Awiteb's forgejo personal instance

This is my personal instance of forgejo. the place where I hack.

What is forgejo?

See https://forgejo.org

What is this configurations aims to do?

Is just a personal instance, means that you are only one have rights to do anything. Others are only contributors means that they can only fork your repository and make pull requests and create issues, they can't create repositories.

Imortant notes

After you create your account, you need to change your account visibility to public, by going to your profile and then click on the settings and then change the visibility to public, then change the app.ini and remove the public visibility from the ALLOWED_USER_VISIBILITY_MODES. This will make you the only visible user in the instance.

Secrets

Forgejo will add the secrets to the app.ini file, so make sure to not remove the app.ini file from the repository, and do not share it with anyone.

How to use this configuration?

Just clone this repository, then read the app.ini file and changes the values to your needs, then run the following command:

sed -i -e "s/{SHARED_SECRET}/$(openssl rand -hex 20)/" docker-compose.yml
docker-compose up -d

The instance will be available at http://0.0.0.0:8080 so proxy it to your domain.

Upgrading

When you want to upgrade the forgejo version, change the version in the docker-compose.yml file and then remove the containers by running docker-compose rm -s -f and then run docker-compose up -d again.

Restaring

When you want to restart the forgejo, do not run docker-compose restart I see that makes some changes to the configuration, so it's better to remove the containers by running docker-compose rm -s -f and then run docker-compose up -d again.

Database

Is using sqlite3, and is more than enough for personal use.

Backup

The data is stored in the forgejo directory and forgejo-runner directory, so you can backup them. The containers are stateless, so it's do not store any data.

How to contribute?

Make issue first to discuss the changes, then make pull request (if the issue is accepted)
