Import all CI/CD variables from Gitlab API and add them to the bash shell for further usage. Made for Ubuntu. Can be combined neatly with Cloud IDEs such as goormIDE to always load the project CI variables into the editor.

import-gitlab-variables.sh

#!/bin/bash
# works with /bin/sh as well
# requires sudo permission
apt-get -y install jq

curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/1/variables" | 
	jq -c '.[]' |
while IFS=$"\n" read -r c; do
    key=$(echo "$c" | jq -r '.key')
	val=$(echo "$c" | jq -r '.value')
	type=$(echo "$c" | jq -r '.variable_type')
	
	if [[ "$type" == "file" ]]
	then
		echo "$val" > "/root/$key"
		echo "export $key=/root/$key" >> ~/.bashrc
	else
		echo "export $key=$val" >> ~/.bashrc
	fi
done

source ~/.bashrc

Thanks :)
