You're right. This was kinda unpythonic before. Thanks for the change! |

There's a quirk in the
CreateMixin
when checking for required attributes in_check_missing_create_attrs
, which requires a data dict. But some create methods don't require additional data, e.g. if the only required attribute is already provided by their parent manager id (e.g. for project export, seehttps://docs.gitlab.com/ee/api/project_import_export.html).This means the docs are sometimes asking people to pass an empty dict which I think is confusing for newcomers (and maybe unpythonic?).
This small fix allows using
create()
without passing a dict. TheUpdateMixin
is doing something similar withnew_data = new_data or {}
but I thought this is a bit more explicit with None.I didn't add any checks as the data is already validated in
_check_missing_create_attrs
based on each Manager's_create_attrs
and is already tested (see below), so I hope I covered everything :)python-gitlab/gitlab/tests/test_mixins.py
