Gogs

About

Gogs ( https://gogs.io/docs ) is a Golang powered git service which I've been using for about 10 years now. I still keep a GitHub profile and mirror or duplicate my repos there as well. It's nice to have a backup and to be able to spin up user account for collaboration.

Although it's been forked off as Gitea, I still prefer the original version because of the simplicity and I've watched the owner gracefully handle pull requests. I support the BDFL ( Benevolent Dictator for Life ) approach in open source software because I've found that it mostly helps the project.

Log

23.07.17 - found a domain pointing at the IP proxy so I added a catch-all on the default .conf and this to code.daw to keep the content from showing under another domain.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !code.davidwindham.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [F]

23.02.25 - patch for submodules fixes Issue #6436. Upgrading from v0.12.9 -> v.0.12.11

sudo systemctl stop gogs
mv gogs gogs_old
wget https://dl.gogs.io/0.12.11/gogs_0.12.11_linux_amd64.tar.gz
tar -zxvf gogs_0.12.11_linux_amd64.tar.gz
cp -R gogs_old/{custom,data,log} gogs
sudo systemctl start gogs
# check logs /gogs/log

23.02.10 - upgrading to version 0.12.9 while migrating servers. Dropping supervisor in favor of systemd.

Migration

Moving from Woozer -> to Woozie

#migrate files

scp -P ***** -C -i ~/.ssh/tempkey -p -r ******@45.79.219.165:/home/david/gogs-repositories /home/******

mv gogs gogs_old
wget https://dl.gogs.io/$VERSION/gogs_${VERSION}_${OS}_${ARCH}.tar.gz
tar -zxvf gogs_${VERSION}_${OS}_${ARCH}.tar.gz
cp -R gogs_old/{custom,data,log} gogs
rm -rf gogs/custom/templates

sudo cp /home/******/gogs/scripts/systemd/gogs.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo vi /etc/systemd/system/gogs.service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl start gogs
sudo truncate -s 0 log/gogs.log

I also found that the .tar and .zip file archives were taking up a considerable amount of space so I'll be removing them along with the option to download since it's rarely ever used except by bots.

I had made a bunch of customizations on the previous install which I'll bring up to the newest version. Some of the variable names have changed between versions and the templates are now packaged inside of the make file. In order to update the variable names, I just compared the edited templates with the versions from https://github.com/gogs/gogs/tree/v0.12.9/templates/

cd gogs 
cp -R gogs_old/custom/templates/ gogs/custom/templates/
cp -R gogs_old/custom/templates/user gogs/custom/templates/user
cp -R gogs_old/custom/public gogs/custom/
sudo systemctl restart gogs

# create directory for log/backup
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/code.davidawindham.com/{log,backup}
sudo chown david:www-data -R /var/www/code.davidawindham.com/

# on woozer
sudo certbot delete --cert-name code.davidawindham.com

# change the domain -> dns edit
sudo a2ensite code.davidawindham.com.conf
sudo a2dissite cd.davidawindham.com.conf

sudo rm cd.davidawindham.com.conf
sudo certbot --apache -d code.davidawindham.com -d www.code.davidawindham.com
sudo vi gogs/custom/conf/app.ini

# rm the old version
