Gogs (Go Git Service)

Gogs docker container

What is Gogs?

Gogs (Go Git Service) is a painless self-hosted Git service. The goal of this project is to make the easiest, fastest, and most painless way to set up a self-hosted Git service. With Go, this can be done via an independent binary distribution across ALL platforms that Go supports, including Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows.

How to use this image

Once it's up connect to configure Gogs.

Hosting a Gogs instance

sudo docker run -it -p 80:3000 -p 2222:2222 -d dperson/gogs

OR set local storage:

sudo docker run -it --name gogs -p 80:3000 -p 2222:2222 \
            -v /path/to/directory:/mount \
            -d dperson/gogs

Configuration

sudo docker run -it --rm dperson/gogs -h
Usage: gogs.sh [-opt] [command]
Options (fields in '[]' are optional, '<>' are required):
    -h          This help
    -t ""       Configure timezone
                possible arg: "[timezone]" - zoneinfo timezone for container

The 'command' (if provided and valid) will be run instead of gogs

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

• TZ - As above, configure the zoneinfo timezone, IE EST5EDT
• USERID - Set the UID for the app user
• GROUPID - Set the GID for the app user

Examples

Start an instance and set the timezone:

Any of the commands can be run at creation with docker run or later with docker exec -it gogs gogs.sh (as of version 1.3 of docker).

Setting the Timezone

sudo docker run -it -p 139:139 -p 445:445 -d dperson/gogs -t EST5EDT

OR using environment variables

sudo docker run -it -p 139:139 -p 445:445 -e TZ=EST5EDT -d dperson/gogs

Will get you the same settings as

sudo docker run -it --name gogs -p 139:139 -p 445:445 -d dperson/gogs
sudo docker exec -it gogs gogs.sh -t EST5EDT ls -AlF /etc/localtime
sudo docker restart gogs
