List snippets owned by the current user:

snippets = gl.snippets.list()

List the public snippets:

public_snippets = gl.snippets.list_public()

List all snippets:

all_snippets = gl.snippets.list_all()

Get a snippet:

snippet = gl.snippets.get(snippet_id)
# get the content
content = snippet.content()

Create a snippet:

snippet = gl.snippets.create({'title': 'snippet1',
                              'files': [{
                                  'file_path': 'foo.py',
                                  'content': 'import gitlab'
                               }],
                            })

Update the snippet attributes:

snippet.visibility_level = gitlab.const.Visibility.PUBLIC
snippet.save()

To update a snippet code you need to create a ProjectSnippet object:

snippet = gl.snippets.get(snippet_id)
project = gl.projects.get(snippet.projec_id, lazy=True)
editable_snippet = project.snippets.get(snippet.id)
editable_snippet.code = new_snippet_content
editable_snippet.save()

Delete a snippet:

gl.snippets.delete(snippet_id)
# or
snippet.delete()

Get user agent detail (admin only):

detail = snippet.user_agent_detail()
