## Introduction

git.adyxax.org is a [gitea](https://gitea.io/) instance. For about 10 years I used a gitolite installation but I finally went for a gui instead in order to host repositories for non tech people.

## Preparing the postgresql database

I am currently hosting this instance on an OpenBSD server. Obviously postgresql is packaged on this system so the installation is as simple as :
{{< highlight sh >}}
pkg_add postgresql-server
su - _postgresql
mkdir /var/postgresql/data
initdb -D /var/postgresql/data -U postgres -A scram-sha-256 -E UTF8 -W
{{< /highlight >}}

At this point you have to specify the postgres user password. Once done, exit the _postgresql users' shell and run as root :

{{< highlight sh >}}
rcctl enable postgresql
rcctl start postgresql
su - _postgresql
psql -U postgres
CREATE ROLE gitea WITH LOGIN PASSWORD 'XXXXX';
CREATE DATABASE gitea WITH OWNER gitea TEMPLATE template0 ENCODING UTF8 LC_COLLATE 'en_US.UTF-8' LC_CTYPE 'en_US.UTF-8';
{{< /highlight >}}

Since it is OpenBSD the defaults are secure for a local usage, therefore no other configuration is necessary.

## Installing gitea

Gitea is packaged on OpenBSD so the installation is as simple as :
{{< highlight sh >}}
pkg_add gitea
nvim /etc/gitea/app.ini
rcctl enable gitea
rcctl start gitea
{{< /highlight >}}
