Overview

This node operation retrieves the digest information of a specific Conan package version from a GitLab project using the GitLab API. It is useful for developers and DevOps engineers who manage Conan packages in GitLab and need to verify or inspect package digests for version control, security, or deployment purposes. For example, it can be used to automate the validation of package integrity before deployment.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve the digest of a Conan package version '1.0' named 'my-package' in a project with ID '123' to verify its integrity before deployment.
  2. Automate the process of fetching package digests for auditing and compliance in a CI/CD pipeline.
