Create a token#

To install packages from GITZ’s GitLab Package Registry you’ll need to create a personal token. Go to https://git.rz.tu-bs.de/-/profile/personal_access_tokens and create a personal token with the read_api scope. You can give it any name and expiration date you want.

After clicking “Create personal access token”, you’ll be shown your created token. This is the only time you’ll see it, so make sure to copy it to not lose it!

Enable VPN#

Access to most parts of the GITZ infrastructure is closed for people not affiliated with the university. For good measure, enable your VPN.

Install the package#

To install the package, execute the following command:

pip install latexbuddy --extra-index-url https://__token__:<your_personal_token>@git.rz.tu-bs.de/api/v4/projects/585/packages/pypi/simple

Don’t forget to replace <your_personal_token> with the token, generated in the previous step!
