-# GitLab Composer Repository
+# Composer packages in the Package Registry
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/15886) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 13.2.
> - [Moved](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/221259) to GitLab Core in 13.3.
-With the GitLab Composer Repository, every project can have its own space to store [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) packages.
+Publish [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) packages in your project's Package Registry.
+Then, install the packages whenever you need to use them as a dependency.
-## Enabling the Composer Repository
+Only Composer 1.x is supported. Consider contributing or even adding support for
+[Composer 2.0 in the Package Registry](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/259840).
-NOTE: **Note:**
-This option is available only if your GitLab administrator has
-[enabled support for the Package Registry](../../../administration/packages/index.md).
+## Create a Composer package
-When the Composer Repository is enabled, it is available for all new projects
-by default. To enable it for existing projects, or if you want to disable it:
+If you do not have a Composer package, create one and check it in to
+a repository. This example shows a GitLab repository, but the repository
+can be any public or private repository.
-1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > General > Visibility, project features, permissions**.
-1. Find the Packages feature and enable or disable it.
-1. Click on **Save changes** for the changes to take effect.
+1. Create a directory called `my-composer-package` and change to that directory:
-You should then be able to see the **Packages & Registries** section on the left sidebar.
+ ```shell
+ mkdir my-composer-package && cd my-composer-package
+ ```
-## Getting started
+1. Run [`composer init`](https://getcomposer.org/doc/03-cli.md#init) and answer the prompts.
-This section covers creating a new example Composer package to publish. This is a
-quickstart to test out the **GitLab Composer Registry**.
+ For namespace, enter your unique [namespace](../../../user/group/index.md#namespaces), like your GitLab username or group name.
-To complete this section, you need a recent version of [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/).
+ A file called `composer.json` is created:
-### Creating a package project
+ ```json
+ {
+ "name": "<namespace>/composer-test",
+ "description": "Library XY",
+ "type": "library",
+ "license": "GPL-3.0-only",
+ "authors": [
+ {
+ "name": "John Doe",
+ "email": "john@example.com"
+ }
+ ],
+ "require": {}
+ }
+ ```
-Understanding how to create a full Composer project is outside the scope of this
-guide, but you can create a small package to test out the registry. Start by
-creating a new directory called `my-composer-package`:
+1. Run Git commands to tag the changes and push them to your repository:
-```shell
-mkdir my-composer-package && cd my-composer-package
-```
+ ```shell
+ git init
+ git add composer.json
+ git commit -m 'Composer package test'
+ git tag v1.0.0
+ git remote add origin git@gitlab.example.com:<namespace>/<project-name>.git
+ git push --set-upstream origin master
+ git push origin v1.0.0
+ ```
-Create a new `composer.json` file inside this directory to set up the basic project:
+The package is now in your GitLab Package Registry.
-```shell
-touch composer.json
-```
+## Publish a Composer package by using the API
-Inside `composer.json`, add the following code:
+Publish a Composer package to the Package Registry,
+so that anyone who can access the project can use the package as a dependency.
-```json
-{
- "name": "<namespace>/composer-test",
- "type": "library",
- "license": "GPL-3.0-only",
- "version": "1.0.0"
-}
-```
+Prerequisites:
-Replace `<namespace>` with a unique namespace like your GitLab username or group name.
+- A package in a GitLab repository.
+- A valid `composer.json` file.
+- The Packages feature is enabled in a GitLab repository.
+- The project ID, which is on the project's home page.
+- A [personal access token](../../../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md) with the scope set to `api`.
-After this basic package structure is created, we need to tag it in Git and push it to the repository.
+ NOTE: **Note:**
+ [Deploy tokens](./../../project/deploy_tokens/index.md) are
+ [not yet supported](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/240897) for use with Composer.
-```shell
-git init
-git add composer.json
-git commit -m 'Composer package test'
-git tag v1.0.0
-git remote add origin git@gitlab.com:<namespace>/<project-name>.git
-git push --set-upstream origin master
-git push origin v1.0.0
-```
+To publish the package:
-### Publishing the package
+- Send a `POST` request to the [Packages API](../../../api/packages.md).
-Now that the basics of our project is completed, we can publish the package.
-To publish the package, you need:
+ For example, you can use `curl`:
-- A personal access token or `CI_JOB_TOKEN`.
+ ```shell
+ curl --data tag=<tag> "https://__token__:<personal-access-token>@gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/<project_id>/packages/composer"
+ ```
- ([Deploy tokens](./../../project/deploy_tokens/index.md) are not yet supported for use with Composer.)
+ - `<personal-access-token>` is your personal access token.
+ - `<project_id>` is your project ID.
+ - `<tag>` is the Git tag name of the version you want to publish.
+ To publish a branch, use `branch=<branch>` instead of `tag=<tag>`.
-- Your project ID which can be found on the home page of your project.
+You can view the published package by going to **Packages & Registries > Package Registry** and
+selecting the **Composer** tab.
-To publish the package hosted on GitLab, make a `POST` request to the GitLab package API.
-A tool like `curl` can be used to make this request:
+## Publish a Composer package by using CI/CD
-You can generate a [personal access token](../../../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md) with the scope set to `api` for repository authentication. For example:
+You can publish a Composer package to the Package Registry as part of your CI/CD process.
-```shell
-curl --data tag=<tag> 'https://__token__:<personal-access-token>@gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/<project_id>/packages/composer'
-```
+1. Specify a `CI_JOB_TOKEN` in your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file:
-Where:
+ ```yaml
+ stages:
+ - deploy
-- `<personal-access-token>` is your personal access token.
-- `<project_id>` is your project ID.
-- `<tag>` is the Git tag name of the version you want to publish. In this example it should be `v1.0.0`. Notice that instead of `tag=<tag>` you can also use `branch=<branch>` to publish branches.
+ deploy:
+ stage: deploy
+ script:
+ - 'curl --header "Job-Token: $CI_JOB_TOKEN" --data tag=<tag> "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/$CI_PROJECT_ID/packages/composer"'
+ ```
-If the above command succeeds, you now should be able to see the package under the **Packages & Registries** section of your project page.
+1. Run the pipeline.
-### Publishing the package with CI/CD
+You can view the published package by going to **Packages & Registries > Package Registry** and selecting the **Composer** tab.
-To work with Composer commands within [GitLab CI/CD](./../../../ci/README.md), you can
-publish Composer packages by using `CI_JOB_TOKEN` in your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file:
+### Use a CI/CD template
-```yaml
-stages:
- - deploy
+A more detailed Composer CI/CD file is also available as a `.gitlab-ci.yml` template:
-deploy:
- stage: deploy
- script:
- - 'curl --header "Job-Token: $CI_JOB_TOKEN" --data tag=<tag> "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/$CI_PROJECT_ID/packages/composer"'
-```
+1. On the left sidebar, click **Project overview**.
+1. Above the file list, click **Set up CI/CD**. If this button is not available, select **CI/CD Configuration** and then **Edit**.
+1. From the **Apply a template** list, select **Composer**.
-### Installing a package
+CAUTION: **Warning:**
+Do not save unless you want to overwrite the existing CI/CD file.
-To install your package, you need:
+## Install a Composer package
-- A personal access token. You can generate a [personal access token](../../../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md) with the scope set to `api` for repository authentication.
-- Your group ID which can be found on the home page of your project's group.
+Install a package from the Package Registry so you can use it as a dependency.
-Add the GitLab Composer package repository to your existing project's `composer.json` file, along with the package name and version you want to install like so:
+Prerequisites:
-```json
-{
- ...
- "repositories": [
- { "type": "composer", "url": "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/group/<group_id>/-/packages/composer/packages.json" }
- ],
- "require": {
- ...
- "<package_name>": "<version>"
- },
- ...
-}
-```
+- A package in the Package Registry.
+- The group ID, which is on the group's home page.
+- A [personal access token](../../../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md) with the scope set to, at minimum, `read_api`.
-Where:
+ NOTE: **Note:**
+ [Deploy tokens](./../../project/deploy_tokens/index.md) are
+ [not yet supported](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/240897) for use with Composer.
-- `<group_id>` is the group ID found under your project's group page.
-- `<package_name>` is your package name as defined in your package's `composer.json` file.
-- `<version>` is your package version (`1.0.0` in this example).
+To install a package:
-You also need to create a `auth.json` file with your GitLab credentials:
+1. Add the Package Registry URL to your project's `composer.json` file, along with the package name and version you want to install:
-```json
-{
- "gitlab-token": {
- "gitlab.com": "<personal_access_token>"
- }
-}
-```
+ - Connect to the Package Registry for your group:
-Where:
+ ```shell
+ composer config repositories.<group_id> composer https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/group/<group_id>/-/packages/composer/
+ ```
-- `<personal_access_token>` is your personal access token.
+ - Set the required package version:
-With the `composer.json` and `auth.json` files configured, you can install the package by running `composer`:
+ ```shell
+ composer require <package_name>:<version>
+ ```
-```shell
-composer update
-```
+ Result in the `composer.json` file:
-If successful, you should be able to see the output indicating that the package has been successfully installed.
+ ```json
+ {
+ ...
+ "repositories": {
+ "<group_id>": {
+ "type": "composer",
+ "url": "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/group/<group_id>/-/packages/composer/"
+ },
+ ...
+ },
+ "require": {
+ ...
+ "<package_name>": "<version>"
+ },
+ ...
+ }
+ ```
+
+ You can unset this with the command:
+
+ ```shell
+ composer config --unset repositories.<group_id>
+ ```
+
+ - `<group_id>` is the group ID.
+ - `<package_name>` is the package name defined in your package's `composer.json` file.
+ - `<version>` is the package version.
+
+1. Create an `auth.json` file with your GitLab credentials:
+
+ ```shell
+ composer config gitlab-token.<DOMAIN-NAME> <personal_access_token>
+ ```
+
+ Result in the `auth.json` file:
+
+ ```json
+ {
+ ...
+ "gitlab-token": {
+ "<DOMAIN-NAME>": "<personal_access_token>",
+ ...
+ }
+ }
+ ```
+
+ You can unset this with the command:
+
+ ```shell
+ composer config --unset --auth gitlab-token.<DOMAIN-NAME>
+ ```
+
+ - `<DOMAIN-NAME>` is the GitLab instance URL `gitlab.com` or `gitlab.example.com`.
+ - `<personal_access_token>` with the scope set to `read_api`.
+
+1. If you are on a GitLab self-managed instance, add `gitlab-domains` to `composer.json`.
+
+ ```shell
+ composer config gitlab-domains gitlab01.example.com gitlab02.example.com
+ ```
+
+ Result in the `composer.json` file:
+
+ ```json
+ {
+ ...
+ "repositories": [
+ { "type": "composer", "url": "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/group/<group_id>/-/packages/composer/" }
+ ],
+ "config": {
+ ...
+ "gitlab-domains": ["gitlab01.example.com", "gitlab02.example.com"]
+ },
+ "require": {
+ ...
+ "<package_name>": "<version>"
+ },
+ ...
+ }
+ ```
+
+ You can unset this with the command:
+
+ ```shell
+ composer config --unset gitlab-domains
+ ```
+
+ NOTE: **Note:**
+ On GitLab.com, Composer uses the GitLab token from `auth.json` as a private token by default.
+ Without the `gitlab-domains` definition in `composer.json`, Composer uses the GitLab token
+ as basic-auth, with the token as a username and a blank password. This results in a 401 error.
+
+Output indicates that the package has been successfully installed.
CAUTION: **Important:**
-Make sure to never commit the `auth.json` file to your repository. To install packages from a CI job,
+Never commit the `auth.json` file to your repository. To install packages from a CI/CD job,
consider using the [`composer config`](https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/handling-private-packages-with-satis.md#authentication) tool with your personal access token
stored in a [GitLab CI/CD environment variable](../../../ci/variables/README.md) or in

+## Build a Conan package
-## Getting started
+This section explains how to install Conan and build a package for your C/C++ project.
-This section covers installing Conan and building a package for your C/C++ project. This is a quickstart if you're new
-to Conan. If you already are using Conan and understand how to build your own packages, move on to the [next section](#adding-the-gitlab-package-registry-as-a-conan-remote).
+If you already use Conan and know how to build your own packages, go to the [next section](#add-the-package-registry-as-a-conan-remote).
-### Installing Conan
+### Install Conan
-Follow the instructions at [conan.io](https://conan.io/downloads.html) to download the Conan package manager to your local development environment.
+Download the Conan package manager to your local development environment by following
+the instructions at [conan.io](https://conan.io/downloads.html).
-Once installation is complete, verify you can use Conan in your terminal by running
+When installation is complete, verify you can use Conan in your terminal by running:
```shell
conan --version
```
-You should see the Conan version printed in the output:
+The Conan version is printed in the output:
```plaintext
Conan version 1.20.5
```
-### Installing CMake
+### Install CMake
+
+When you develop with C++ and Conan, you have a range of compilers to choose from.
+This example uses the CMake compiler.
+
+To install CMake:
+
+- For Mac, use [homebrew](https://brew.sh/) and run `brew install cmake`.
+- For other operating systems, follow the instructions at [cmake.org](https://cmake.org/install/).
-When developing with C++ and Conan, you have a wide range of options for compilers. This tutorial walks through using the cmake
-compiler. In your terminal, run the command
+When installation is complete, verify you can use CMake in your terminal by running:
```shell
cmake --version
```
-You should see the cmake version printed in the output. If you see something else, you may have to install cmake.
+The CMake version is printed in the output.
-On a Mac, you can use [homebrew](https://brew.sh/) to install cmake by running `brew install cmake`. Otherwise, follow
-instructions at [cmake.org](https://cmake.org/install/) for your operating system.
+### Create a project
-### Creating a project
+To test the Package Registry, you need a C++ project. If you don't already have one, you can clone the
+Conan [hello world starter project](https://github.com/conan-io/hello).
-Understanding what is needed to create a valid and compilable C++ project is out of the scope of this guide, but if you're new to C++ and want to try out the GitLab
-package registry, Conan.io has a great [hello world starter project](https://github.com/conan-io/hello) that you can clone to get started.
+### Build a package
-Clone the repository and it can be used for the rest of the tutorial if you don't have your own C++ project.
+To build a package:
-### Building a package
+1. Open a terminal and navigate to your project's root folder.
+1. Generate a new recipe by running `conan new` with a package name and version:
-In your terminal, navigate to the root folder of your project. Generate a new recipe by running `conan new` and providing it with a
-package name and version:
+ ```shell
+ conan new Hello/0.1 -t
+ ```
-```shell
-conan new Hello/0.1 -t
-```
-
-Next, create a package for that recipe by running `conan create` providing the Conan user and channel:
+1. Create a package for the recipe by running `conan create` with the Conan user and channel:
-```shell
-conan create . mycompany/beta
-```
+ ```shell
+ conan create . mycompany/beta
+ ```
-NOTE: **Note:**
-If you are using the [instance level remote](#instance-level-remote), a specific [naming convention](#package-recipe-naming-convention-for-instance-level-remote) must be followed.
+ NOTE: **Note:**
+ If you use an [instance remote](#add-a-remote-for-your-instance), you must follow a specific [naming convention](#package-recipe-naming-convention-for-instance-remotes).
-These two example commands generate a final package with the recipe `Hello/0.1@mycompany/beta`.
+A package with the recipe `Hello/0.1@mycompany/beta` is created.
-For more advanced details on creating and managing your packages, refer to the [Conan docs](https://docs.conan.io/en/latest/creating_packages.html).
+For more details on creating and managing Conan packages, see the [Conan docs](https://docs.conan.io/en/latest/creating_packages.html).
-You are now ready to upload your package to the GitLab registry. To get started, first you need to set GitLab as a remote. Then you need to add a Conan user for that remote to authenticate your requests.
+## Add the Package Registry as a Conan remote
-## Adding the GitLab Package Registry as a Conan remote
+To run `conan` commands, you must add the Package Registry as a Conan remote for your project or instance.
-You can add the GitLab Package Registry as a Conan remote at the project or instance level.
-
-### Project level remote
+### Add a remote for your project
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/11679) in GitLab 13.4.
-The project level remote allows you to work with packages within a given project.
-The advantage of using the project level remote is there are no restrictions to your
-package name, however all GitLab Conan packages require a full recipe
-with the user and channel (`package_name/version@user/channel`).
+Set a remote so you can work with packages in a project without
+having to specify the remote name in every command.
+
+When you set a remote for a project, there are no restrictions to your package names.
+However, your commands must include the full recipe, including the user and channel,
+for example, `package_name/version@user/channel`.
To add the remote:
-```shell
-conan remote add gitlab https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/<project_id>/packages/conan
-```
+1. In your terminal, run this command:
-Once the remote is set, you can use the remote when running Conan commands by adding `--remote=gitlab` to the end of your commands.
+ ```shell
+ conan remote add gitlab https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/<project_id>/packages/conan
+ ```
-For example:
+1. Use the remote by adding `--remote=gitlab` to the end of your Conan command.
-```shell
-conan search Hello* --all --remote=gitlab
-```
+ For example:
-### Instance level remote
+ ```shell
+ conan search Hello* --all --remote=gitlab
+ ```
-The instance level remote allows you to use a single remote to access packages accross your entire
-GitLab instance. However, when using this remote, there are certain
-[package naming restrictions](#package-recipe-naming-convention-for-instance-level-remote)
-that must be followed.
+### Add a remote for your instance
-Add a new remote to your Conan configuration:
+Use a single remote to access packages across your entire GitLab instance.

+
+To add the remote:
-Once the remote is set, you can use the remote when running Conan commands by adding `--remote=gitlab` to the end of your commands.

+ ```
-```shell
-conan search 'Hello*' --remote=gitlab
-```
+1. Use the remote by adding `--remote=gitlab` to the end of your Conan command.
-#### Package recipe naming convention for instance level remote

+## Authenticate to the Package Registry
-You need a personal access token or deploy token.
+To authenticate to the Package Registry, you need either a personal access token or deploy token.
-For repository authentication:
+- If you use a [personal access token](../../../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md), set the scope to `api`.
+- If you use a [deploy token](./../../project/deploy_tokens/index.md), set the scope to `read_package_registry`, `write_package_registry`, or both.
-- You can generate a [personal access token](../../../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md) with the scope set to `api`.
-- You can generate a [deploy token](./../../project/deploy_tokens/index.md) with the scope set to `read_package_registry`, `write_package_registry`, or both.
+### Add your credentials to the GitLab remote
-### Adding a Conan user to the GitLab remote
+Associate your token with the GitLab remote, so that you don't have to explicitly
+add a token to every Conan command.
-Once you have a personal access token and have [set your Conan remote](#adding-the-gitlab-package-registry-as-a-conan-remote), you can associate the token with the remote so you don't have to explicitly add them to each Conan command you run:
+Prerequisites:
+
+- You must have an authentication token.
+- The Conan remote [must be set](#add-the-package-registry-as-a-conan-remote).
+
+In a terminal, run this command. In this example, the remote name is `gitlab`. Use the name of your remote.
```shell
conan user <gitlab_username or deploy_token_username> -r gitlab -p <personal_access_token or deploy_token>
```
-NOTE: **Note:**
-If you named your remote something other than `gitlab`, your remote name should be used in this command instead of `gitlab`.
-
-From now on, when you run commands using `--remote=gitlab`, your username and password is automatically included in the requests.
-
-NOTE: **Note:**
-The personal access token is not stored locally at any moment. Conan uses JSON Web Tokens (JWT), so when you run this command, Conan requests an expirable token from GitLab using your token. The JWT does expire on a regular basis, so you need to re-enter your personal access token when that happens.
+Now when you run commands with `--remote=gitlab`, your username and password are automatically included in the requests.
-Alternatively, you could explicitly include your credentials in any given command.
-For example:
+Alternately, you can explicitly include your credentials in any given command. For example:
```shell
CONAN_LOGIN_USERNAME=<gitlab_username or deploy_token_username> CONAN_PASSWORD=<personal_access_token or deploy_token> conan upload Hello/0.1@mycompany/beta --all --remote=gitlab
```
-### Setting a default remote to your project (optional)
+NOTE: **Note:**
+Your authentication with GitLab expires on a regular basis,
+so occasionally you may need to re-enter your personal access token.
+
+### Set a default remote for your project (optional)
+
+If you want to interact with the GitLab Package Registry without having to specify a remote,
+you can tell Conan to always use the Package Registry for your packages.
-If you'd like Conan to always use GitLab as the registry for your package, you can tell Conan to always reference the GitLab remote for a given package recipe:
+In a terminal, run this command.
```shell
conan remote add_ref Hello/0.1@mycompany/beta gitlab
```
NOTE: **Note:**
-The package recipe does include the version, so setting the default remote for `Hello/0.1@user/channel` will not work for `Hello/0.2@user/channel`.
-This functionality is best suited for when you want to consume or install packages from the GitLab registry without having to specify a remote.
+The package recipe includes the version, so the default remote for `Hello/0.1@user/channel` does not work for `Hello/0.2@user/channel`.
-The rest of the example commands in this documentation assume that you've added a Conan user with your credentials to the `gitlab` remote and will not include the explicit credentials or remote option. With that said, be aware that any of the commands could be run without having added a user or default remote:
+If you do not set a default user or remote, you can still include the user and remote in your commands:
```shell
`CONAN_LOGIN_USERNAME=<gitlab_username or deploy_token_username> CONAN_PASSWORD=<personal_access_token or deploy_token> <conan command> --remote=gitlab
```
-## Uploading a package
+## Publish a Conan package
-First you need to [create your Conan package locally](https://docs.conan.io/en/latest/creating_packages/getting_started.html).
+Publish a Conan package to the Package Registry, so that anyone who can access the project can use the package as a dependency.
-NOTE: **Note:**
-If you are using the [instance level remote](#instance-level-remote), a specific [naming convention](#package-recipe-naming-convention-for-instance-level-remote) must be followed.
+Prerequisites:
+
+To publish a Conan package, you need:
-Ensure you have a project created on GitLab and that the personal access token you're using has the correct permissions for write access to the container registry by selecting the `api` [scope](../../../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md#limiting-scopes-of-a-personal-access-token).
+- The Package Registry [set as a remote](#add-the-package-registry-as-a-conan-remote).
+- [Authentication](#authenticate-to-the-package-registry) set up with the Package Registry.
+- A local [Conan package](https://docs.conan.io/en/latest/creating_packages/getting_started.html).
+ - For an instance remote, the package must meet the [naming convention](#package-recipe-naming-convention-for-instance-remotes).
+- A project ID, which is on the project's homepage.
-You can upload your package to the GitLab Package Registry using the `conan upload` command:
+To publish the package, use the `conan upload` command:
```shell
conan upload Hello/0.1@mycompany/beta --all
```
-## Installing a package
+## Publish a Conan package by using CI/CD
-Conan packages are commonly installed as dependencies using the `conanfile.txt` file.
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/11678) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 12.7.
-In your project where you would like to install the Conan package as a dependency, open `conanfile.txt` or create
-an empty file named `conanfile.txt` in the root of your project.
+To work with Conan commands in [GitLab CI/CD](./../../../ci/README.md), you can use
+`CI_JOB_TOKEN` in place of the personal access token in your commands.
-Add the Conan recipe to the `[requires]` section of the file:
+You can provide the `CONAN_LOGIN_USERNAME` and `CONAN_PASSWORD` with each
+Conan command in your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file. For example:
-```ini
- [requires]
- Hello/0.1@mycompany/beta
+```yaml
+image: conanio/gcc7
- [generators]
- cmake
+create_package:
+ stage: deploy
+ script:
+ - conan remote add gitlab https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/packages/conan
+ - conan new <package-name>/0.1 -t
+ - conan create . <group-name>+<project-name>/stable
+ - CONAN_LOGIN_USERNAME=ci_user CONAN_PASSWORD=${CI_JOB_TOKEN} conan upload <package-name>/0.1@<group-name>+<project-name>/stable --all --remote=gitlab
```
-Next, create a build directory from the root of your project and navigate to it:
+Additional Conan images to use as the basis of your CI file are available
+in the [Conan docs](https://docs.conan.io/en/latest/howtos/run_conan_in_docker.html#available-docker-images).
-```shell
-mkdir build && cd build
-```
+## Install a Conan package
-Now you can install the dependencies listed in `conanfile.txt`:
+Install a Conan package from the Package Registry so you can use it as a dependency.
-```shell
-conan install ..
-```
+Conan packages are often installed as dependencies by using the `conanfile.txt` file.
+
+Prerequisites:
+
+To install a Conan package, you need:
+
+- The Package Registry [set as a remote](#add-the-package-registry-as-a-conan-remote).
+- [Authentication](#authenticate-to-the-package-registry) set up with the Package Registry.
+
+1. In the project where you want to install the package as a dependency, open `conanfile.txt`.
+ Or, in the root of your project, create a file called `conanfile.txt`.
+
+1. Add the Conan recipe to the `[requires]` section of the file:
+
+ ```plaintext
+ [requires]
+ Hello/0.1@mycompany/beta
+
+ [generators]
+ cmake
+ ```
+
+1. At the root of your project, create a `build` directory and change to that directory:
+
+ ```shell
+ mkdir build && cd build
+ ```
+
+1. Install the dependencies listed in `conanfile.txt`:
+
+ ```shell
+ conan install <options>
+ ```
NOTE: **Note:**
-If you're trying to install the package you just created in this tutorial, not much will happen since that package
-already exists on your local machine.
+If you try to install the package you just created in this tutorial, the package
+already exists on your local machine, so this command has no effect.
-## Removing a package
+## Remove a Conan package
There are two ways to remove a Conan package from the GitLab Package Registry.
-- **Using the Conan client in the command line:**

local system cache.
NOTE: **Note:**
This command removes all recipe and binary package files from the Package Registry.
-- **GitLab project interface**: in the packages view of your project page, you can delete packages by clicking the red trash icons.
+- From the GitLab user interface:
-## Searching the GitLab Package Registry for Conan packages
+ Go to your project's **Packages & Registries > Package Registry**. Remove the package by clicking the red trash icon.
-The `conan search` command can be run searching by full or partial package name, or by exact recipe.
+## Search for Conan packages in the Package Registry
-To search using a partial name, use the wildcard symbol `*`, which should be placed at the end of your search (for example, `my-packa*`):
+To search by full or partial package name, or by exact recipe, run the `conan search` command.
-```shell
-conan search Hello --all --remote=gitlab
-conan search He* --all --remote=gitlab
-conan search Hello/0.1@mycompany/beta --all --remote=gitlab
-```
+- To search for all packages with a specific package name:
+
+ ```shell
+ conan search Hello --remote=gitlab
+ ```
-The scope of your search includes all projects you have permission to access, this includes your private projects as well as all public projects.
+- To search for a partial name, like all packages starting with `He`:
-## Fetching Conan package information from the GitLab Package Registry
+ ```shell
+ conan search He* --remote=gitlab
+ ```
-The `conan info` command returns information about a given package:
+The scope of your search includes all projects you have permission to access. This includes your private projects as well as all public projects.
+
+## Fetch Conan package information from the Package Registry
+
+The `conan info` command returns information about a package:
```shell
conan info Hello/0.1@mycompany/beta
```
-## List of supported CLI commands
+## Supported CLI commands
The GitLab Conan repository supports the following Conan CLI commands:
-- `conan upload`: Upload your recipe and package files to the GitLab Package Registry.
-- `conan install`: Install a conan package from the GitLab Package Registry, this includes using the `conanfile.txt` file.
-- `conan search`: Search the GitLab Package Registry for public packages, and private packages you have permission to view.
-- `conan info`: View the information on a given package from the GitLab Package Registry.
-- `conan remove`: Delete the package from the GitLab Package Registry.

-## Using GitLab CI with Conan packages
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/11678) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 12.7.
-
-To work with Conan commands within [GitLab CI/CD](./../../../ci/README.md), you can use
-`CI_JOB_TOKEN` in place of the personal access token in your commands.
-
-It's easiest to provide the `CONAN_LOGIN_USERNAME` and `CONAN_PASSWORD` with each
-Conan command in your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file. For example:
-
-```yaml
-image: conanio/gcc7
-
-create_package:
- stage: deploy
- script:
- - conan remote add gitlab https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/packages/conan
- - conan new <package-name>/0.1 -t
- - conan create . <group-name>+<project-name>/stable
- - CONAN_LOGIN_USERNAME=ci_user CONAN_PASSWORD=${CI_JOB_TOKEN} conan upload <package-name>/0.1@<group-name>+<project-name>/stable --all --remote=gitlab
-
-```
-
-You can find additional Conan images to use as the base of your CI file
-in the [Conan docs](https://docs.conan.io/en/latest/howtos/run_conan_in_docker.html#available-docker-images).
+- `conan upload`: Upload your recipe and package files to the Package Registry.

-[Docker documentation](https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/intro/).
+### Authenticate with the Container Registry
-## Authenticating to the GitLab Container Registry
+Before you can build and push images, you must authenticate with the Container Registry.
-If you visit the **Packages & Registries > Container Registry** link under your project's
-menu, you can see the explicit instructions to login to the Container Registry
-using your GitLab credentials.
+To authenticate, you can use:
-For example if the Registry's URL is `registry.example.com`, then you should be
-able to login with:
+- A [personal access token](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md).
+- A [deploy token](../../project/deploy_tokens/index.md).
-```shell
-docker login registry.example.com
-```
+Both of these require the minimum scope to be:
-NOTE: **Note:**
-If you have [2 Factor Authentication](../../profile/account/two_factor_authentication.md)
-enabled in your account, you need to pass a
-[personal access token](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md) instead
-of your password in order to login to GitLab's Container Registry.
+- For read (pull) access, `read_registry`.
+- For write (push) access, `write_registry`.
-Credentials must be provided for authorization to any non-public registry. Only project members can access private,
-GitLab-hosted registries.
+To authenticate, run the `docker` command. For example:
-There are two ways to authenticate:
+ ```shell
+ docker login registry.example.com -u <username> -p <token>
+ ```
-- By using a [personal access token](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md).
-- By using a [deploy token](../../project/deploy_tokens/index.md).
+### Build and push images by using Docker commands
-The minimum scope needed for both of them is `read_registry`.
+To build and push to the Container Registry:
-Example of using a token:
+1. Authenticate with the Container Registry.
-```shell
-docker login registry.example.com -u <username> -p <token>
-```
+1. Run the command to build or push. For example, to build:
-## Build and push images from your local machine
+ ```shell
+ docker build -t registry.example.com/group/project/image .
+ ```
-Building and publishing images should be a straightforward process. Just make
-sure that you are using the Registry URL with the namespace and project name
-that is hosted on GitLab:
+ Or to push:
-```shell
-docker build -t registry.example.com/group/project/image .
-docker push registry.example.com/group/project/image
-```
+ ```shell
+ docker push registry.example.com/group/project/image
+ ```
-Your image is named after the following scheme:
+You can also view these commands by going to your project's **Packages & Registries > Container Registry**.
-```plaintext

-## Build and push images using GitLab CI/CD
-
-While you can build and push your images from your local machine, take
-full advantage of the Container Registry by combining it with GitLab CI/CD.
-You can then create workflows and automate any processes that involve testing,
-building, and eventually deploying your project from the Docker image you
-created.
-
-Before diving into the details, some things you should be aware of:
-
-- You must [authenticate to the container registry](#authenticating-to-the-container-registry-with-gitlab-cicd)
- before running any commands. You can do this in the `before_script` if multiple
- jobs depend on it.
-- Using `docker build --pull` fetches any changes to base
- images before building in case your cache is stale. It takes slightly
- longer, but it means you don’t get stuck without security patches for base images.
-- Doing an explicit `docker pull` before each `docker run` fetches
- the latest image that was just built. This is especially important if you are
- using multiple runners that cache images locally. Using the Git SHA in your
- image tag makes this less necessary since each job is unique and you
- shouldn't ever have a stale image. However, it's still possible to have a
- stale image if you re-build a given commit after a dependency has changed.
-- You don't want to build directly to `latest` tag in case there are multiple jobs
- happening simultaneously.
+Before you can build and push images by using GitLab CI/CD, you must authenticate with the Container Registry.
-### Authenticating to the Container Registry with GitLab CI/CD
+To use CI/CD to authenticate, you can use:
-There are three ways to authenticate to the Container Registry via
-[GitLab CI/CD](../../../ci/yaml/README.md):
+- The `CI_REGISTRY_USER` variable.
-- **Using the special `CI_REGISTRY_USER` variable**: The user specified by this variable is created for you in order to
- push to the Registry connected to your project. Its password is automatically
- set with the `CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD` variable. This allows you to automate building and deploying
- your Docker images and has read/write access to the Registry. This is ephemeral,
- so it's only valid for one job. You can use the following example as-is:
+ This variable has read-write access to the Container Registry and is valid for
+ one job only. Its password is also automatically created and assigned to `CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD`.
```shell
docker login -u $CI_REGISTRY_USER -p $CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD $CI_REGISTRY
```
-- **Using the GitLab Deploy Token**: You can create and use a
- [special deploy token](../../project/deploy_tokens/index.md#gitlab-deploy-token)
- with your projects.
- Once created, you can use the special environment variables, and GitLab CI/CD
- fills them in for you. You can use the following example as-is:
+- A [CI job token](../../../ci/triggers/README.md#ci-job-token).
```shell
- docker login -u $CI_DEPLOY_USER -p $CI_DEPLOY_PASSWORD $CI_REGISTRY
+ docker login -u $CI_JOB_USER -p $CI_JOB_TOKEN $CI_REGISTRY
```
-- **Using a personal access token**: You can create and use a
- [personal access token](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md)
- in case your project is private:
+- A [deploy token](../../project/deploy_tokens/index.md#gitlab-deploy-token) with the minimum scope of:
+ - For read (pull) access, `read_registry`.
+ - For write (push) access, `write_registry`.
- - For read (pull) access, the scope should be `read_registry`.
- - For write (push) access, the scope should be `write_registry`.
+ ```shell
+ docker login -u $CI_DEPLOY_USER -p $CI_DEPLOY_PASSWORD $CI_REGISTRY
+ ```
- Replace the `<username>` and `<access_token>` in the following example:
+- A [personal access token](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md) with the minimum scope of:
+ - For read (pull) access, `read_registry`.
+ - For write (push) access, `write_registry`.
```shell
docker login -u <username> -p <access_token> $CI_REGISTRY
```
+### Configure your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file
+
+You can configure your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file to build and push images to the Container Registry.
+
+- If multiple jobs require authentication, put the authentication command in the `before_script`.
+- Before building, use `docker build --pull` to fetch changes to base images. It takes slightly
+ longer, but it ensures your image is up-to-date.
+- Before each `docker run`, do an explicit `docker pull` to fetch
+ the image that was just built. This is especially important if you are
+ using multiple runners that cache images locally.
+
+ If you use the Git SHA in your image tag, each job is unique and you
+ should never have a stale image. However, it's still possible to have a
+ stale image if you re-build a given commit after a dependency has changed.
+- Don't build directly to the `latest` tag because multiple jobs may be
+ happening simultaneously.

+
+When [pushing a Docker manifest list](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/manifest/#create-and-push-a-manifest-list) to the GitLab Container Registry, you may receive the error `manifest blob unknown: blob unknown to registry`. This issue occurs when the individual child manifests referenced in the manifest list were not pushed to the same repository.
+
+For example, you may have two individual images, one for `amd64` and another for `arm64v8`, and you want to build a multi-arch image with them. The `amd64` and `arm64v8` images must be pushed to the same repository where you want to push the multi-arch image.
+
+As a workaround, you should include the architecture in the tag name of individual images. For example, use `mygroup/myapp:1.0.0-amd64` instead of using sub repositories, like `mygroup/myapp/amd64:1.0.0`. You can then tag the manifest list with `mygroup/myapp:1.0.0`.

+
+Publish generic files, like release binaries, in your project’s Package Registry. Then, install the packages whenever you need to use them as a dependency.
+
+## Authenticate to the Package Registry
+
+To authenticate to the Package Registry, you need either a [personal access token](../../../api/README.md#personalproject-access-tokens)
+or [CI job token](../../../api/README.md#gitlab-ci-job-token).

+## Publish a generic package by using CI/CD
+
+To work with generic packages in [GitLab CI/CD](./../../../ci/README.md), you can use
+`CI_JOB_TOKEN` in place of the personal access token in your commands.
+
+For example:
