Prerequisites

Installation

Quick Start

Using docker-compose.

Start GitLab using:

docker-compose up -d

Configuration

Maintenance

Creating backups

docker-compose run --rm gitlab app:rake gitlab:backup:create

Restoring Backups

Before performing a restore make sure the container is stopped and removed to avoid container name conflicts.

docker stop gitlab && docker rm gitlab

If this is a fresh database that you're doing the restore on, first you need to prepare the database:

docker run --name gitlab -it --rm [OPTIONS] \
    gitlab app:rake db:setup

Execute the rake task to restore a backup. Make sure you run the container in interactive mode -it.

docker run --name gitlab -it --rm [OPTIONS] \
    gitlab:10.8.3-1 app:rake gitlab:backup:restore

Import Repositories

Copy all the bare git repositories to the repositories/ directory of the data store and execute the gitlab:import:repos rake task like so:

docker run --name gitlab -it --rm [OPTIONS] \
    gitlab app:rake gitlab:import:repos

Shell Access

docker exec -it gitlab bash
