A ready to use docker image with preinstalled nginx and gitlist.

You can use it to quickly expose a web interface of the git repositories in a directory of your host machine.

The dockerfile uses the lastest gitlist-master.tar.gz distribution available.

This image is based off the linuxservers.io ubuntu base image.

• Updated to V1.0.2
• Fix permission problems.

A host user can be mapped to the container's www server process via environment variables so no need to elevate file permission on the git repository. Useful if you need to run gitolite on a NAS which doesn't yet directly support dockers '--user' option.

You can build the image like this

git clone https://github.com/aklambeth/gitlist-docker.git
cd gitlist-docker
docker build --rm=true -t gitlist .

And run it like this

docker run --rm=true -p 8888:80 -v /path/repo:/repos gitlist -e PUID=<user id> -e PGID=<group id>

The web interface will be available on host machine at port 8888 and will show repositories inside /path/repo

Or, if you use docker-compose

version: "3"
services:
    gitlist:
    image: gitlist
    container_name: gitlist
    environment:
        - PUID=<user id>
        - PGID=<group id>
    volumes:git
        - /path/repo:/repos
    ports:
        - 8888:80

To get the PUID and PGID of a user run 'id <username>' eg -

$ id git
uid=1000(git) gid=1000(git) groups=1000(git) ...
