Overview

This node operation retrieves a specific PyPi package file from a GitLab group using the file's SHA256 checksum and file identifier. It is useful for automating the download or verification of PyPi package files stored in GitLab groups, especially in CI/CD pipelines or package management workflows.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetch a PyPi package file by its SHA256 checksum and file identifier to verify package integrity.
  2. Automate retrieval of PyPi package files from a GitLab group for deployment or analysis.

Output

JSON

  • response - The JSON response containing the PyPi package file data retrieved from the GitLab API.

Dependencies
