GitLab issues, wiki, CI support

[ghost]

(Sorry if I missed this already planned somewhere.) I wonder if there's any possibility to add support for GitLab collaborative features (beyond just the git repos):

• CI / Runner
• Issues
• Merge requests
• Wiki

It's in our plan but I can't estimate when it will be. The GitLab API is so similar to GitHub one, so it won't be difficult to have it soon but we need to improve the GitHub backend first.
In any case, we will keep you posted about this.

Hi @downeym, I think @jgbarah has been working in something for it

Hi, @downeym

For issues and (partially) merge requests, there is some support in https://github.com/jgbarah/perceval/tree/gitlab

It is almost functional, but I couldn't write the tests, and propose a pull request to upstream Perceval. Besides, maybe now would need some update.

I have it in my todo list, but not that high nowadays, sorry...

In any case, help is welcome ;-)

Hi @downeym

#252 provides supports for GitLab issues, notes and their emojis. This backend should be integrated soon to the codebase
