## Install

```bash
$ npm install @semantic-release/gitlab -D
```

## Usage

The plugin can be configured in the [**semantic-release** configuration file](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release/blob/caribou/docs/usage/configuration.md#configuration):

```json
{
  "plugins": [
    "@semantic-release/commit-analyzer",
    "@semantic-release/release-notes-generator",
    ["@semantic-release/gitlab", {
      "gitlabUrl": "https://custom.gitlab.com"
    }],
  ]
}
```

With this example [GitLab releases](https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/workflow/releases.html) will be published to the `https://custom.gitlab.com` instance.
