# GitLab CLI - `glab`
|
|
|
|
GLab is an open source GitLab CLI tool. It brings GitLab to your terminal:
|
|
next to where you are already working with Git and your code, without
|
|
switching between windows and browser tabs.
|
|
|
|
- Work with issues.
|
|
- Work with merge requests.
|
|
- Watch running pipelines directly from your CLI.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
The GitLab CLI uses commands structured like `glab <command> <subcommand> [flags]`
|
|
to perform many of the actions you usually do from the GitLab user interface:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
# Sign in
|
|
glab auth login --stdin < token.txt
|
|
|
|
# View a list of issues
|
|
glab issue list
|
|
|
|
# Create merge request for issue 123
|
|
glab mr for 123
|
|
|
|
# Check out the branch for merge request 243
|
|
glab mr checkout 243
|
|
|
|
# Watch the pipeline in progress
|
|
glab pipeline ci view
|
|
|
|
# View, approve, and merge the merge request
|
|
glab mr view
|
|
glab mr approve
|
|
glab mr merge
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### `glab completion` commands fail when using the 1Password shell plugin
|
|
|
|
The [1Password shell plugin](https://developer.1password.com/docs/cli/shell-plugins/gitlab/)
|
|
adds the alias `glab='op plugin run -- glab'`, which can interfere with the `glab completion`
|
|
command. If your `glab completion` commands fail, configure your shell to prevent expanding aliases
|
|
before performing completions:
|
|
|
|
- For Zsh, edit your `~/.zshrc` file and add this line:
|
|
|
|
```plaintext
|
|
setopt completealiases
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- For Bash, edit your `~/.bashrc` file and add this line:
|
|
|
|
```plaintext
|
|
complete -F _functionname glab
|
|
```
|
|
