## Authentication URL Configuration
### Multiple Access URLs
To allow access to Gitea Mirror through multiple URLs (e.g., local IP and public domain), use the `BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS` variable:
**Example Configuration:**
```bash
# Primary URL (required) - typically your public domain
BETTER_AUTH_URL=https://gitea-mirror.mydomain.tld
# Additional access URLs (optional) - local IPs, alternate domains
BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=http://10.10.20.45:4321,http://192.168.1.100:4321
```
This setup allows you to:
- Access via local network IP: `http://10.10.20.45:4321`
- Access via public domain: `https://gitea-mirror.mydomain.tld`
- Both URLs will work for authentication and session management
### Trusted Origins
The `BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS` variable serves multiple purposes:
1. **SSO/OIDC Providers**: When using external authentication providers (Google, Authentik, Okta)
2. **Reverse Proxies**: When running behind nginx, Traefik, or other proxies
3. **Cross-Origin Requests**: When the frontend and backend are on different domains
4. **Development**: When testing from different URLs
**Example Scenarios:**
```bash
# For Authentik SSO integration
BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=https://authentik.company.com,https://auth.company.com
# For reverse proxy setup
BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=https://proxy.internal,https://public.domain.com
# For development with multiple environments
BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=http://localhost:3000,http://192.168.1.100:3000
```
**Important Notes:**
- All URLs from `BETTER_AUTH_URL` are automatically trusted
- URLs must be complete with protocol (http/https)
- Multiple origins are separated by commas
- No trailing slashes needed
## Notes
1. **First Run**: Environment variables are loaded when the container starts. The configuration is applied after the first user account is created.
