GiteaInstall

Overview

This node interacts with the Gitea API to list subscribers (watchers) of a specific repository. It is useful for scenarios where you want to retrieve and process information about users who are watching a repository, such as for analytics, notifications, or integrations that depend on subscriber data.

For example, you might use this node to:

• Generate reports on repository popularity by counting subscribers.
• Trigger workflows when new subscribers are detected.
• Sync subscriber lists with other systems.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the list of subscribers to the specified repository. Each item in the output array corresponds to a subscriber object containing details such as username, user ID, and possibly other metadata provided by the Gitea API.

No binary data output is involved.

Dependencies

• Requires an active connection to a Gitea instance via its API.
• Needs an API authentication token configured in the node credentials to authorize requests.
• The base URL of the Gitea server must be set in the credentials.

Troubleshooting

• Authentication errors: Ensure the API token is valid and has sufficient permissions to access repository subscriber data.
• Invalid owner or repo: Verify that the owner and repository names are correct and that the authenticated user has access.
• Pagination issues: If no results appear, check that the Page and Limit parameters are set correctly; pages start at 1.
• Network errors: Confirm that the Gitea server URL is reachable from the n8n environment.
