List repositories and clone urls that are associated with an org

[PatDyn]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Automated listing of repositories that are owned by a specified organization - along with their clone urls. Simillar to what the gitlab terraform provider allows: https://registry.terraform.io/providers/gitlabhq/gitlab/latest/docs/data-sources/projects

Describe alternatives you've considered With the current provider its not possible to do this.

Additional context It would be helpful for mirroring lots of repos from one instance of gitea/forgejo to another.

Hi @PatDyn , i think this is possible to implement using the gitea sdk. i'll try to come up with something to get this done. Thanks for raising this :smiley:

[Lerentis]

Release with this feature will be there shortly. with that you can do something like

resource "gitea_org" "org1" {
  name = "org1"
}

resource "gitea_repository" "repo1_in_org1" {
  username = gitea_org.org1.name
  name     = "repo1-in-org1"
}

data "gitea_repo" "org_repos" {
  name = each.key
  username = gitea_org.org1.name
  for_each = {
    for repo in resource.gitea_org.org1.repos : repo => repo
  }
}

output "repos" {
  value = data.gitea_repo.org_repos["repo1-in-org1"].clone_url
}

of cause you can iterate over it :smiley:

[PatDyn]

This looks great, thanks for looking into it!

So, i tried this just now: It seems, that i have to create a gitea_org first to access the repos it owns? My original thought was accessing the data of an existing org e.g. reading from a datasource. Sorry for not being clear about that. Maybe something like that would be feasible?

data "gitea_org" "org1" {}

data "gitea_repo" "org_repos" { name = each.key username = gitea_org.org1.name for_each = { for repo in data.gitea_org.org1.repos : repo => repo } }

(Notice, we are accessing the data source here)

[Lerentis]

You can just pass the name of the organization as a string without the need to have it managed by terraform. No need to create another data resource

[PatDyn]

I'm a little confused as to where to pass that string. The for expression seems to be the wrong place. This is what i tried (and failed).

data "gitea_repo" "all_repos" { name = each.key username = "some-org" for_each = { for repo in "some-org": repo => repo }
}

Which yields the following error:

│ Error: Iteration over non-iterable value
│ 
│   on gitea_datasources.tf line 5, in data "gitea_repo" "all_repos":
│    4:     for_each = {

│    6:     }
