How to clone all the repos of a specific project to the local system

[sreekanth M]

I know how to clone the single repo to the local system.

let's assume i have the project of X and having 10 reops. i wanted to clone all the repos related to the project X all at once, instead  of cloning every repo one of after the other.

Hello @sreekanth M,

Unfortunately this is not possible because Git and Mercurial don't have any concept of a group of repositories, so you can only clone repositories one by one.

This process, however, can be automated with a script:

• You can get a list of all repositories in a project using REST API call to /2.0/repositories/{username} endpoint and BBQL filter query project.key="PROJECT_KEY", for example:
  

  https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/atlassian?q=project.key%3D%22BUILDENG%22

  
  You can additionally get only the fields you need – in your case it's probably just the clone URL. I also included fields related to the pagination – the script should walk through all the pages (although it might be enough to simply increase the page size up to 100 items).
  

  https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/atlassian?q=project.key%3D%22BUILDENG%22&fields=values.links.clone.*,size,next,page

• You can then fetch each repository using these URLs. Multiple clone operations can be run at once, so it shouldn't necessarily be serial process.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers,
Daniil
