# LXC Container Deployment Guide
|
||
|
||
## Overview
|
||
Run **Gitea Mirror** in an isolated LXC container, either:
|
||
|
||
1. **Online, on a Proxmox VE host** – script pulls everything from GitHub
|
||
2. **Offline / LAN-only, on a developer laptop** – script pushes your local checkout + Bun ZIP
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 1. Proxmox VE (online, recommended for prod)
|
||
|
||
### Prerequisites
|
||
* Proxmox VE node with the default `vmbr0` bridge
|
||
* Root shell on the node
|
||
* Ubuntu 22.04 LXC template present (`pveam update && pveam download ...`)
|
||
|
||
### One-command install
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Community-maintained script for Proxmox VE by Tobias ([CrazyWolf13](https://github.com/CrazyWolf13))
|
||
# at [community-scripts/ProxmoxVED](https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVED)
|
||
sudo bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVED/main/install/gitea-mirror-install.sh)"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
What it does:
|
||
|
||
* Uses the community-maintained script from ProxmoxVED
|
||
* Installs dependencies and Bun runtime
|
||
* Clones & builds `arunavo4/gitea-mirror`
|
||
* Creates a systemd service and starts it
|
||
* Sets up a random `JWT_SECRET` for security
|
||
|
||
Browse to:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
http://<container-ip>:4321
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 2. Local testing (LXD on a workstation, works offline)
|
||
|
||
### Prerequisites
|
||
|
||
* `lxd` installed (`sudo apt install lxd`; `lxd init --auto`)
|
||
* Your repo cloned locally – e.g. `~/Development/gitea-mirror`
|
||
* Bun ZIP downloaded once:
|
||
`https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/releases/latest/download/bun-linux-x64.zip`
|
||
|
||
### Offline installer script
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git clone https://github.com/arunavo4/gitea-mirror.git # if not already
|
||
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arunavo4/gitea-mirror/main/scripts/gitea-mirror-lxc-local.sh -o gitea-mirror-lxc-local.sh
|
||
chmod +x gitea-mirror-lxc-local.sh
|
||
|
||
sudo LOCAL_REPO_DIR=~/Development/gitea-mirror \
|
||
./gitea-mirror-lxc-local.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
What it does:
|
||
|
||
* Launches privileged LXC `gitea-test` (`lxc launch ubuntu:22.04 ...`)
|
||
* Pushes **Bun ZIP** + tarred **local repo** into `/opt`
|
||
* Unpacks, builds, initializes DB
|
||
* Symlinks both `bun` and `bunx` → `/usr/local/bin`
|
||
* Creates a root systemd unit and starts it
|
||
|
||
Access from host:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
http://$(lxc exec gitea-test -- hostname -I | awk '{print $1}'):4321
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
(Optional) forward to host localhost:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo lxc config device add gitea-test mirror proxy \
|
||
listen=tcp:0.0.0.0:4321 connect=tcp:127.0.0.1:4321
|
||
```
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Health-check endpoint
|
||
|
||
Gitea Mirror includes a built-in health check endpoint at `/api/health` that provides:
|
||
|
||
- System status and uptime
|
||
- Database connectivity check
|
||
- Memory usage statistics
|
||
- Environment information
|
||
|
||
You can use this endpoint for monitoring your deployment:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Basic check (returns 200 OK if healthy)
|
||
curl -I http://<container-ip>:4321/api/health
|
||
|
||
# Detailed health information (JSON)
|
||
curl http://<container-ip>:4321/api/health
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Troubleshooting
|
||
|
||
| Check | Command |
|
||
| -------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
|
||
| Service status | `systemctl status gitea-mirror` |
|
||
| Live logs | `journalctl -u gitea-mirror -f` |
|
||
| Verify Bun | `bun --version && bunx --version` |
|
||
| DB perms | `chown -R root:root /opt/gitea-mirror/data` (Proxmox) |
|
||

||
## Connecting LXC and Docker Containers
|
||
|
||
If you need your LXC container to communicate with Docker containers:
|
||
|
||
1. On your host machine, create a bridge network:
|
||
```bash
|
||
docker network create gitea-network
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
2. Find the bridge interface created by Docker:
|
||
```bash
|
||
ip a | grep docker
|
||
# Look for something like docker0 or br-xxxxxxxx
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
3. In Proxmox, edit the LXC container's network configuration to use this bridge.
