@Marvin how to load a GitLabRepository block?

To load a

GitLabRepository

block in Prefect, you need to follow these general steps: 1. Create the

GitLabRepository

block with the necessary details such as repository URL and access token. 2. Use the Prefect UI or write the

prefect.yaml

configuration file to reference that block. Here's an example of how you might define it in your `prefect.yaml`:

yaml
pull:
  - prefect.deployments.steps.git_clone: 
      repository: <https://gitlab.com/org/my-private-repo.git>
      access_token: "{{ prefect.blocks.secret.my-block-name }}"

Before this, ensure that you have created the necessary

Secret

block that will contain your GitLab access token, as this is what will be referenced in the

prefect.yaml

. The access token should have the appropriate scopes to access the repository (such as

read_repository

). To create and use the

GitLabRepository

block, you may need to install any necessary Prefect library extensions and register the blocks if applicable, similar to how one would do for GitHub with

prefect-github

as mentioned in the document excerpt. These steps are not exact and you'll need to consult the official Prefect documentation for detailed instructions appropriate to your version and usage of Prefect. The exact procedures may differ depending on the version of Prefect and specific configurations of your environment.
