How to Install OneDev on Alpine Linux Latest

OneDev is an open-source Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) platform that enables developers to collaborate efficiently in building, testing, and deploying their software projects. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing OneDev on Alpine Linux latest.

Prerequisites

Before we proceed with the OneDev installation, here are the prerequisites that you need to fulfill:

Step 1: Update your system

Before installing any package on your system, it's always a good idea to update your system to ensure that all the packages are up-to-date. Use the following command to update your system:

sudo apk update && sudo apk upgrade

Step 2: Install Java Development Kit

OneDev requires that you have the Java Development Kit (JDK) version 8 or later installed on your system. You can install it using the following command:

sudo apk add openjdk8

Step 3: Install Git

OneDev uses Git to manage source code. We install Git using the following command:

sudo apk add git

Step 4: Download OneDev

We will download OneDev's binary file and extract it in the appropriate directory. We will download version 4.3.3 (the latest at the time of writing):

wget https://github.com/theonedev/onedev/releases/download/v4.3.3/onedev-server-4.3.3.tar.gz -O onedev.tar.gz
sudo mkdir -p /opt/onedev
sudo tar -xzvf onedev.tar.gz -C /opt/onedev

Step 5: Configure OneDev

Before starting the OneDev service, we need to configure it. We will navigate to the OneDev installation directory and run the configuration script. The script will prompt you to enter some information, such as the default admin account and the SMTP configuration.

cd /opt/onedev/bin
sudo ./server.sh configure

Step 6: Starting OneDev

You can start OneDev by running the following command:

sudo ./server.sh start

OneDev will start running on port 6610. You can access the OneDev web application by navigating to your browser and entering your server's IP address or domain name, followed by ":6610". This will take you to the OneDev login page, where you can log in with the admin account you created during the configuration process.
