How to quickly deploy Gitlab using Docker

1. Download the gitlab image

docker pull gitlab/gitlab-ce

2. Run the gitlab instance

GITLAB_HOME=`pwd`/data/gitlab
docker run -d \
  --hostname gitlab \
  --publish 8443:443 --publish 80:80 --publish 2222:22 \
  --name gitlab \
  --restart always \
  --volume $GITLAB_HOME/config:/etc/gitlab \
  --volume $GITLAB_HOME/logs:/var/log/gitlab \
  --volume $GITLAB_HOME/data:/var/opt/gitlab \
  gitlab/gitlab-ce

3. Configure the gitlab instance

3.1 Configure Email:

docker exec -t -i gitlab vim /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb

The following configuration of the mailbox takes NetEase 163 mailbox as an example:

gitlab_rails['smtp_enable'] = true
gitlab_rails['smtp_address'] = "smtp.163.com"
gitlab_rails['smtp_port'] = 25
gitlab_rails['smtp_user_name'] = "[email protected]"
gitlab_rails['smtp_password'] = "xxxxpassword"
gitlab_rails['smtp_domain'] = "163.com"
gitlab_rails['smtp_authentication'] = "login"
gitlab_rails['smtp_enable_starttls_auto'] = false
gitlab_rails['smtp_openssl_verify_mode'] = "peer"

gitlab_rails['gitlab_email_from'] = "[email protected]"
user["git_user_email"] = "[email protected]"

Please note that the [email protected] above represents the user name, that is, the email address, and xxxxpassword is not the login password of the email address but the client authorization password of NetEase email. You can check it in Settings - POP3/SMTP/IMAP - Client Authorization Password on the NetEase email web page.

3.2 Configuring external access URL

This must be configured, otherwise the default URL is the container's host name. At the beginning, because the port mapping 80->8080 was done, it was set to

external_url http://10.103.240.36:8080

Later I found that external_url can only be configured with IP or domain name, not port, otherwise it cannot be started.

So we can only set the port to 80->80, and then set external_url to:

external_url http://10.103.240.36

4. Restart gitlab

docker restart gitlab
