$ glab issue view ${issue_number} --web
try on your machine
This command is using the "glab" command-line tool to view a specific issue on GitLab. Here is a breakdown of the different parts:
- "glab": This is the command-line tool that provides a streamlined GitLab workflow. It allows you to interact with GitLab repositories directly from the command line.
- "issue": This is one of the commands available in the "glab" tool related to issues on GitLab.
- "view": This subcommand is used to view detailed information about a specific issue.
- "${issue_number}": This placeholder should be replaced with the number or ID of the issue you want to view. For example, if the issue number is 123, you would replace "${issue_number}" with "123".
- "--web": This flag will open the issue in a web browser instead of displaying it in the command line interface. Using this flag will open the issue's details page on GitLab's web interface, allowing you to see the issue's description, comments, assignees, labels, and other relevant information in a graphical user interface.
In summary, running this command with a specific issue number will retrieve and display the detailed information about that issue, either in the command line or in a web browser, depending on whether the "--web" flag is included.
