Overview

This node operation performs a search for Conan packages within a specific GitLab project using the GitLab API. It is useful for developers or DevOps engineers who want to query Conan packages stored in a GitLab project's package registry. For example, it can be used to find packages matching a search query within a project by specifying the project ID and search term.

Use Case Examples

  1. Search for Conan packages in project ID '123' with query 'Hello*' to find all packages starting with 'Hello'.
  2. Use the node to automate package discovery in CI/CD pipelines by dynamically searching for package versions.
