Gitea is a very nice lightweight git server and ideal for selfhosting repos i.e. for single developers without vendor lock. It can be installed standalone or as Docker / Kubernetes instance.

confdroid_gitea automates the installation and configuration of gitea as standalone instance. It uses the provided downloadable binaries and sets up a full server instance based on that.

WARNING

---Attention: Never use this puppet module on systems which have been previously configured manually. It is impossible to predict how and what would have been configured, hence previous configurations outside the scope of this module may be overwritten! Automated configurations require a test environment to verify that the module suits the purpose intended by the user, as well as tune the parameters, before deploying into live production---

You must set ga_host_fqdn and specify the correct hostname, else nothing will be configured to avoid having accidently multiple hosts configured as gitea server.

Disclaimer

ConfDroid as entity is entirely independent from Puppet. We provide custom configuration modules, written for specific purposes and specific environments. The modules are tested and supported only as documented, and require testing in designated environments (i.e. lab or development environments) for parameter tuning etc. before deploying into production environments.
