From YouTube: GitLab Package Registry + Usage quotas Speedrun

Description

In this video we walk through the Group-level view of Usage quotas, which displays how much storage is being used per project.

A

Hello I'm Tim I'm, the p.m. for the pack of stage at get laugh and today, I wanted to record a quick speedrun of something I was working on yesterday, which is how do I know how much storage my group is using for the backup registry. So I created this group called storage counter and in it, I created a bunch of projects for each package manager, format that we support and I published a bunch of packages. So, let's, let's click on the NPM example.

A

So what I have here is a basic package I and some code. So if I click here I could see onto the package tree, I could see that I have four different packages here that have been published, but all with my CI pipeline's. So let's click on one and I see here that the size is 1.33 kilobytes, because it's really nothing in it.

A

But it's hard to know generally, if I just you know, if I click here well, that means I have to click on each package to be able to see how much storage is being used by the package.

A

So that's one option or what I could do is if you're an admin you can navigate to settings oops you have to do it at the group level at the project level. What you can do is go to your group and then go to settings and then to usage quotas, and what this will actually do is show you how many pipeline minutes that you have remaining and then you can see actual storage usage. So here are all the projects that I was referencing a second go in each format and it'll.

A

Tell you how much storage you're using in total and then, if we click to expand NPM I can see here that my repositories is using about 300 kilobytes and the packages is using up about 5.32 kilobytes. Ok, so let's test that and see if it works. So let's go back to our group and let's go click on NPN and what I want to do here is I'm gonna bump my packet version to three point: zero point, one which will kick off a new pipeline and create a new package.

A

A

And commit changes.

A

So let's go back to the usage quotas page, so remember it's the group level and then settings and then you go to usage quotas and then storage and then I'm going to expand this and I see four packages that right now it's 5.3, two kilobytes.

A

Ok, let's check the status of our pipeline here.

A

It's still running.

A

We'll pause for a minute while we wait for the pipeline to finish running.

A

Ok, I, see that my pipeline finish running and that the job succeeded in that we published a new package called storage, counter n PM 3.0 point, and if we go now and navigate to the packet registry.

A

Here's that three point zero point: one I could see move myself there I could see that it was published off the master and which come in about 28 seconds ago.

A

Okay. So this should add one point: four, four kilobytes to our storage usage, so 5.3 I'm expecting that that will be six point. Seven six.

A

And it is cool okay, so that that works. That's so, if you haven't used this this page before, that's how you do it I should let you know that for pi PI packages and you get packages that the that the storage figure is not currently included. So, if you publish actually I could see here, zero bytes are currently being used for packages, but that's not the case. There are actually I do have NuGet packages and I do have ipi packages.

A

That's something that we'll be working on in the next milestone to make sure that these numbers are accurate, but for in general, that's how you use it. If you have any questions, of course, reach out to me to busy at get laughs, calm.
