   • See README_ACTIONS.md for detailed instructions

3. Configure Forgejo Actions secrets

   • Add the required secrets to your repository's Actions secrets:
     • FORGEJO_REGISTRY
     • FORGEJO_USERNAME
     • FORGEJO_PASSWORD

4. Push to Forgejo

   • The Forgejo Actions workflows will automatically run
   • View results in the Actions tab of your repository

5. Pull and run the Docker image

   • Use the commands in README_FORGEJO.md to pull and run your Docker image

For Drone CI (Legacy)

1. Configure Drone CI secrets

     • docker_username
     • docker_password
     • webhook_url (optional)

2. Configure environment variables

   • Set up DRONE_REGISTRY in your Forgejo CI/CD settings

3. Customize for your environment

   • Copy .env.example to .env and update with your settings

Additional Information

• The Docker image is built using the existing Dockerfile, which was already well-configured
• Both CI/CD approaches (Forgejo Actions and Drone CI) include testing to ensure code quality
• The Docker Compose setup allows for both local development and production deployment
• Forgejo Actions provides a more integrated experience with Forgejo and follows a syntax similar to GitHub Actions
• The demo workflow (.forgejo/workflows/demo.yaml) provides a simple starting point for understanding Forgejo Actions
• The comprehensive build workflow (.forgejo/workflows/build.yml) demonstrates a complete CI/CD pipeline using Forgejo Actions
