Does NGitLab currently support the Generic Packages Repository

[gep13]

What I am referring to is this:

https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/packages/generic_packages/index.html#publish-a-package-file

I don't see an obvious client that could be used to upload a file into this repository, but I was hoping that I am missing something.

Thanks

NGitLab does not support package endpoints. Feel You can submit a PR if you want.

Happy to try to submit a PR for this, but as yet, I haven't looked at the source code for NGitLab to figure out how it works under the hood. Would you be able to provide any guidance/directions on where this new functionality would go? Thanks!

You should:

• Add a new interface IPackageClient to expose the new methods
• Add a new property or method in IGitLabClient to get an instance of IPackageClient

Depending on what should be in the request body, you may also need to update

NGitLab/NGitLab/Impl/HttpRequestor.GitLabRequest.cs

Lines 155 to 183 in fde8c62

	private HttpWebRequest CreateRequest(RequestOptions options)
	{
	var request = WebRequest.CreateHttp(Url);
	request.Method = Method.ToString().ToUpperInvariant();
	request.Accept = "application/json";
	request.Headers = Headers;
	request.AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip;
	request.Timeout = (int)options.HttpClientTimeout.TotalMilliseconds;
	request.ReadWriteTimeout = (int)options.HttpClientTimeout.TotalMilliseconds;
	if (HasOutput)
	{
	if (FormData != null)
	{
	AddFileData(request, options);
	}
	else if (JsonData != null)
	{
	AddJsonData(request, options);
	}
	}
	else if (Method == MethodType.Put)
	{
	request.ContentLength = 0;
	}
	return request;
	}

.

You don't need to implement the interface in the mock project. You can leave the NotImplementedException.

To run the tests locally, you can check the readme https://github.com/ubisoft/NGitLab?tab=readme-ov-file#running-unit-tests-locally
