# forgejo Self-hosted Forgejo git server for archiving GitHub repos and mirroring active ones. Runs on a single EC2 instance within the Sea Haven VPC, fronted by the `seahaven-com` ALB for HTTPS. ## Architecture - **EC2**: t4g.small (arm64), Amazon Linux 2023, 50GB gp3 EBS — instance `i-0d3005fb3c36124cd` - **Network**: Private subnet (us-east-1a), behind `seahaven-com` ALB for SSL termination - **DNS**: `forgejo.seahaven.com` — Route53 alias record pointing to the `seahaven-com` ALB (not a direct A record) - **TLS**: Wildcard cert on ALB, HTTP internally on port 3000 - **Backup**: Nightly `forgejo dump` to S3 + EBS snapshots via DLM (see [S3 Backups](#s3-backups)) - **Admin access**: SSM Session Manager (no SSH port exposed) - **CI/CD**: GitHub Actions with OIDC role `githubdeploy-forgejo` ### Ports | Port | Protocol | Source | Purpose | |------|----------|--------|---------| | 443 | HTTPS | ALB (public) | Web UI + HTTP git clone | | 3000 | HTTP | ALB → instance | Internal traffic from ALB | | 2222 | SSH | VPC + VPN | Git SSH operations | ## S3 Backups A nightly `forgejo dump` runs at 5:00 UTC and uploads the archive to `s3://forgejo-backups-328440206208`. **S3 lifecycle policy:** | Phase | Duration | |-------|----------| | Standard | First 30 days | | Glacier | Days 31–365 | | Expired | After 365 days | EBS snapshots are managed separately by DLM and run nightly at 6:00 UTC with a 7-day retention window. To test the backup manually: ```bash sudo /usr/local/bin/forgejo-backup.sh ``` ## Autodiscovery An hourly cron job checks the `Sea-Haven-Industries` GitHub org for new repositories and mirrors them into Forgejo automatically. - **Active repos** are created as mirrors (ongoing sync). - **Archived repos** are created as static one-time imports. - **Script**: `/usr/local/bin/forgejo-autodiscover.sh` - **Log**: `/var/log/forgejo-autodiscover.log` ## Token Refresh A daily cron at 4:30 UTC reads the GitHub PAT from Secrets Manager (`forgejo/github-pat`) and updates the git remote URL on every mirror repository so credentials stay current. - **Script**: `/usr/local/bin/forgejo-refresh-tokens.sh` ## PAT Rotation The GitHub personal access token used for mirroring is a fine-grained PAT scoped to `Sea-Haven-Industries` with **Contents: Read-only** permissions and a 1-year expiration. It is stored in Secrets Manager at `forgejo/github-pat`. To rotate: 1. Create a new fine-grained PAT on GitHub with the same scope. 2. Update the secret value in Secrets Manager (`forgejo/github-pat`). 3. The daily token-refresh cron will pick it up automatically. To force immediate propagation: ```bash sudo /usr/local/bin/forgejo-refresh-tokens.sh ``` ## Secrets Manager | Secret | Purpose | |--------|---------| | `forgejo/admin-password` | Forgejo admin user password | | `forgejo/api-token` | Forgejo API token (used by autodiscovery and token refresh scripts) | | `forgejo/github-pat` | GitHub fine-grained PAT for mirroring | ## First-time setup After the stack deploys, connect via SSM and create the admin user: ```bash aws ssm start-session --target i-0d3005fb3c36124cd sudo -u forgejo /usr/local/bin/forgejo admin user create \ --admin \ --username adam \ --password '' \ --email adam@seahavenind.com \ --config /etc/forgejo/app.ini ``` Admin password is stored in Secrets Manager at `forgejo/admin-password`. Access the web UI at `https://forgejo.seahaven.com`. ## Migrating repos from GitHub ### Archived repos (one-time import) In the Forgejo web UI: **New Migration → GitHub** → paste the GitHub repo URL. Use a GitHub personal access token for private repos. These are full imports (code, issues, PRs, releases). ### Active repos (mirror sync) Same migration flow, but check **This Repository Will Be A Mirror**. Forgejo polls GitHub hourly (`DEFAULT_INTERVAL = 1h` in app.ini) and keeps the mirror in sync. ## Deployment ```bash npm install npx cdk deploy ``` CI/CD is handled by GitHub Actions — PRs run CI, merges to `main` deploy via the reusable CDK workflow. ## Updating Forgejo Update the `FORGEJO_VERSION` constant in `lib/forgejo-stack.ts` and deploy. This replaces the instance, so ensure the latest EBS snapshot is available for data recovery if needed. Alternatively, update in-place via SSM: ```bash aws ssm start-session --target i-0d3005fb3c36124cd sudo systemctl stop forgejo sudo curl -Lo /usr/local/bin/forgejo "https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/releases/download/v/forgejo--linux-arm64" sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/forgejo sudo systemctl start forgejo ```
