keys

Provides an SSHD AuthorizedKeysCommand. Needs to be configured in the sshd config file:

# username running gitea
AuthorizedKeysCommandUser git
AuthorizedKeysCommand /path/to/gitea keys -e git -u %u -t %t -k %k

The command will return the appropriate authorized_keys line for the provided key. You should also set the value SSH_CREATE_AUTHORIZED_KEYS_FILE=false in the [server] section of app.ini.

NB: opensshd requires the gitea program to be owned by root and not writable by group or others. The program must be specified by an absolute path. NB: Gitea must be running for this command to succeed.

Migrates the database. This command can be used to run other commands before starting the server for the first time.
This command is idempotent.

convert

Converts an existing MySQL database from utf8 to utf8mb4.

doctor

Diagnose the problems of current gitea instance according the given configuration. Currently there are a check list below:

  • Check if OpenSSH authorized_keys file id correct When your gitea instance support OpenSSH, your gitea instance binary path will be written to authorized_keys when there is any public key added or changed on your gitea instance. Sometimes if you moved or renamed your gitea binary when upgrade and you haven't run Update the '.ssh/authorized_keys' file with Gitea SSH keys. (Not needed for the built-in SSH server.) on your Admin Panel. Then all pull/push via SSH will not be work. This check will help you to check if it works well.

For contributors, if you want to add more checks, you can wrie ad new function like func(ctx *cli.Context) ([]string, error) and append it to doctor.go.

var checklist = []check{
	{
		title: "Check if OpenSSH authorized_keys file id correct",
		f:     runDoctorLocationMoved,
    },
    // more checks please append here
}

This function will receive a command line context and return a list of details about the problems or error.
