Ueberauth Gitlab v0.1.0 Ueberauth.Strategy.Gitlab

Provides an Ueberauth strategy for Gitlab. This is based on the GitHub strategy.

Configuration

Create a Gitlab application, and write down its client_id and client_secret values.

Include the Gitlab provider in your Ueberauth configuration:

config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
    providers: [
        ...
        gitlab: { Ueberauth.Strategy.Gitlab, [] }
    ]

The configure the Gitlab strategy:

config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Gitlab.OAuth,
    client_id:  System.get_env("GITLAB_CLIENT_ID"),
    client_secret:  System.get_env("GITLAB_CLIENT_SECRET")

You can edit the behaviour of the Strategy by including some options when you register your provider. To set the uid_field

config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
    providers: [
        ...
        gitlab: { Ueberauth.Strategy.Gitlab, [uid_field: :email] }
    ]

Default is :username.

To set the default ‘scopes’ (permissions):

config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,

providers: [
  gitlab: { Ueberauth.Strategy.Gitlab, [default_scope: "read_user,api"] }
]

Default is “read_user”
