While trying to run a drone.io locally without yet installing a gitea instance. I’m trying to login using DRONE_USER_CREATE variable. The problem is that in https://docs.drone.io/reference/server/drone-user-create/ there is no description on what “token” is. My questions are:
Can I login in any way (unix account or non-unix account) using this variable?
If yes, how can i setup the password?
What is token? A hash of a string for passwords? The actual string in plain text?
you do not set a password. You provide your Gigea username. Then you login to Drone using your Gitea password. For more details about this setting, see https://docs.drone.io/server/user/
So it is not possible if I don’t have gitea user yet? It only works if we have a user in github/gitlab/gitea etc…?
Edit:
I now have a gitea server running but still no luck. Drone still asking me to login and doing that with gitea user with or without password is failing. So:
Still don’t know what token is. This is not very helpful.
In terminal we can see how I start drone inside docker. Note: Both gitea and drone served via apache with proxy settings locally in a VM for testing.
Documentation seams to be absent for gitea, token. Drone for gitea has only ??2 options?? and I think that _GITEA_URL has changes to _GITEA_SERVER for v1.0. gitea is bound on localhost:3000 and served via apache in gitea.localhost:80. This DRONE_GITEA_SERVER=http://gitea.localhost is enough? How can we inform drone inside the docker for the “outside” localhost? With --add-host=gitea.localhost:127.0.0.1 option to docker, drone gives me “Login Failed. Not Found”
A lot of howtos use github OAuth. Do we have to:
Configure drone for github
create a OAuth from github
login once in drone with github OAuth and create user/admin??
change the configuration of the drone to use gitea
somehow restart drone inside docker to use gitea from now on?
Some feedback in any direction will be appreciated.
