Pagure is a free and open-source git web interface software that allows users to create Git repositories, manage them, and collaborate in a team environment. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Pagure on Ubuntu Server latest.
Before continuing with this tutorial, make sure you have the following:
To get started, ensure that all required dependencies are installed on your Ubuntu server. You can do this by running the following command:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y python3-pagure python3-flask python3-flask-assets python3-markupsafe python3-setuptools python3-psycopg2 python3-pygit2 pytest-benchmark python3-bcrypt python3-boto3 python3-fedmsg python3-gunicorn python3-Pygments python3-docutils python3-sphinx
Now, you can install the Pagure package using the following command:
sudo pip3 install pagure[pdf]
After installing the Pagure package, you need to create a database for it. You can do this by running the following command:
sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE USER pagure WITH PASSWORD 'password';"
sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE DATABASE pagure_db OWNER pagure;"
Once you have the dependencies and database in place, you can start configuring Pagure. The configuration file for Pagure is located at /etc/pagure/pagure.cfg. You can edit this file using a text editor of your choice:
sudo nano /etc/pagure/pagure.cfg
In this file, you can configure Pagure according to your requirements. At a minimum, you should set a secret key and database URI. To generate a secret key, run the following command:
openssl rand -hex 32
Copy the output and paste it into the SECRET_KEY field in pagure.cfg. In addition to this, you should also set the appropriate database URI in the SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI field. For example:
SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI = 'postgresql://pagure:password@localhost/pagure_db'
Once you have configured the Pagure, you can start the server using the following command:
sudo systemctl start pagure
If you want the service to start automatically on boot, you can enable it using the following command:
sudo systemctl enable pagure
In this tutorial, you learned how to install Pagure on Ubuntu Server. Now that you have Pagure installed, you can start using it to manage your Git repositories and collaborate with your team.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
