Request to update documentation on how to use the plugin and to switch the plugin to deliver its plugins.jenkins.io documentation from GitHub rather than from the wiki. See JENKINS-59467 for a template that describes how to make that transition. That will allow editing the documentation in the README file with automatic publishing to plugins.jenkins.io.
Basic usage steps of plugin required.
There is a global section available for adding Gitea servers, but completely unclear on how to use it and where to use it.
The Gitea plugin provides an organization folder implementation that should be included in the "Branches and Pull Requests" section of the jenkins.io documentation. A tutorial could be provided with a docker-compose configuration that would allow the reader to complete something like the End-to-End Multibranch Pipeline Project Creation without requiring an account on GitHub.
Gitea is used as the git server in several courses that CloudBees offers as self-paced courses at no charge, including:
- duplicates
-
-
- Closed

delany refer to the several videos on Jenkins multibranch pipeline. I really like the video from darinpope at https://youtu.be/B_2FXWI6CWg . Likewise the concepts presented for GitHub in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbXKUKQ24T8 apply also to Gitea.

added a comment - markewaite where I always get stuck is setting up the credentials.
I did your "initial setup" where I created the credential "gitea-token"
But when I want to use that in a "new item" the Credentials drop-down doesn't have any, and I have to add a new with with the Add button
If I add another credential with the Jenkins option, it gets added to the <jenkinsserver>/credentials/ page, but it doesn't appear in the "new item"s drop-down.
If I add another credential with the commissioner option (the name of my item), it neither appears in the credentials page nor in this drop-down.

added a comment - delany That looks like an implementation bug or incompatible API change to me. It would be best to report that as a separate issue, as this issue is for documentation. I don't see references to com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.MismatchedInputException in other gitea-plugin issues, so the error doesn't seem to have been reported before. Please include the versions of the Gitea server, Jenkins, and Jenkins plugins in your report.

Are you referring to freestyle jobs when saying that the credentials cannot be configured properly?

added a comment - justusbunsi all my builds are pipeline projects. I dont remember if I tried this with a multibranch pipeline project.

Closing issue as resolved by the earlier steps that deliver the Gitea plugin documentation. The request to provide additional tutorials or other tutorial configurations is much broader than the "Document the Gitea plugin" request.
The plugins site includes documentation for:
That provides the basic usage steps of the plugin. The documentation is delivered from plugins.jenkins.io . That covers the first three paragraphs of this request.
The "Branches and Pull Requests" page includes links to the Gitea plugin in the same sections that include links to the GitHub branch source plugin, the Bitbucket branch source plugin, and the GitLab branch source plugin. That covers much of the fourth paragraph of this request.
The proposal for an end to end tutorial using Docker compose would be the first tutorial on jenkins.io that uses Docker compose. Significant work would be required to create and maintain that type of tutorial with multiple components running together. The CloudBees courses mentioned in the issue report are using a Docker compose configuration to deliver Jenkins and Gitea in single course.
