gitlab-ee 企业版自签许可证license

本篇文章主要是研究gitlab-ee的licence签发方式,仅供大家学习参考使用。请尊重软件开发者成果,支持正版。

背景

最近帮一个朋友推动开发测试一体化从DevOps转向GitOps。对于什么是GitOps,有时间搞个专题博客来讲讲这个概念以及最佳实践。总之在推进GitOps的时候需要,需要一些gitlab-ee 的高级特性。

1. 安装ruby环境以及gem包管理工具

  • 由于我的电脑是mbp,所以自带ruby开发环境,无需安装。

  • 安装相关ruby包依赖gitlabgitlab-licenseopenssl

1
2
3
sudo gem install gitlab
sudo gem install gitlab-license
sudo gem install openssl

2. 编写创建license的ruby脚本,并生成license文件

  • 创建脚本文件
1
vim createlicense.rb
  • 文件内容如下

Imported license:
#<Gitlab::License:0x00007fd086926f40>
This instance of GitLab Enterprise Edition is licensed to:
Name: test
Company: Google Inc
Email: test@163.com
The license will expire on 2026-04-23

ls . # 查看当前目录下文件
GitLabBV.gitlab-license createlicense.rb license_key license_key.pub

3. 替换公钥以及激活license

  • 将createlicense.rb脚本文件生成的license_key.pub公钥内容替换到gitlab的/opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-rails/.license_encryption_key.pub中。然后重启gitlab,gitlab-ctl restart.

  • 重启完毕后,将脚本生成的GitLabBV.gitlab-license文件,导入gitlab激活页面即可激活了。

4. 修改gitlab-ee的等级为ULTIMATE_PLAN

  • 修改gitlab的文件

vim /opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-rails/ee/app/models/license.rb

1
2
3
def plan
restricted_attr(:plan).presence || STARTER_PLAN ## 将STARTER_PLAN 修改为 ULTIMATE_PLAN
end

小问题

  • 就是生成的license虽然可以激活,但是license页面老是报500错误。这个得看下后台日志排查下即可。
