[ANN] Guile-GitLab 0.1.0

[Artyom V. Poptsov]

Hello Guilers,

I'm pleased to announce Guile-GitLab 0.1.0 -- the first version of a
GitLab REST API[1] client for GNU Guile:
  https://github.com/artyom-poptsov/guile-gitlab/releases/tag/v0.1.0

This project is in the early stages of development and provides limited
API for Guile programs that allows to fetch GitLab users, projects and
groups.  It addition it allows to delete GitLab users by IDs.

To provide some background why I started this project: I maintain a
GitLab instance in a local college and recently I found myself in need
of regexp-searching users by their emails.  Unfortunately GitLab
Community Edition does not provide such facility from the web UI.  So I
decided to write my own Guile library and a console tool to simplify the
task.

There's a small CLI tool called 'gitlab-cli' that is installed along
with the library to the system.  Here's an example of fetching users
that match the specified criteria:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ gitlab-cli user ls \
        --token "<your-gitlab-token>" \
        --server "https://gitlab.example.org"; \
        --email-not-like ".*changemeplease.*" \
        --print "id,username,email,name" \
        --format csv
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Probably this tool can be useful for others too.

Thanks,

- Artyom
