Question

Gitlab support in App Platform

Hi! Congrats on the App Platform release. Looks good!

I see on the blogpost that one of the upcoming features is gitlab and bitbucket support

Support for GitLab and Bitbucket so that you can deploy code from your repositories on these services.

Will the gitlab integration support both private self-hosted gitlab or just gitlab.com? Any schedule on this?

Can’t wait to test the App Platform. Thanks! :)

I was going to create a post for this exact same question. I’m really excited by your PaaS offering. The prices are really cool compared to your competitors. Sadly we use GitLab.com hosting now and not GitHub. I’m looking forward to your GitLab support so I can migrate my projects from Heroku to DigitalOcean.

Really cool stuff you have going on, thanks!

Hello. An alternative “solution”:

1 - create an github repo 2 - sync

# Assume we are in your home directory
cd ~/

# Clone the repo from GitLab using the `--mirror` option
$ git clone --mirror git@your-gitlab-site.com:mario/my-repo.git

# Change into newly created repo directory
$ cd ~/my-repo.git

# Push to GitHub using the `--mirror` option.  The `--no-verify` option skips any hooks. 
$ git push --no-verify --mirror git@github.com:mario/my-repo.git

3 - Got to gitlab repo -> settings -> repository -> Mirroring repositories

4 - Point to your github repo, authenticate, sync etc…

Done! All changes in gitlab is mirrored to github(with small delay)

Good Luck
