go-gitee

go-gitee is a Go client library for accessing the [Gitee API v5][].

go-gitee requires Go version 1.7 or greater.

Usage

The go-gitee library does not directly handle authentication. Instead, whencreating a new client, pass an http.Client that can handle authentication foryou. The easiest and recommended way to do this is using the oauth2library, but you can always use any other library that provides anhttp.Client. If you have an OAuth2 access token (for example, a personalAPI token), you can use it with the oauth2 library using:

import "golang.org/x/oauth2"import "github.com/weilaihui/go-gitee/gitee"ctx := context.Background()conf := &oauth2.Config{    ClientID:     "{ClientID}",    ClientSecret: "{ClientSecret}",    Scopes:       "{Scopes}",    Endpoint: oauth2.Endpoint{        AuthURL:  "https://gitee.com/oauth/auth",        TokenURL: "https://gitee.com/oauth/token",    },}token,err := conf.PasswordCredentialsToken(ctx,"{username}","{password}")tp := gitee.OAuthTransport{	Token: token,}client := gitee.NewClient(tp.Client())user, _, err := client.Users.Get(ctx, "")if err != nil {	fmt.Printf("\nerror: %v\n", err)	return}fmt.Printf("\n%v\n", gitee.Stringify(user))fmt.Printf("\n%v\n", *user.Login)

The services of a client divide the API into logical chunks and correspond tothe structure of the Gitee API documentation athttps://gitee.com/api/v5/swagger.

Accepted Status

Some endpoints may return a 202 Accepted status code, meaning that theinformation required is not yet ready and was scheduled to be gathered onthe GitHub side. Methods known to behave like this are documented specifyingthis behavior.

To detect this condition of error, you can check if its type is*gitee.AcceptedError:

stats, _, err := client.Repositories.ListContributorsStats(ctx, org, repo)if _, ok := err.(*gitee.AcceptedError); ok {	log.Println("scheduled on Gitee side")}

Creating and Updating Resources

All structs for Gitee resources use pointer values for all non-repeated fields.This allows distinguishing between unset fields and those set to a zero-value.Helper functions have been provided to easily create these pointers for string,bool, and int values. For example:

// create a new private repository named "foo"repo := &gitee.Repository{	Name:    gitee.String("foo"),	Private: gitee.Bool(true),}client.Repositories.Create(ctx, "", repo)

Users who have worked with protocol buffers should find this pattern familiar.

Pagination

All requests for resource collections (repos, pull requests, issues, etc.)support pagination. Pagination options are described in thegitee.ListOptions struct and passed to the list methods directly or as anembedded type of a more specific list options struct (for examplegitee.PullRequestListOptions). Pages information is available via thegitee.Response struct.

client := gitee.NewClient(nil)opt := &gitee.RepositoryListByOrgOptions{	ListOptions: gitee.ListOptions{PerPage: 10},}// get all pages of resultsvar allRepos []*gitee.Repositoryfor {	repos, resp, err := client.Repositories.ListByOrg(ctx, "gitee", opt)	if err != nil {		return err	}	allRepos = append(allRepos, repos...)	if resp.NextPage == 0 {		break	}	opt.Page = resp.NextPage}

Integration Tests

You can run integration tests from the test directory. See the integration tests README.

Roadmap

This library is being initially developed by go-github,so API methods will likely be implemented like go-github.You can track the status of implementation ingo-github. Eventually, I would like to cover the entireGitee API, so contributions are of course always welcome. Thecalling pattern is pretty well established, so adding new methods is relativelystraightforward.
