How to sync selected repositories / groups on Gitlab

[illagrenan]

Thanks for a great project. I'm trying to sync git repositories with self-hosted Gitlab and would like to sync only repositories from a specific group:

https://gitlab.example.com/my-group/my-project/

This is my configuration:

{
  "$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sourcebot-dev/sourcebot/main/schemas/index.json",
  "configs": [
    {
      "type": "gitlab",
      "gitlabURL": "https://gitlab.example.com",
      "Name": "^(my-group/.*|my-other-group/.*)$"
    }
  ]
}

In the log, I see that zoekt-mirror-gitlab is getting the configuration like this:

run [zoekt-mirror-gitlab -dest /data/.sourcebot/repos -url https://gitlab.example.com -name ^(my-group/.*|my-other-group/.*)$]

And yet, no repositories are synchronized. I'd say I have the regex wrong, but I haven't found any additional info on this.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Hey thanks for the issue! I looked into this and it's a pretty subtle bug. When performing the filtering in zoekt-mirror-gitlab, zoekt is using the name_with_namespace field of the project to filter on. Looking at the GitLab docs reveals that name_with_namespace has spaces between group, /, and the repository:

The regex is therefore not matching. I validated that using ^(my-group /.*|my-other-group /.*)$ (notice the space) worked.

What we really want to use is path_with_namespace so we don't have to deal with this. Will make a fix now.

Just released v1.0.2 with the fix - let me know if it fixed it for you!
