* Background
-Have you ever used GitLab to host your source code, moved to a different
-host, and wanted to delete everything from your GitLab account? Well,
-this post covers any scenario where you would want to delete all
-repositories from your GitLab account.

-For me, I currently maintain around 30 repositories and don't like to
-manually delete them whenever I switch host. GitHub has a few different
-tools online to delete all repositories for you, but I have not found
-anything similar for GitLab, so I needed an alternative solution.

* Use a Python Script
** Requirements
-Before we look at the script, make sure you know your GitLab username.
-Next, [[https://gitlab.com/-/profile/personal_access_tokens][create an
-authorization token]] so that the Python script can delete your
-repositories. Don't lose this token or else you'll need to create a new
-one.

** Create the Script
-To run a Python script, you must first create it. Open a terminal and
-enter the following commands in whichever directory you prefer to store
-the script. You can do the same things in a file manager if you prefer.
