Forgejo conf

Configuration for my instance of Forgejo using podman and podman-compose.

Prerequisite

• podman & podman-compose installed

• The domain/subdomain for the forge, here git.marcha.me

• Open ports 22, 80, 443, 2222

Deployment

Clone the repository in a dedicated folder. cd in the folder then run podman-compose up -d

Stop with podman-compose down

SSH configuration

To use git with SSH, you'll need an SSH key

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -a 100

Copy/Paste the public key in Forgejo. Then on your device, update your ssh config:

nano ~/.ssh/config

Add the following

Host forge        
 User git
 IdentityFile ~/.ssh/git
 Hostname git.marcha.me
 Port 2222

SSH for the forge is now working in using git@forge. Ex: git clone git@forge:Matt/ecofse.git ecofse

SSL

SSL is setup on a very basic conf with let's encrypt. Auto-renewal seems to need a pod restart

podman-compose restart
