GitLab is a Git repository management system. A wiki, a web interface, and a bug tracking system are all included in the package. Consider installing GitLab on Ubuntu 18.04.
We switch to superuser mode for convenience:
[code]
sudo su
[/code]
We start by updating the data about the packages in the repository and the system components:
[code]
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[/code]
Installing the essential packages:
[code]
apt-get install ca-certificates curl openssh-server
[/code]
The system will ignore any components that are already installed.
Let’s get to the installation.
Go to the /tmp directory.
[code]
cd /tmp
[/code]
Download the Debian/Ubuntu installation script:
[code]
curl -LO https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab-ce/script.deb.sh
[/code]
Script execution:
[code]
bash /tmp/script.deb.sh
[/code]
The application will install any missing packages, import gpg keys, and set up the server to accept GitLab repositories.
Install the most recent GitLab version:
[code]
apt-get install gitlab-ce
[/code]
Approximately 81 MB of packages will be downloaded during installation.
Final result:
Let us begin with the basics:
[code]
gitlab-ctl reconfigure
[/code]
This procedure is completely automated. The console should appear something like this at the end of the process.
Set up a firewall.
You must configure a firewall in order to connect to GitLab from the outside. To accomplish this, add the following allow rule to the web port:
[code]
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
[/code]
Important! If port 80 does not work for you for some reason, such as because a web service already exists on this server, you can change it. To do so, open the file and make the following changes:
[code]
nano /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
[/code]
Change the external_url parameter. After the specified domain name, through a colon (“:”), specify the port number, for example 8080. As an example, it was:
external_url ‘http://gitlab.example.com’
It became:
[code]
external_url ‘http://gitlab.example.com:8080’
[/code]
The web interface will prompt you to set a password for the administrator account when you first visit to the server address.
You will be routed to the permission page after entering and confirming your password.
Enter the root username and password from the previous paragraph.
Create registration rules.
Let us proceed to the Admin Area.
Then, from the side menu, select Settings (Settings). Additional General. Click the Expand button next to the Sign-up restrictions item. Examine the Sign-up enabled checkbox.
This option allows you to register.
Important!
You must configure an email transfer agent for users to get emails when they register on the server.
