Overview

This node operation retrieves download URLs for a specific Conan package version hosted on GitLab. It is useful for users who want to programmatically access package download links for automation or integration purposes. For example, a developer can use this node to fetch download URLs for a package named 'my-package' version '1.0' under a specific user and channel to automate deployment or dependency management workflows.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetch download URLs for a Conan package 'my-package' version '1.0' under user 'my-group+my-project' and channel 'stable' from GitLab.
  2. Automate retrieval of package download links for integration into CI/CD pipelines.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure all path parameters (package_name, package_version, package_username, package_channel) are correctly provided and non-empty.
  • If authentication is required, verify that the GitLab API credentials are correctly configured and valid.
  • Check the baseUrl if using a self-hosted GitLab instance to ensure it is reachable.
  • Common error messages may include 404 Not Found if the package details are incorrect or 401 Unauthorized if authentication fails.
