List project topics on the GitLab instance:

topics = gl.topics.list()

Get a specific topic by its ID:

topic = gl.topics.get(topic_id)

Create a new topic:

topic = gl.topics.create({"name": "my-topic", "title": "my title"})

Update a topic:

topic.description = "My new topic"
topic.save()

# or
gl.topics.update(topic_id, {"description": "My new topic"})

Delete a topic:

topic.delete()

# or
gl.topics.delete(topic_id)

Merge a source topic into a target topic:

gl.topics.merge(topic_id, target_topic_id)
