How to clone project from GitLab using SSH key?

-
Why we need to clone project?

This is because we want to get the syncronise coding with the other programmer. Basically, GitLab has their own basic command but to make our work become easier, we will use the tools which is "Sourcetree".





Before we start cloning the project, we must generate SSH key using command prompt. Below are the steps to generate SSH key :

1) Open your Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Mac/Linux) or Git Bash.

2) Paste the command below and use your Git email address 
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C “your_email@barracudacampus.com”
This command is use to generate new ssh key by using the provided email.

3) When you’re prompted to “Enter a file in which to save the key,” press Enter. This will accept the default file location.
Enter a file in which to save the key (/c/Users/you/.ssh/id_rsa):[Press enter]
4) At the prompt, type a secure passphrase. For more information, see “Working with SSH key passphrases”.
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): [Type a passphrase]Enter same passphrase again: [Type passphrase again]



After generate the new SSH key, now you can clone your project. Follow the steps below :

1) Add your new SSH key in Sourcetree: Tools > Add SSH keys

2) Add SSH key in GitLab: Profile > Setting > SSH keys > Paste SSH keys

3) Open GitLab > Project > Select Project 

4) On the right side click Clone > Copy with SSH

5) Open Sourcetree click File > Clone/New > Paste in Source Path/URL

6) Set destination path Browse > C:\xampp\htdocs\smap

7) Click Clone

What Is API? API or known as Application Programming Interface is a intermediate software which allow 2 applications communicate each other. API makes it easier to develop a program by providing building blocks.  When developers create code, they don’t often start from scratch. Fundamental to developer productivity is how  API   make often repeated yet complex processes highly reusable with a little bit of code. The speed that  API   enable developers to build out apps is crucial to the current pace of application development. Developers are now much more productive than they were before since they had to write a lot of code from scratch. With an API they don’t have to reinvent the wheel every time they write a new program. Instead, they can focus on the unique proposition of their applications while outsourcing all of the commodity functionality to APIs. How API Works? API works like a waiter which he/she is the intermediate person between customer ...
