Static pages	CC-BY-SA-4.0

LXC container dedicated to hosting static HTML pages.

LXC container

See the static-pages section in the infrastructure documentation.

SSL on the LXC host

Each domain has a /etc/nginx/sites-available/f3.forgefriends.forgejo.org file similar to the following on the host where the LXC container resides.

server {
    listen 80;
    listen [::]:80;

    server_name f3.forgefriends.forgejo.org;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://10.6.83.106:80;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    }
}

Obtain the certificate:

ln -sf /etc/nginx/sites-available/f3.forgefriends.forgejo.org /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/f3.forgefriends.forgejo.org
sudo certbot -n --agree-tos --email contact@forgejo.org -d f3.forgefriends.forgejo.org --nginx

Creation in the LXC container

With the example of f3.forgefriends.forgejo.org and f3.forgefriends.org serving the same content.

lxc-helpers.sh lxc_container_run static-pages -- sudo --user $USER bash

$ cat /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/f3.forgefriends.org
server {

        listen [::]:80;

        server_name f3.forgefriends.org f3.forgefriends.forgejo.org;

        root /var/www/f3.forgefriends.org;

        location / {
                try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
        }
}

Webhook

Create a POST webhook with the URL https://f3.forgefriends.forgejo.org/.well-known/forgejo/f3.forgefriends.org on https://code.forgejo.org/f3/html-documentation. It is expected to fail with 404, the information will be extracted from the web server logs.

To verify that it works:

• journalctl -f --unit static-pages
• Test delivery at https://code.forgejo.org/f3/html-documentation/settings/hooks/4
