It is useful for managing Conan package files such as conanfile.py, conanmanifest.txt, or conan_package.tgz within a project's package repository. Typical use cases include automating package file uploads during CI/CD pipelines or managing package versions programmatically.

Use Case Examples

  1. Uploading a new conanfile.py to a specific Conan package version in a GitLab project.
  2. Updating the conan_package.tgz file for a given package version and channel in a project repository.
