从 gitlab 存储库中获取最新的 package

Question

I need to get the latest package from my gitlab repository

My repo's packages url is in this format <BASE_URL>/-/packages/<version-id>

And the download url as <BASE_URL>/-/packages/<version-id>/download

In my docker file I refer it (hardcode version) for example as:

ARG BUNDLE_URL="<BASE_URL>/-/packages/210/download"
RUN curl ${BUNDLE_URL} -o /app/bundle.tar.gz

So my question is, there is any way to download the latest version directly from gitlab, for example to download a url like this <BASE_URL>/-/packages/latest/download or something similar?

Also if the above is not possible there is a way to get in the dockerfile the latest version number and put it on this url format <BASE_URL>/-/packages/<version-id>/download ?

I need this to make the docker file more generic

Thanks in advance,

To your first question, the easiest I guess would be to use the GitLab packages API . The first one lists packages from a project/a group, sorted from most recent to oldest.

If your group/project is public, you won't need any token to access the API. Else you might provide a Group Access Token with read_api scope only.
