NAME¶

gcli snippets — manage GitLab snippets

SYNOPSIS¶

DESCRIPTION¶

Use gcli snippets to list, create, download or delete GitLab snippets. Without a subcommand specified, gcli snippets will list all of your own snippets.

OPTIONS¶

-l, --long

Print a long list instead of a short table.

-s, --sorted

Reverse the output such that most recent items appear at the bottom.

-n, --count n

Fetch at least n snippets. Setting n to -1 will fetch all snippets. Default: 30. Note that on users with many snippets fetching all snippets can take a considerable amount of time and may result in rate limiting by the GitLab API.

SUBCOMMANDS¶

delete

Delete a snippet.

get

Fetch the raw contents of the snippet.

EXAMPLES¶

List all of your snippets:

$ gcli -t gitlab snippets

Delete snippet with id 69420:

$ gcli -t gitlab snippets delete 69420

Print snippet with id 69420 into your pager:

$ gcli -t gitlab snippets get 69420 | $PAGER

SEE ALSO¶

BUGS¶

• This subcommand only works on GitLab. It is not implemented for GitHub, as GitHub Gists work differently.
• Creating snippets is currently unimplemented.
• There is no -y flag to ask the user whether he is sure about deleting a snippet.
