Rest API to search a string in all the repositories in Bitbucket?

Hello Friends,

I would like to search a string in all the Bitbucket server repositories using Rest API.

I can search the code from the Bitbucket Server "Search Box" but it is not possible if there are multiple strings to search and generate a report.

a common use case would be- search all repositories where a common password is exposed.

Is there any Rest API available or could you suggest any workaround?

Thank you2018-09-26 18_18_16-Projects - Bitbucket.png

Hi @amit raj 

 

After upgrade Bitbucket data-center 7.6.0 and upgrade elasticsearch 6.8.6, I'm getting error like below.

 

Do you have any idea regarding this problem?

 

{
"error": {
"root_cause": [ {
"type": "index_not_found_exception",
"reason": "no such index",
"resource.type": "index_or_alias",
"resource.id": "bitbucket-search-v1",
"index_uuid": "_na_",
"index": "bitbucket-search-v1"
}],
"type": "index_not_found_exception",
"reason": "no such index",
"resource.type": "index_or_alias",
"resource.id": "bitbucket-search-v1",
"index_uuid": "_na_",
"index": "bitbucket-search-v1"
},
"status": 404
}

Hi All,

 I was able to search a string using ELS Rest api. 

this is the the endpoint-

http://<ELSEARCHURL>:9200/bitbucket-search-v1/_search?size=1000&from=0&q=<string-to-search>

eg. if your Bitbucket ELS is hosted on 192.168.10.1 at port 9200 and you would like to search the string "Test"

http://192.168.10.1:9200/bitbucket-search-v1/_search?size=1000&from=0&q=test

please note that it is huge search you need to iterate the loop until search does not find a string.

I wrote a small python program to do that.

Thank you

Hi Amit,

Nice script! 

One problem is that it returns repositoryId and projectId, but not the repo/project name. Is there a way to look up repo/project name by id? Also, is there any way to tell which branch in the repo that the search string was found (as a repo could have a lot of branches)?

Thanks,

Mary

I think we can do something using elastic search Rest endpoints as Bitbucket usage elastic search behind the scene, working on it.

Hi @amit raj , have you any luck ? I am also looking for same feature in bitbucket api.

Hi @amit raj,

This link will be helpful. Bitbucket code search API is now available

Thank you Edwin , I think this is only for Bitbucket Cloud, doesn't work for Bitbucket Server.
