h44z / gitlab_to_gitea Goto Github PK

Thanks for this great script!

I used it to migrate my Gitlab 15.11.9 instance to Gitea 1.20.5.

FYI:
Since I have a reverse proxy which adds SSl, I got the following warning which in the end leads to failure:

migrate.py:54: UserWarning: The base URL in the server response differs from the user-provided base URL (https://git.home.***.ch -> http://gitlab-15.11).
This is usually caused by a misconfigured base URL on your side or a misconfigured external_url on the server side, and can lead to broken pagination and unexpected behavior. If this is intentional, use `keep_base_url=True` when initializing the Gitlab instance to keep the user-provided base URL. (python-gitlab: ***/gitlab/client.py:603)
  gl.auth()

Adding keep_base_url=True to gl = gitlab.Gitlab() solved the issue and the migration was successful.

The function get_user_or_group only works with users, not with groups. Adding an org option might fix it

Hi, I'm not familiar with python, so I can't figure it out. Could you help, what I can miss? Installation of requirements passed fine, but running the script isn't.

# python3 -V
Python 3.5.3

# python3 migrate.py
  File "migrate.py", line 69
    label_response: requests.Response = gitea_api.get("/repos/" + owner + "/" + repo + "/labels")
                  ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I'm getting a lot of user doesn't have access to repo errors while migrating, even tho I'm supposed to be the one creating the repos right?

import failed: {"message":"Authentication failed: Clone: exit status 128 - remote: HTTP Basic: Access denied\nfatal: Authentication failed

this can fix it #22

after fixed，it is ok now

Project mall-microservice not found in Gitea, importing!
ESC[94mProject mall-microservice imported!ESC[0m

Any idea how to solve this?

Hello,

Gitea 1.12.4 importing GitLab 13.3.5, Python 3.8.

I've imported ~ 120 repositories across five organizations. All worked really well. Note I don't use issues, CI/CD, etc in GitLab.

However, in Gitea when I compare commits and click on "View File" I get a 404 error. At first I thought this was a proxy problem and fought it via Nginx for quite some time. Eventually after no relief, I went back and did a few manual imports through the Gitea front end (menu / new migration). The same project imported that way does not give the 404 error when attempting to view the same file; all projects I imported using this method come in without the error, while 100% of the script imports have the problem.

Is there anything I can do to assist or troubleshoot?

Best,
--J

Codeberg is based on Forgejo, which is a soft fork of Gitea so it should work, right?

Hi,

any sugest?

thank you

Hi,

it seems this script only does a full migration. It would be nice if a target organisation could be specified into which the repositories are migrated. Similarly, it would be great if as source URL a GitLab group could be given.

Hi,

maybe I need a little bit more steps.
I tried your script with python 3.7.4
and installed pygitea and python-gitlab via pip.
I configured the user source with ldap in gitea and tried
to import everything else with the script.
I get this bug:

No public keys for user feng, importing!
