🧹 GitLabracadabra 🧙

:alembic: Adds some magic to GitLab :crystal\_ball:

GitLab'racadabra is a GitOps way to configure a [GitLab](https://gitlab.com/) instance
from a YAML configuration, using the [API](https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/api/README.html).

It is able to create GitLab's [groups](doc/group.md), [projects](doc/project.md),
[users](doc/user.md) and [application settings](doc/application_settings.md).

:thumbsup: It's also able to mirror :

- Git repositories, using the `mirrors` parameter in [Mirroring repositories](doc/project.md#mirroring-repositories).
- container (Docker) images, using the `image_mirrors` parameter. See [Mirroring container images](doc/image_mirrors.md).
- packages, using the `package_mirrors` parameter. See [Mirroring packages](doc/package_mirrors.md).

It is based on [Python GitLab](https://github.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab).

## Installation

### Using Debian packages

Debian package is available [from artefacts](https://gitlab.com/gitlabracadabra/gitlabracadabra/-/jobs/artifacts/master/browse/debian/output?job=build-deb) and can be installed with:

```shell
apt install gitlabracadabra_*.deb

gitlabracadabra --verbose --dry-run
```

Note: Debian 10 buster or later is required.

### Using pip

```
pip install gitlabracadabra
```

### Using docker image

There are also [Docker/OCI images](https://gitlab.com/gitlabracadabra/gitlabracadabra/container_registry).

Example usage:

```shell
sudo docker run -ti \
  -v "$HOME/.python-gitlab.cfg:/home/gitlabracadabra/.python-gitlab.cfg:ro" \
  -v "$PWD/gitlabracadabra.yml:/app/gitlabracadabra.yml:ro" \
  registry.gitlab.com/gitlabracadabra/gitlabracadabra:v1.5.0 \
  --verbose --dry-run
```

Other images are available. Examples:

- `registry.gitlab.com/gitlabracadabra/gitlabracadabra/master`: Current `master`
- `registry.gitlab.com/gitlabracadabra/gitlabracadabra/master:a307c3aff01bccacc020b24d2ab39fc7a7d0df45`: A specific commit of `master`


### From source

Local installation (in `$HOME/.local`):

```shell
# On Debian >= 10 (buster) or Ubuntu >= 19.04
sudo apt install python3-jsonschema python3-gitlab python3-yaml python3-pygit2 python3-coverage python3-vcr
# On others
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Build, install and test
python3 setup.py build
python3 setup.py install --user
# python3 setup.py test
~/.local/bin/gitlabracadabra --verbose --dry-run
```

## Configuration

GitLabracadabra uses the same configuration file as Python GitLab CLI to store
connection parameters.

Example `~/.python-gitlab.cfg`:

```ini
[global]
default = gitlab

[gitlab]
url = https://gitlab.com
private_token = T0K3N
```

More information in [Python GitLab documentation](https://python-gitlab.readthedocs.io/en/stable/cli-usage.html#content).

## Action file(s)

GitLabracadabra *actions* are configured with a YAML file.

See [GitLabracadabra's own action file](https://gitlab.com/gitlabracadabra/gitlabracadabra/blob/master/gitlabracadabra.yml)
or read:

- [Action file syntax](doc/action_file.md)
- list of parameters:
  - [for projects](doc/project.md)
  - [for groups](doc/group.md)
  - [for users](doc/user.md)
  - [for application settings](doc/application_settings.md)

## Using gitlabracadabra in GitLab CI

Since job token probably won't have enough permissions, you'll need to use a personal access token:

- [create a personal access token](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/profile/personal_access_tokens.html#creating-a-personal-access-token)
- [Define](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/variables/README.html#create-a-custom-variable-in-the-ui) the
`GITLAB_PRIVATE_TOKEN` **protected** variable
- Use it in your jobs to configure `python-gitlab`. Example `.gitlab-ci.yml`:

```yaml
default:
  image:
    name: registry.gitlab.com/gitlabracadabra/gitlabracadabra:v1.5.0
    entrypoint: [""]
  before_script:
    - |
        cat << EOF > ~/.python-gitlab.cfg
        [global]
        default = gitlab
        [gitlab]
        url = ${CI_SERVER_URL:-https://gitlab.com}
        private_token = ${GITLAB_PRIVATE_TOKEN}
        # job_token = ${GITLAB_JOB_TOKEN}
        EOF

stages:
  - test
  - deploy

test:
  stage: test
  script:
    - gitlabracadabra --verbose --dry-run
  rules:
    - if: '$CI_COMMIT_BRANCH != "master"'

apply:
  stage: deploy
  script:
    - gitlabracadabra --verbose
  rules:
    - if: '$CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == "master"'
```

## Development

Configure `<WORKSPACE>/.vscode/launch.json`:

```json
{
    "configurations": [
        {
            "name": "Docker: Python - General",
            "type": "docker",
            "request": "launch",
            "preLaunchTask": "docker-run: debug",
            "python": {
                "pathMappings": [
                    {
                        "localRoot": "${workspaceFolder}",
                        "remoteRoot": "/app"
                    }
                ],
                "projectType": "general"
            }
        }
    ]
}
```

Configure `<WORKSPACE>/.vscode/tasks.json`:

```json
{
	"version": "2.0.0",
	"tasks": [
		{
			"type": "docker-build",
			"label": "docker-build",
			"platform": "python",
			"dockerBuild": {
				"tag": "gitlabracadabra:latest",
				"dockerfile": "${workspaceFolder}/Dockerfile",
				"context": "${workspaceFolder}",
				"pull": true
			}
		},
		{
			"type": "docker-run",
			"label": "docker-run: debug",
			"dependsOn": [
				"docker-build"
			],
			"dockerRun": {
				"network": "host"
			},
			"python": {
				"module": "gitlabracadabra.cli",
				"args": [ "-c <CONF_PATH>/.python-gitlab.cfg", "--dry-run",  "-g gitlab", "--debug", "--verbose","<CONF_PATH>/<ACTION_FILE>.yml"]
			}
		}
	]
}
```

NOTE: Docker Network `host` is important if you want to apply to a local gitlab.
