staticman VS woodpecker

Staticman - Staticman is a Node.js application that receives user-generated content and uploads it as data files to a GitHub and/or GitLab repository, using Pull Requests.

Staticman

Another possible solution to add dynamic content to a GitHub website is to use staticman. On the opposite of the previous solutions using external databases, staticman creates files in your repository, updating your website statically. It is free and open-source but not as straightforward to implement as disqus. The nice thing is that it will store all your comments in your git repository, so there is no risk of losing them.

This article is part of a series showing you how to quickly and freely build and host your own Jekyll blog on GitHub Pages. This series will also cover more advanced topics like adding a comment system directly in our code using Staticman and adding privacy-friendly but still free analytics using Umami.

I'm late to the game, but I'm surprised that no one has mentioned StaticMan yet:

Just uses Git(Hub) to triage and approve comments for your static sites, like Jekyll.

Is anyone using woodpecker? It's a self-hosted CI/CD server forked from Drone. Really good, and actively developed.

Run your own container registry, build and host everything yourself, dont rely on others. Docker for example has a option for that but imo its very basic and limited. Harbor is more advanced but still not overly complicated. You could add build workers to that and automate your entire pipeline, but maybe for a single image thats overkill. But good to have those options in the future. Things to look at for example: Gitea (lighter) / Gitlab (more heavy), Drone.io, Woodpecker

> I wish it had some sort of CI like github actions or bitbucket pipeline

I use Gitea with Drone CI and it works pretty well: https://www.drone.io/

Some might also prefer the Woodpecker CI fork due to the license: https://woodpecker-ci.org/

I setup Drone as a part of my migration away from GitLab Omnibus and have no complaints so far: https://blog.kronis.dev/articles/goodbye-gitlab-hello-gitea-...

I’m trying to migrate of my personal repos from GitHub to Codeberg. The biggest problem is to find a replacement for GitHub Actions (the free offering is so generous), and my current solution for that is to self-host an instance of Woodpecker CI [1].

I’d like to see even more diversity in Git hosting beyond “let’s all migrate from X to Y”, and for that to happen, Forgejo (a soft fork of Gitea) has already began implementing federation [2].
