Usage

Dependencies

Installation

  1. Get code from repository:
git clone https://gitbucket.pgollor.de/git/docker/gitbucket.git
cd gitbucket
  1. Execute install script
./install.sh
  1. Change the confoguration and start with:
docker-compose up -d
  1. Open 127.0.0.1:8080 and be habby. :-) Default user and passwort are both root.

Configuration

Please use the configuration file gitbucket.conf for your personal changes.

Update

Update your gitbucket image in three steps. But first of all: MAKE A BACKUP!!! Without backup the host ssh keys will be lost.

from 4.19.3 to 4.20.0

You have to backup your gitbucket.conf because this config does not exist in the repository any more. You have to manage the config file manually. The new install script will create a local config fiel as copy from gitbucket.conf.example and generate new passwords.

from 4.27.0 to 4.28.0

To prevent error messages (like: [Warning] InnoDB: Table mysql/innodb_table_stats has length mismatch in the column name table_name. Please run mysql_upgrade) for mariadb. Go to the directory where the docker-compose.yml file is located and execute the following commands:

source gitbucket.conf
docker-compose exec mysql-gitbucket sh -c 'exec mysql_upgrade -uroot -p"${MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD}"'

do update

  1. Commit your local changes. Changes in gitbucket.conf will be ignored! Pull changes from repository master via git pull or git merge.

  2. Backup

./ backup_and_restore.sh backup all
  1. get the new image Shutdown and remove your images. This will not delete your mysql database volume.
docker-compose down

After that get the new image and start it:

docker-compose pull
docker-compose up -d --remove-orphans
  1. cleanup your docker environment This step is optional. Please only do this if you understand the next line.
docker rmi -f $(docker images -f "dangling=true" -q)
  1. restore ssh keys
./ backup_and_restore.sh restore sshkeys

Plugins

To use plugins download the plugin and move it into data/plugins. After that restart the gitbucket container with docker-compose restart main-gitbucket.

Backup

Since 4.30.0 the backupplugin is included. Automatic backup for repository works, but the E-Mail notification does not work yet. If you want a full backup, please use backup.sh like:

./backup.sh backup all
  • Plese check if COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME exists in your local gitbucket.conf!!!
  • You have to be install the pbzip2 package! For debian systems: apt-get install pbzip2

Full Backup via backup.sh

For backuping the mysql database and the repositories you could use the backup.sh script and combine it with a daily cronjob. This script will create a compressed backup and keep the files 10 days in the backup directory. All files which are older then 10 days will be deleted.

Troubleshooting

Error 503 on first start

Please check the gitbucket log files with

docker-compose logs main-gitbucket

If you get Could not connect to address=(host=172.22.2.251) as error: Please restart the gitbucket container with docker-compose restart main-gitbucket because the mariadb container needs some time to run completly at the first start. After that it should be work. If doesn't please contact me via [email protected] because gitbucket does not allow issues for guests.

until commit 5b1fbf92174d914a4546910c7eb55f66527d859b

You have to remove the gitbucket-network once, because this network is no longer port of the docker-compose file

TODO

  • maybe a nginx container with ssl???
