GitLab integration for CloudScript Content Management

Gahh no votes left, but YES!! They are famous for competing insanely with GitHub on every level. Best of all (for playfab devs), they are pros at migration and API's. You can even import a project from GitHub in 1 click. They make everything easy.

* Free, unlimited 10gb repos (GitHub is 1gb per repo)

* Both private and public (GitHub is public only, then charges for private)

* You can host your own server (complicated, but has many benefits, including unlimited storage + pipelines)

* They have their own native pipeline. So I could build a Unity game, push it, have the pipeline push it straight to Steam.

They are godsend, and recently (today) transferred everything to GitLab to prep to cancel my private github monthly fee.

I'm gonna bump this up so that PlayFab can move this to the Add-on Marketplace forum that I just realize existed. +1 on Gitlab though.

This would be very helpful. GitHub doesn't have private repositories in a free tier, but GitLab does, and all of our other web based stuff is in GitLab, so it would make it convenient. I am guessing this is going to be hard to get PlayFab to do since they are now owned by Microsoft and Microsoft also has or will be purchasing GitHub.

As it stands the ability to use GitHub is useless to us, but the ability to use GitLab would be very beneficial.

If anyone's interested this is how we setup CloudScript source control with GitLab:

You just need to set the following variables in your CI/CD settings: PLAYFAB_TITLE_ID_RETAIL, PLAYFAB_TITLE_ID_SANDBOX, PLAYFAB_SECRET_KEY, CI_PRIVATE_TOKEN

workflow:
    rules:
        - if: $CI_COMMIT_TAG
          when: never
        - when: always
    
stages:
    - deploy

    $body = @{
        CustomTags = @{

            CommitSha = $CI_COMMIT_SHA
        }
        Files = @()
        Publish = $false
    }
    
    Get-ChildItem -Filter *.js -Recurse | % {
        $body.Files += @{

    $body = $body | ConvertTo-Json
    
    if ($CI_COMMIT_REF -eq "master")
    {
        $playFabTitleId = $PLAYFAB_TITLE_ID_RETAIL
    }
    else

    $result = $result | ForEach-Object { $_ }
    if ($result.code -eq 200)

        $version = $result.data.Version
        Write-Output "version > $version"

        Write-Output "error > $result.error"
    }
