Integrations / GitLab
Your GitLab repos and the reasoning behind them.
Oynix parses your GitLab repositories and merge requests into one knowledge graph — self-managed instances included.
$ oynix connect gitlabPrerequisites
- A GitLab access token (read_api / read_repository).
- The Oynix CLI installed and signed in (oynix login).
Setup steps
Install the Oynix CLI
Everything Oynix does runs from one small command-line tool on your own machine — there's nothing to deploy or host. Open your terminal (Terminal on Mac, PowerShell on Windows) and paste this in to install it:
$ curl -fsSL https://get.oynix.dev | sh- Don't have a terminal open? On Mac press ⌘+Space, type "Terminal", hit Enter.
- Paste the line, press Enter, and wait for it to finish — that's it.
- Check it installed: run oynix --version (it should print a version number).
Sign in
Tell Oynix who you are. This opens your browser to sign in with GitHub and links this computer to your workspace — it's how your edits, decisions and presence get attributed to you.
$ oynix login- Run the command; your browser opens automatically.
- Approve the sign-in with GitHub, then return to the terminal.
- If your team uses a workspace key, paste it when asked (a teammate with the master key issues it).
Create a token
GitLab → Preferences → Access Tokens. For self-hosted, note your GitLab host URL too.
Connect GitLab
Run the command. Paste your token and the repo (owner/name); add your host URL if self-hosted; pick code, PRs, or both.
$ oynix connect gitlabSync anytime
Oynix indexes the repo and links merge requests to the code they changed.
$ oynix connectors sync gitlabCheck it worked
List your connectors to confirm GitLab shows up and is syncing. Once it's synced, ask the graph a question that should now have an answer from GitLab.
$ oynix connectors- You should see GitLab listed as "connected".
- Try it: oynix ask "what did we decide about …?" — answers can now draw on GitLab.
What gets indexed
