I need to send an email notification from jenkins to the authors of a git commit.

To get git commit authors, I used a sh script:

git_emails = sh ( 
 script: "git log --format='%cE%n%aE%n%gE' $gitLogCommand | sort -u", 
 returnStdout: true 
 ).trim()

Before sending an email, I need to check if the returned authors are blocked or not in Gitlab.

is any one have an idea how to do that ! Thank you.

Edit: Block user from Gitlab

• Go here (or rather, the equivalent setting on your private GitLab: User Settings > Access Tokens) and generate an access token with read_user permission. Be sure to copy it, or you'll never see it again (and you'll have to make a new one).



• 
  

  You can issue this command:

  
  
  

  curl -H "Private-Token: $token" "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/users/?username=$username"
  

  
  
  

  where $token is the token you created, and $username the GitLab username of the user you want to check. (Again, you will probably need to adjust the URL to match where your GitLab is, I don't think you're talking about gitlab.com here.) You can also search by email, using search=$email instead of username=$username.

  
  
  

  You will get a JSON. One of the fields is state, which can be active or blocked. You can use the jq utility, or any higher programming language, to parse the JSON and find the value of the state field.

  
  
  

  Alternately, you can append &active=true; this way, you get the user if he's unblocked, or an empty array () if blocked. This would be easier to test in bash, as you simply need to see if the result is "" or not. (You can also have the opposite test with &blocked=true to only return the user(s) if blocked.)

  
  

You can find the relevant documentation here.
