Package Registry
Moved to GitLab Core in 13.3.
With the GitLab Package Registry, you can use GitLab as a private or public registry for a variety of common package managers. You can publish and share packages, which can be easily consumed as a dependency in downstream projects.
View packages
You can view packages for your project or group.
- Go to the project or group.
- Go to Packages & Registries > Package Registry.
You can search, sort, and filter packages on this page.
For information on how to create and upload a package, view the GitLab documentation for your package type.
Use GitLab CI/CD to build packages
You can use GitLab CI/CD to build packages.
For Maven, NuGet, NPM, Conan, and PyPI packages, and Composer dependencies, you can
authenticate with GitLab by using the CI_JOB_TOKEN.
CI/CD templates, which you can use to get started, are in this repo.
Learn more about using CI/CD to build Maven packages, NPM packages, Composer packages, NuGet Packages, Conan Packages, PyPI packages, and generic packages.
If you use CI/CD to build a package, extended activity information is displayed when you view the package details:
When using Maven and NPM, you can view which pipeline published the package, as well as the commit and user who triggered it.
Download a package
To download a package:
- Go to Packages & Registries > Package Registry.
- Click the name of the package you want to download.
- In the Activity section, click the name of the package you want to download.
Delete a package
You cannot edit a package after you publish it in the Package Registry. Instead, you must delete and recreate it.
To delete a package, you must have suitable permissions.
You can delete packages by using the API or the UI.
To delete a package in the UI, from your group or project:
- Go to Packages & Registries > Package Registry.
- Find the name of the package you want to delete.
- Click Delete.
The package is permanently deleted.
Disable the Package Registry
The Package Registry is automatically enabled.
If you are using a self-managed instance of GitLab, your administrator can remove the menu item, Packages & Registries, from the GitLab sidebar. For more information, see the administration documentation.
You can also remove the Package Registry for your project specifically:
- In your project, go to Settings > General.
- Expand the Visibility, project features, permissions section and disable the Packages feature.
- Click Save changes.
The Packages & Registries > Package Registry entry is removed from the sidebar.
Package workflows
Learn how to use the GitLab Package Registry to build your own custom package workflow.
- Use a project as a package registry to publish all of your packages to one project.
- Publish multiple different packages from one monorepo project.
