gitlab-download-artifacts 1.4

gitlab-ci usage

When used in Gitlab CI a project / private token with api access will be required or user:pass specified in the url. Currently (Jan 2022) the CI Job Token doesn’t have enough api access to find the correct artifacts to download.

developer/desktop usage

If run from desktop the default browser will be used, however in this case an @<commit hash> cannot be used as the gitlab artifact urls don’t support this: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/api/job_artifacts.html#download-the-artifacts-archive

gitlab-download-artifacts options

To download build artifacts for the current git project, simply run the tool from within the project folder and refer to the job whose artifacts are needed, eg:

cd myproject
gitlab-download-artifacts . build

The artifacts from the build job are downloaded and extracted into the repo folder.

To download the artifacts for a submodule it can be used like:

gitlab-download-artifacts ./submodule build

The artifacts will be downloaded from the commit the submodule is checked out at and expanded into its folder.

Alternatively to just grab from a project page:

gitlab-download-artifacts https://gitlab.com/alelec/gitlab-download-artifacts@65ad5e1 release
