Overview

This node operation retrieves download URLs for a specific Conan package version from a GitLab project. It is useful for automating the process of accessing package download links in CI/CD pipelines or package management workflows within GitLab projects. For example, a developer can use this node to programmatically fetch download URLs for a Conan package to integrate with build or deployment scripts.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetch download URLs for a Conan package version in a GitLab project to automate package retrieval in a CI pipeline.
  2. Retrieve package download URLs to verify package availability or to trigger downstream deployment processes.

Properties

Name Meaning
Skip Authentication Whether to skip authentication when making the API request.

Output

JSON

  • download_urls - List of URLs to download the specified Conan package version from the GitLab project.

Dependencies

  • GitLab API authentication token or credentials

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure all required path parameters (project ID, package name, version, username, channel, and package reference) are correctly provided to avoid 404 or parameter errors.
  • If authentication is enabled, verify that the GitLab API token has sufficient permissions to access the project and package data.
  • Check the baseUrl if using a self-hosted GitLab instance to ensure the URL is correct and accessible.
