Overview

This node operation allows uploading Conan package files to a specific project in GitLab using the GitLab API. It is useful for automating the process of managing Conan packages within GitLab projects, especially for CI/CD pipelines or package management workflows. For example, it can be used to upload a new version of a Conan package to a project repository, specifying package details such as name, version, username, and channel.

Use Case Examples

  1. Uploading a Conan package version '1.0' named 'my-package' to a GitLab project with ID '123', under the username 'my-group+my-project' and channel 'stable'.
  2. Automating package uploads in a CI pipeline to keep project dependencies up to date.
