+excerpt: "Getting the project deployed via Gitea actions"
+---
+
+So that I can do the whole build-in-public thing properly, I always want my code to automatically deploy. I've got [Gitea Actions](https://docs.gitea.com/usage/actions/overview) on my Gitea server, so I can use those to build, deploy, and start a Go binary.
+
+## Building and copying a binary
+
+This is the simplest part. I had a decent template from my Eleventy action that I was able to take and turn into the following workflow:
+
+```yaml
+name: Build and copy to prod
+on:
+  push:
+jobs:
+  build-and-copy:
+    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+    steps:
+      - name: Checkout
+        uses: actions/checkout@v4
+      - name: Setup Go
+        uses: actions/setup-go@v5
+        with:
+          go-version: 1.22
+      - name: Build binary
+        run: go build -o dist/oopsie
+      - name: Install SSH Key
+        uses: shimataro/ssh-key-action@v2
+        with:
+          key: ${{ secrets.SSH_KEY }}
+          known_hosts: ${{ secrets.SSH_KNOWN_HOSTS }}
+      - name: Copy to prod
+        run: scp -rp dist/* ${{ secrets.SSH_USER }}@${{ secrets.SSH_HOST }}:oopsie/
+```
+
+This installs Go on the action runner, builds the binary, and then uses SCP to copy the compiled binary onto my server. To facilitate this, I created a user on my VPS, created a new SSH key, and added the public key to the `.ssh/authorized_keys` file. Then I added the private key to the Gitea action secrets, along with the `known_hosts` entry for my git server, the name of the user I created, and the hostname for my VPS.
+
+## Running the software
+
+So now I need to run my compiled software. I can create a systemd service to do this, and then run it as the user I've created. First of all I create a new file, `/etc/systemd/user/oopsie.service`:
+
+```systemd
+[Unit]
+Description=Daemon for the Oopsie service
+
+[Service]
+Type=simple
+#User=
+#Group=
+ExecStart=/home/<user>/oopsie/oopsie
+Restart=on-failure
+StandardOutput=file:%h/log_file
+
+[Install]
+WantedBy=default.target
+```
+
+Then, as the user I've created I run:
+
+```bash
+systemctl --user daemon-reload
+systemctl --user start oopsie.service
+```
+
+And can confirm my service is running locally:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8000
+> This was a POST request!
+```
+
+## Nginx proxy
+
+Next up I need to use Nginx's `proxy_pass` directive to direct any requests to https://oopsie.lewisdale.dev to my running service. Again, this was mostly lifted from an existing template I already had:
+
+```nginx
+server {
+	listen 80;
+	listen [::]:80;
+	server_name oopsie.lewisdale.dev;
+	rewrite ^ https://$server_name$request_uri? permanent;
+}
+
+server {
+	# SSL configuration
+	#
+	listen 443 ssl;
+	listen [::]:443 ssl;
+	server_name oopsie.lewisdale.dev;
+
+    # Include certificate params
+    include snippets/certs/lewisdale.dev;
+	ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/lewisdale.dev/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
+    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/lewisdale.dev/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
+
+	include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf;
+
+	location / {
+        proxy_pass http://localhost:8000;
+        proxy_set_header Host $host;
+        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
+        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
+        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Woo, now I can actually access my service over the internet!
+
+![Screenshot from Mozilla Firefox, showing oopsie.lewisdale.dev responding with "This was a GET request!"](./src/images/oopsie-working.png)
+
+## Restarting the service
+
+Finally, I can use the `-o` argument with the `RemoteCommand` [SSH config option](https://linux.die.net/man/5/ssh_config) to execute a command. I can use that to run `systemctl restart`:
+
+```yaml
+- name: Restart the service
+  run: ssh ${{ secrets.SSH_USER }}@${{ secrets.SSH_HOST }} -o RemoteCommand="systemctl --user restart oopsie.service"
+```
+
+## Nope
+
+Ah, that's not quite correct. My first build failed:
+
+```bash
+scp: oopsie//oopsie: Text file busy
+```
+
+I can't overwrite a file while it's in use. Instead, I have to stop the service, copy the file, and then start the service again:
+
+```yaml
+- name: Stop the service
+  run: ssh ${{ secrets.SSH_USER }}@${{ secrets.SSH_HOST }} -o RemoteCommand="systemctl --user stop oopsie.service"
+- name: Copy to prod
+  run: scp -rp dist/* ${{ secrets.SSH_USER }}@${{ secrets.SSH_HOST }}:oopsie/
+- name: Restart the service
+  run: ssh ${{ secrets.SSH_USER }}@${{ secrets.SSH_HOST }} -o RemoteCommand="systemctl --user start oopsie.service"
+```
+
+And that works! It deploys successfully. Ironically, there's a minor bit of downtime while it does, but for now that's really not an issue. You can see the project in progress on [its deployed home](https://oopsie.lewisdale.dev) or [on the Git repo](https://git.lewisdale.dev/lewis/oopsie).
