prefect_gitlab.repositories

Integrations with GitLab. The GitLab class in this collection is a storage block that lets Prefect agents pull Prefect flow code from GitLab repositories. The GitLab block is ideally configured via the Prefect UI, but can also be used in Python as the following examples demonstrate. Examples: 
    from prefect_gitlab.repositories import GitLabRepository

    # public GitLab repository
    public_gitlab_block = GitLabRepository(
        name="my-gitlab-block",
        repository="https://gitlab.com/testing/my-repository.git"
    )

    public_gitlab_block.save()


    # specific branch or tag of a GitLab repository
    branch_gitlab_block = GitLabRepository(
        name="my-gitlab-block",
        reference="branch-or-tag-name"
        repository="https://gitlab.com/testing/my-repository.git"
    )

    branch_gitlab_block.save()


    # private GitLab repository
    private_gitlab_block = GitLabRepository(
        name="my-private-gitlab-block",
        repository="https://gitlab.com/testing/my-repository.git",
        access_token="YOUR_GITLAB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN"
    )

    private_gitlab_block.save()

get_directory 

get_directory(self, from_path: Optional[str] = None, local_path: Optional[str] = None) -> None
