Sublime Gitlab Integrate

This is a Sublime Text 2/3 Plugin that integrates various Gitlab features (primarily dealing with issue management, currently) into the editor.

Installation

There are 3 ways to install:

  • With Package Control installed:

    1. (Recommended) Simply search for "Gitlab Integrate" in the "Install Package" menu and select it
  • Without Package Control:

    1. Clone this repository into [your Sumblime installation directory]/Packages/
    2. Clone/download this repo wherever you'd like, then copy the files in it to [your Sublime installation directory]/Packages/GitlabIntegrate

Once installed, the plugin can be activated with cmd+shift+x (Mac) or ctrl+shift+x (Win/Linux).

Configuration

Before using GitlabIntegrate, you should configure the User Settings file. If you do not, the introduction document will appear and prompt you to do so. User settings can be found 3 ways (you may need to create the file if it doesn't exist):

  1. Via the menu at

    Preferences -> Package Settings -> Gitlab Integrate -> Settings - User

  2. Via the menu at

    Tools -> Gitlab Integrate -> Access User Settings

  3. Via file browser at

    [sublime installation directory]/Packages/User/GitlabIntegrate.sublime-settings

Then, copy and paste the following text into the file (replacing any text already there). Be sure to edit the project_host and user_token fields:

{
	//The project host
	"project_host":"",

	//Your user token for GitLab, found in [host]/profile/account 
	"user_token":"",	

	//Displays the new installation window
	"display_intro":false,

	//The name of the tab when using Edit Issue In Tab (note: if you open another tab with this name, weird things might happen)
	"edit_issue_in_tab_name": "[GLI]: Editing Issue",

	//Suppresses output of closed issues for the Select Issue command
	"hide_closed_issues":false,

	//Appears before all GitlabIntegrate outputs in the console and status bar
	"output_prefix":"[GLI]:",

	/*
	The default project ID.
	This can be found by running GitlabIntegrate's "Get Project IDs" command after configuring 
	your host and user_token. All the projects you have access to should be listed with their IDs.
	*/
	"project_id": 0	

	//set to false if you want to use HTTPS with a self-signed certificate
	"verify_ssl":true
}

Usage

GitlabIntegrate functions can be accessed via the menu (Tools -> GitlabIntegrate), with a keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+X on Windows/Linux, Cmd+Shift+X on Mac), or via the Command Palette (default: Cmd+Shift+P on Mac, Ctrl+Shift+P on Windows/Linux). All GLI commands in the command palette begin with "GLI:".

Edit Issue In Tab: This mode opens the selected issue for editing in a separate view. To save your changes, simply close the tab.

Command Arguments: When entering a command through the status/input bar, arguments must be comma-separated. All potential arguments are listed to the left of the input box within parentheses. Arguments in square brackets ([]) are optional.

Optional and Keyword Arguments: Optional arguments may be specified as keyword arguments by prepending the argument value with its name and an unescaped equals sign (E.g., to create a new issue called "test_issue" and assign it to the user "robert" without specifying a description, you would type test_issue, assign_to=username into the Create Issue input box). If no keywords are specified, the arguments are processed left to right. With the exception of labels, every argument is represented by its keyword in the prompt.

Special Notes on Arguments:

  • Labels:

    • The keyword for labels is labels

    • If specifying more than one label, you must quote the whole list (e.g., for the Add Label(s) to Issue command for the issue #10 you would type: 10, "first_label, second_label" or 10, labels="first_label, second_label")

    • If you only specify one label, it does not matter whether you quote it or not.

    • Specifying labels in the Edit Issue command will replace all current labels. Explicitly specifying no labels (e.g. labels=, or labels="",) will remove all labels from the issue.

  • Assign_to: Users may be idenified by username or user_id (if you happen to know their id). GLI will automatically detect which method you've used.

  • Escaped Characters: commas (,), equals signs (=), and double quotes (") in titles/descriptions must be escaped with a backslash (\). Only double quotes must be escaped in the Edit Issue In View mode.
