_tokenhere add 10
gitlab-fix-labels https://newgitlab.com/api/v5 my2ndspecial_tokenhere delete all
gitlab-fix-labels http://git.lol/api/v4/ myotherspecial_tokenhere replace all
gitlab-fix-labels http://git.lol/api/v5/ special_token2 replace 555

To completely replace the labels on one project with your custom admin global defaults (set in the administrator area of GitLab):

gitlab-fix-labels GITLAB_API_STARTPOINT_URI YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN replace YOUR_TARGET

To completely replace the labels on ALL projects with your global admin defaults:

gitlab-fix-labels GITLAB_API_STARTPOINT_URI YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN replace all

To append your global admin defaults to ALL projects (not deleting existing labels):

gitlab-fix-labels GITLAB_API_STARTPOINT_URI YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN add all
