        GitLab Auto MR
        ==============
        
        This script is meant to be used in GitLab CI to automatically open Merge
        Requests for feature branches, if there is none yet. This project
        provides a docker image you can use for ease of use, but also a Python
        library.
        
        It is based on the script and idea of `Riccardo Padovani <https://rpadovani.com>`_,
        which he introduced with his blog post
        `How to automatically create new MR on Gitlab with Gitlab CI <https://rpadovani.com/open-mr-gitlab-ci>`_.
        
        This is a simple Python script that allows you create MR in GitLab automatically. It is intended to be used in CI/CD
        as a Docker image. However you can use it as a separate Python library if you would like.
        An example CI using this can be found `here <https://gitlab.com/hmajid2301/stegappasaurus/blob/master/.gitlab-ci.yml>`_.

        Thanks for providing this.
        
        This package was intended to be used by GitLab CI hence using environments provided by the GitLab CI. You can however
        use it as a CLI tool if you would like.
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        First you need to create a personal access token,
        `more information here <https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/profile/personal_access_tokens.html>`_.
        With the scope ``api``, so it can create the MR using your API.
        
        ``pip install gitlab-auto-mr``
        
        .. code-block::

        GitLab CI
        *********
        
        ``GITLAB_PRIVATE_TOKEN`` Set a secret variable in your GitLab project with your private token. Name it
        GITLAB_PRIVATE_TOKEN (``CI/CD > Environment Variables``). This is necessary to raise the Merge Request on your behalf.
        More information `click here <https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/profile/personal_access_tokens.html>`_.
        An example CI using this can be `found here <https://gitlab.com/hmajid2301/stegappasaurus/blob/master/.gitlab-ci.yml>`_.
        
        Add the following to your ``.gitlab-ci.yml`` file:
        
        .. code-block::
        
            stages:
              - open
        
            open_merge_request:
              image: registry.gitlab.com/hmajid2301/gitlab-auto-mr
              before_script: [] # We do not need any setup work, let's remove the global one (if any)
              variables:
                GIT_STRATEGY: none # We do not need a clone of the GIT repository to create a Merge Request
              stage: open
              only:
                - /^feature\/*/ # We have a very strict naming convention
               script:
                - gitlab_auto_mr
        
        You can set extra variables like so.
        
        .. code-block::
        
            variables:
              GIT_STRATEGY: none # We do not need a clone of the GIT repository to create a Merge Request
              TARGET_BRANCH: master # Target branch for MR
        
        - COMMIT PREFIX: Prefix for the MR i.e. WIP
        - REMOVE_BRANCH_AFTER_MERGE: Will delete branch after merge
        - SQUASH: Will squash commits after merge
        - AUTO_MERGE: Will auto merge request after being reviewed and CI
          passes
        - TARGET_BRANCH: The target branch for the MR
