Whenever I brought up -this project during the creation of it, most people would react with -"have you tried...", followed by some git web software, such as -gitlab, gittea, and many many more. But there is a reason why I stuck -with octopus and the design ideas I had for it. - -Fundamentally it's about decentralisation. The internet is a pretty -big place (allegedly), but a lot of the services that people use are -very centralised by a single company or even server. If this company -or server goes away, so does valuable knowledge. There are many ways -to create more decentralised systems, and one aspect of this for me, -is code repos. - -Git is by it's nature decentralised, meaning that it doesn't require -an "upstream" or canonical server to function. Theoretically you -could use git to exchange code patches with people without the -internet. Yet, a lot of people's perception of git is one that is -dictated by the workflows on github and gitlab: centralised into a -single service. Many git web frontends mirror this workflow, because -after all, it is what people want and love. - -However, it has some flaws (which would take too long to elaborate -here), and for octopus I had something else in mind. Instead of -replicating the same mistakes, I took much more inspiration from cgit, -which is used and loved by many today. - -Octopus is a re-imagining of cgit, trying to improve the UX and -maintainability where possible, adding new features, but mostly -staying true to it's core: a simple git web service, that doesn't lock -you into a vendor, or server. - -Configuration -------------- - -octopus is easy to configure and run, even on systems that don't give -you priviledged system access. The main server binary is configured -primarily with a few environment variables, and an app config. - -+ OCTOPUS_CONFIG should contain the path of the main configuration - -+ OCTOPUS_SSL_KEY can optionally be set to the path of a certificate key - -+ OCTOPUS_SSL_CERT can optionally be set to the path of a certificate - - -The main configuration file is written in yaml, and outlines things -like the application domain, repo paths, and added modules. Because -octopus is vory modular, you can only depend on certain features. - - ---- -app_path: git.octopus.example -port: 8080 -handle_ssl: false -cache_path: /var/cache/octopus -repo_path: /var/lib/octopus/repos -repo_discovery: false # Disables automatic config loading from repo_path - # and instead let's you set a static set of repos - # in the section below -repos: - - octopus: - description: "🐙 It's a water animal" - category: "/" - - libkookie: - description: "My personal nix expressions" - category: "/nix" - - - </pre> - </div> - </body> -</html> |
