gt-tools
CLI tools for interacting with the Gitea API. Use interactively to talk to your Gitea instance, or automatically via a CI/CD pipeline.
Usage
Usage: gt-tools --url <GITEA_URL> --repo <REPO> <COMMAND>
Commands:
list-releases
create-release
upload-release
help Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)
Options:
-u, --url <GITEA_URL> [env: GTTOOL_GITEA_URL=]
-r, --repo <REPO> [env: GTTOOL_FQRN=]
-h, --help Print help
-V, --version Print version
Authentication
Authentication is token-based via environment variable RELEASE_KEY_GITEA.
Ensure your token has the appropriate access for your usage. This depends on what you're doing and how your Gitea instance is configured, so you'll have to figure it out for yourself.
Most likely, you will need a token with "repository: read-and-write" permissions. See Gitea's documentation on token scopes for more.
<GITEA_URL>:
The Gitea server URL must be provided with --url or -u on the command line, or via the environment variable GTTOOL_GITEA_URL. Use the base URL for your Gitea instance.
E.g.: Using the Gitea org's demo instance, it would be: --url "https://demo.gitea.com/"
<REPO>:
The repository name must be provided with --repo or -u on the command line, or via the environment variable GTTOOL_GITEA_FQRN ("fully qualified repo name"). Use the format <owner>/<repo>, which is the route immediately following the GITEA_URL base. This is how GitHub and Gitea identify repos in the URL, and how Golang locates it's modules, so this tool does the same.
E.g.: --repo "go-gitea/gitea" would name the Gitea repo belonging to the go-gitea organization.
