## Status codes ## Status codes
The API is designed to return different status codes according to context and action. In this way The API is designed to return different status codes according to context and action. In this way if a request results in an error the caller is able to get insight into what went wrong, e.g. status code `400 Bad Request` is returned if a required attribute is missing from the request. The following list gives an overview of how the API functions generally behave.
if a request results in an error the caller is able to get insight into what went wrong, e.g.

The following list gives an overview of how the API functions generally behave.
API request types: API request types:
* `GET` requests access one or more resources and return the result as JSON - `GET` requests access one or more resources and return the result as JSON
* `POST` requests return `201 Created` if the resource is successfully created and return the newly created resource as JSON - `POST` requests return `201 Created` if the resource is successfully created and return the newly created resource as JSON
* `GET`, `PUT` and `DELETE` return `200 Ok` if the resource is accessed, modified or deleted successfully, the (modified) result is returned as JSON - `GET`, `PUT` and `DELETE` return `200 Ok` if the resource is accessed, modified or deleted successfully, the (modified) result is returned as JSON
* `DELETE` requests are designed to be idempotent, meaning a request a resource still returns `200 Ok` even it was deleted before or is not available. The reasoning behind it is the user is not really interested if the resource existed before or not. - `DELETE` requests are designed to be idempotent, meaning a request a resource still returns `200 Ok` even it was deleted before or is not available.

* `401 Unauthorized` - The user is not authenticated, a valid user token is necessary, see above - `401 Unauthorized` - The user is not authenticated, a valid user token is necessary, see above
* `403 Forbidden` - The request is not allowed, e.g. the user is not allowed to delete a project - `403 Forbidden` - The request is not allowed, e.g. the user is not allowed to delete a project
* `404 Not Found` - A resource could not be accessed, e.g. an ID for a resource could not be found - `404 Not Found` - A resource could not be accessed, e.g. an ID for a resource could not be found

## Sudo ## Sudo
All API requests support performing an api call as if you were another user, if your private token is for an administration account. You need to pass `sudo` parameter by url or header with an id or username of the user you want to perform the operation as. If passed as header, the header name must be "SUDO" (capitals).

It uses Nginx or Apache as a web front end to proxypass the Unicorn web server. By default, communication between Unicorn and the front end is via a Unix domain socket but forwarding requests via TCP is also supported. The web front end accesses `/home/git/gitlab/public` bypassing the Unicorn server to serve static pages, uploads (e.g. avatar images or attachments), and precompiled assets. GitLab serves web pages and a [GitLab API](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/tree/master/doc/api) using the Unicorn web server. It uses Sidekiq as a job queue which, in turn, uses redis as a non-persistent database backend for job information, meta data, and incomming jobs.

The GitLab web app uses MySQL or PostgreSQL for persistent database information (e.g. users, permissions, issues, other meta data).
GitLab stores the bare git repositories it serves in `/home/git/repositories` by default.
It also keeps default branch and hook information with the bare repository.
`/home/git/gitlab-satellites` keeps checked out repositories when performing actions such as a merge request, editing files in the web interface, etc.
The satellite repository is used by the web interface for editing repositories and the wiki which is also a git repository.
When serving repositories over HTTP/HTTPS GitLab utilizes the GitLab API to resolve authorization and access as well as serving git objects.
The add-on component gitlab-shell serves repositories over SSH.
It manages the SSH keys within `/home/git/.ssh/authorized_keys` which should not be manually edited.
gitlab-shell accesses the bare repositories directly to serve git objects and communicates with redis to submit jobs to Sidekiq for GitLab to process.
gitlab-shell queries the GitLab API to determine authorization and access.

GitLab has several components to operate. GitLab has several components to operate. As a system user (i.e. any user that is not the `git` user) it requires a persistent database (MySQL/PostreSQL) and redis database. It also uses Apache httpd or nginx to proxypass Unicorn. As the `git` user it starts Sidekiq and Unicorn (a simple ruby HTTP server running on port `8080` by default). Under the gitlab user there are normally 4 processes: `unicorn_rails master` (1 process), `unicorn_rails worker` (2 processes), `sidekiq` (1 process).

As the `git` user it starts Sidekiq and Unicorn (a simple ruby HTTP server running on port `8080` by default).
Under the gitlab user there are normally 4 processes: `unicorn_rails master` (1 process), `unicorn_rails worker` (2 processes), `sidekiq` (1 process).

GitLab uses [Omniauth](http://www.omniauth.org/) for authentication and already ships with a few providers preinstalled (e.g. LDAP, GitHub, Twitter). But sometimes that is not enough and you need to integrate with other authentication solutions. For these cases you can use the Omniauth provider.

These steps are fairly general and you will need to figure out the exact details from the Omniauth provider's documentation. These steps are fairly general and you will need to figure out the exact details from the Omniauth provider's documentation.
* Stop GitLab - Stop GitLab:
`sudo service gitlab stop`
* Add provider specific configuration options to your `config/gitlab.yml` (you can use the [auth providers section of the example config](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/config/gitlab.yml.example) as a reference) sudo service gitlab stop
* Add the gem to your [Gemfile](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/Gemfile) - Add the gem to your [Gemfile](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/Gemfile):
`gem "omniauth-your-auth-provider"`
* If you're using MySQL, install the new Omniauth provider gem by running the following command:
`sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test postgres --path vendor/bundle --no-deployment`
* If you're using PostgreSQL, install the new Omniauth provider gem by running the following command: gem "omniauth-your-auth-provider"
`sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test mysql --path vendor/bundle --no-deployment`
> These are the same commands you used in the [Install Gems section](#install-gems) with `--path vendor/bundle --no-deployment` instead of `--deployment`. - If you're using MySQL, install the new Omniauth provider gem by running the following command:
* Start GitLab sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test postgres --path vendor/bundle --no-deployment
`sudo service gitlab start`
- If you're using PostgreSQL, install the new Omniauth provider gem by running the following command:
sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test mysql --path vendor/bundle --no-deployment
### Examples > These are the same commands you used in the [Install Gems section](#install-gems) with `--path vendor/bundle --no-deployment` instead of `--deployment`.
- Start GitLab:

# Features
## Enable usernames and namespaces for user projects
This command will enable the namespaces feature introduced in v4.0. It will move every project in its namespace folder.
Note:
- Because the **repository location will change**, you will need to **update all your git url's** to point to the new location.
- Username can be changed at [Profile / Account](/profile/account)
**Example:**
Old path: `git@example.org:myrepo.git`
New path: `git@example.org:username/myrepo.git` or `git@example.org:groupname/myrepo.git`
```
bundle exec rake gitlab:enable_namespaces RAILS_ENV=production
```
## Rebuild project satellites
This command will build missing satellites for projects. After this you will be able to **merge a merge request** via GitLab and use the **online editor**.
```
bundle exec rake gitlab:satellites:create RAILS_ENV=production
```
Example output:
```
Creating satellite for abcd.git
