harupong/gitbucket repository overview

⁠Minimal Docker image for GitBucket

⁠Initial Setup

These steps launch containers:

• detached.
• that automatically restart unless stopped.

⁠To make GitBucket data persistent in your host $HOME directory

docker run -d --restart="unless-stopped" -v "$HOME/.gitbucket:/root/.gitbucket" --name gitbucket -p 8080:8080 harupong/gitbucket 

⁠To keep GitBucket data persistent as Docker volume

docker volume create --name gb-data
docker run -d --restart="unless-stopped" -v gb-data:/root/.gitbucket --name gitbucket -p 8080:8080 harupong/gitbucket 

⁠Start a container

⁠If you've stopped the container

docker start <ID of stopped container> to restart it.

⁠If your container is deleted

Execute the docker run command described above that fits your use case.

⁠Backup

If you are keeping your data in your $HOME directory, then just make a copy of .gitbucket directory as backup.

If you've created a docker volume for your data, then read the official document⁠ to properly backup the volume.
