### Python-GitLab

We include a basic GitLab API wrapper class in this library. We will include specific API wrapper functions in the future.
Our wrapper class and specific wrappers were created when [python-gitlab](https://python-gitlab.readthedocs.io/en/stable/) was in a much earlier state,
so we continued to use our wrapper instead of switching to python-gitlab

For generic requests to the GitLab API, our wrapper is more lightweight than python-gitlab,
but python-gitlab is a great option for more complex API scripts
