# Gitea Mobile
A mobile-first Progressive Web App (PWA) for managing Gitea issues and pull requests across multiple repositories and organizations from an iPhone. Built with Go, HTMX, and hand-rolled CSS -- no JavaScript frameworks, no build step, no node_modules.
## Tech Stack
| Layer | Choice |
|-------|--------|
| Backend | Go + Gitea SDK (`code.gitea.io/sdk/gitea`) |
| Frontend | HTMX + Go `html/template` + hand-rolled CSS |
| Container | Multi-stage Dockerfile -> distroless (~15MB) |
| Deployment | Kustomize manifests + FluxCD GitOps |

## Local Development
### Prerequisites
- [Nix](https://nixos.org/download/) with flakes enabled, **or** Go 1.22+
- A Gitea instance with an API token
### Quick Start
```bash
# Enter the Nix dev shell (provides Go, gopls, air)
nix develop
# Set required environment variables
export GITEA_URL=https://gitea.leeworks.dev
export SESSION_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32)
# Optional: set a default API token
export GITEA_TOKEN=your-gitea-api-token
# Start the server with live reload
air
```
If you are not using Nix, install Go 1.22+ and [air](https://github.com/air-verse/air) manually, then run the same commands above starting from the export lines.
### Environment Variables
| Variable | Required | Default | Description |
|----------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `GITEA_URL` | Yes | -- | Base URL of the Gitea instance |
| `SESSION_SECRET` | Yes | -- | HMAC key for signing session cookies (min 32 chars) |
| `GITEA_TOKEN` | No | -- | Default API token (users can set their own via the settings page) |
| `LISTEN_ADDR` | No | `:8080` | Server listen address |
### Live Reload with Air
The dev shell includes [air](https://github.com/air-verse/air) for automatic recompilation on file changes. Configuration is in `.air.toml`. Air watches `.go` and `.html` files under `cmd/`, `internal/`, and `static/` and rebuilds/restarts the server automatically.
## Running Tests
```bash
# Run all tests
go test ./...
# Run tests with race detection
go test -race ./...
```
## Building the Container
```bash
# Build the Docker image
docker build -t gitea-mobile .
# Run locally
docker run -p 8080:8080 \
-e GITEA_URL=https://gitea.leeworks.dev \
-e SESSION_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32) \
gitea-mobile
```
The Dockerfile uses a multi-stage build: Go binary compiled in an Alpine builder stage, then copied into a distroless image (~15MB final size).
## Deployment
Kubernetes manifests for this app live in the Talos cluster repo under `testing1/first-cluster/apps/gitea-mobile/`. FluxCD syncs from that repo and handles automated image updates via `ImagePolicy` annotations.
Key deployment resources:
- `deployment.yaml` -- Pod spec with health checks
- `service.yaml` -- ClusterIP service on port 8080
- `ingressroute.yaml` -- Traefik IngressRoute for `gitea-mobile.testing.leeworks.dev`
- `kustomization.yaml` -- Kustomize overlay
## Contributing
1. Fork the repository
2. Create a feature branch: `git checkout -b feature/your-feature`
3. Make your changes and add tests
4. Run `go test -race ./...` to verify
5. Commit with a clear message referencing the issue number
6. Push to your fork and open a pull request
All PRs target the fork (`leeworks-agents/gitea-mobile`), not the upstream repo.
