Go Modules Cheat Sheet

At least for Gitlab, you can write a .netrc in the user‘s home dir like so:

machine <your GitLab domain> (e.g. gitlab.com) login <your GitLab id> password <your GitLab personal access token>

For the access token, you can also leverage Gitlab‘s CI Job Token.

What we do is an „echo $(netrc contents with $CI_JOB_TOKEN) > ~/.netrc“ in the pre-script in CI.

If you do take this approach, writing your access token in plaintext into a well-known file in your home directory seems like a strictly worse idea than the (also more broadly-compatible) Git insteadof rule to pull via SSH and your local agent.

Yes, though it should be noted that the access token is only valid for the duration of the Job.
