tanuki v0.0.1 Tanuki

Tanuki

At this moment this wrapper is a work in progress!

To use this library you’ll need your private token for your gitlab instance, or from gitlab. This can be found at profile/account

Some functions are only to be used by admins.

Let’s get started! :)

iex> Tanuki.Client.new(“T0k3n_H3r3”, “https://yourinstance.tld/api/v3/”) %Tanuki.Client{endpoint: “https://yourinstance.tld/api/v3/”, private_token: “T0k3n_H3r3”}

iex> Tanuki.Client.new(“T0k3n_H3r3”) # Default is GitLab.com %Tanuki.Client{endpoint: “https://gitlab.com/api/v3/”, private_token: “T0k3n_H3r3”}

With the returned client you can make requests to the endpoint specified.

Issues an HTTP request with the given method to the given url.

This function is usually used indirectly by get/3, post/4, put/4, etc

Args:

  • method - HTTP method as an atom (:get, :head, :post, :put, :delete, etc.)
  • url - target url as a binary string or char list
  • body - request body. See more below
  • headers - HTTP headers as an orddict (e.g., [{"Accept", "application/json"}])
  • options - Keyword list of options

Body:

  • binary, char list or an iolist
  • {:form, [{K, V}, ...]} - send a form url encoded
  • {:file, "/path/to/file"} - send a file

Options:

  • :timeout - timeout to establish a connection, in milliseconds. Default is 8000
  • :recv_timeout - timeout used when receiving a connection. Default is 5000
  • :stream_to - a PID to stream the response to
  • :proxy - a proxy to be used for the request; it can by a regular url or a {Host, Proxy} tuple
  • :proxy_auth - proxy authentication {User, Password} tuple
  • :ssl - SSL options supported by the ssl erlang module
  • :follow_redirect - a boolean that causes redirects to be followed
  • :max_redirect - an integer denoting the maximum number of redirects to follow

Timeouts can be an integer or :infinity

This function returns {:ok, response} or {:ok, async_response} if the request is successful, {:error, reason} otherwise.

Examples

request(:post, "https://my.website.com", "{\"foo\": 3}", [{"Accept", "application/json"}])
request!(method, url, body \\ "", headers \\ [], options \\ [])

Specs

request!(atom, binary, binary, headers, Keyword.t) :: HTTPoison.Response.t

Issues an HTTP request with the given method to the given url, raising an exception in case of failure.

request!/5 works exactly like request/5 but it returns just the response in case of a successful request, raising an exception in case the request fails.
