package_url vs private_package_repository_url

[chanansh]

what is the different between these parameters? how can I update the project later with a new url? Do you know which url should I put for a private gitlab in the project? It's not clear from gitlab documentation. It supposed to be https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/<project_id>/packages/pypi but that does not work.

See the Template parameters section of the README [1].

To answer your questions:

1. package_url should be the URL to your repository, e.g. https://gitlab.com/{username}/{project_name}
2. private_package_repository_url should be of the form https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/{project_id}/packages/pypi/simple for GitLab. You can find the project_id just below your GitLab project's name if you go to the package_url.

how can I edit those AFTER the project was created with cookiecutter?

For those two parameters, all you need to do is a find & replace of the previous value and the new value across your project (make sure to replace all instances of the old value with the new value, including e.g. in .cruft.json!).

Closing this as I assume it is resolved.
