To ensure that the GitLab token is masked in the response from the `GET
/projects/{projectName}` endpoint, you can use the `Sanitize` method defined in
the `GitlabConn` and `GitlabConnection` structs. This method replaces the token
with a sanitized version.
Here is the relevant code snippet that shows how the `Sanitize` method is
used:
```go
func (conn *GitlabConn) Sanitize() GitlabConn {
conn.Token = utils.SanitizeString(conn.Token)
return *conn
}
func (connection GitlabConnection) Sanitize() GitlabConnection {
connection.GitlabConn = connection.GitlabConn.Sanitize()
return connection
}
```
To ensure the token is masked in the response, you should call the
`Sanitize` method on the `GitlabConnection` object before returning it in the
response of the `GET /projects/{projectName}` endpoint. Here is an example of
how you might do this:
```go
func GetProjectHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
// Assume you have a function to get the GitlabConnection object
connection := getGitlabConnectionFromRequest(r)
// Sanitize the connection to mask the token
sanitizedConnection := connection.Sanitize()
// Return the sanitized connection in the response
json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(sanitizedConnection)
}
```
This ensures that the token is masked in the response, protecting sensitive
information
