This role installs and manages a gitea server - Source code & screenshots.

Gitea is a Golang Git repository webapp, having the same look and feel as GitHub.

Sample example of use in a playbook

The following code has been tested with Debian 8, it should work on Ubuntu as well.

Contributing

Don't hesitate to create a pull request, and when in doubt you can reach me on Twitter @thomas_maurice.

I'm happy to fix any issue that's been opened, or even better, review your pull requests :)

Testing

Testing uses molecule. To start the tests, install the dependencies first. I would recommend you use a virtual env for that but who am I to tell you what to do.

pip install pew # install pew to manage the venvs
pew new ansible # create the venv
pip install -r requirements-travis.txt # install the requirements
molecule test # Run the actual tests

Note: you need Docker installed

Known testing limitations

Currently it's mainly validating that the playbook runs, the lint is ok, and that kind of things. Since it runs in Docker, we currently have no way to check if the service is actually launched by systemd and so on. This has to be worked on.
