💖 NAME 💖

glab-variable — bestie, this is your whole toolkit for managing variables on a GitLab project or a group. Yes, both. We contain multitudes. ✨

Also hi, you're reading the glab(1) manual family — welcome to the group chat 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

glab variable [flags]

That's it. That's the whole vibe. Run it, then pick a subcommand like the main character you are 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so listen: variables are literally where your config and your secrets live for CI/CD pipelines. Configuration? Secrets? All of it. Stored as variables. Iconic behaviour, no cap 🔥

Now here's the part you gotta remember, bestie — by default every single subcommand acts on the current project. That's the default. That's the baseline. But if you wanna be managing a group's variables instead? Just pass --group and boom, you're in group mode. Two vibes, one command, we love to see it 👑

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -R, --repo="" — picks a different repository for you. Default is empty string "", obviously. You can hand it OWNER/REPO or GROUP/NAMESPACE/REPO, and if you're feeling extra the full URL or a Git URL is also accepted. Flexible queen 💅

🎀 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🎀

  • -h, --help[=false] — shows help for this command. Look at us, being all self-aware. Default is false, so it won't spam you unprompted 🙈

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

The whole friend group, fr fr:

Lowkey a whole squad of subcommands waiting for you. Go read them too, iykyk 💜
