Log mode changed to console after installation

[alex-ibb]

Description

Docker image: gitea/gitea:1.19.3
Platform: x64
OS: Ubuntu 22.04.3 Server (Minimized)

Problem: the value of log__MODE changed to console after the initialization step.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install the OS, docker and docker-compose
2. Draft an docker-compose.yml file with the following log related section:

      # [log]
      - GITEA__log__MODE=file
      - GITEA__log__LEVEL=Info
      - GITEA__log__ROUTER=file
      - GITEA__log__ROOT_PATH=/data/gitea/log/
      - GITEA__log__ENABLE_XORM_LOG=true #
      - GITEA__log__MAX_SIZE_SHIFT=28    # 单个日志文件最大大小，当为28时：2^28/1024^2=> 258(MB)
      - GITEA__log__FILE_NAME=gitea.log  # 即日志的路径为`/data/gitea/log/gitea.log`
      - GITEA__log__XORM=file

      # [log.file]
      - GITEA__log.file__MAX_DAYS=180 # 多少天后删除日志文件
      - GITEA__log.file__COMPRESSION_LEVEL=1 # 日志文件的压缩等级

      # [log.file.router]
      - GITEA__log.file.router__FILE_NAME=router.log

      # [log.file.xorm]
      - GITEA__log.file.xorm__FILE_NAME=xorm.log

3. type docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d to start the container and open its site for initialization.
4. after filling the Administrator Account Settings section, using cat <container_root>/data/gitea/conf/app.ini to check log related settings, it reads:

[log]
MODE            = file
LEVEL           = Info
ROUTER          = file
ROOT_PATH       = /data/gitea/log/
ENABLE_XORM_LOG = true
MAX_SIZE_SHIFT  = 28
FILE_NAME       = gitea.log
XORM            = file

5. hit the Install Gitea button, the site would redirect to a user page, then re-check the content, it reads:

[log]
MODE            = console
LEVEL           = info
ROUTER          = console
ROOT_PATH       = /data/gitea/log/
ENABLE_XORM_LOG = true
MAX_SIZE_SHIFT  = 28
FILE_NAME       = gitea.log
XORM            = file

The value of MODE changed to console incorrectly.
To a personal unstandering, given in the docker-compose.yml it's file and all required values related have given, it should remind to be file after the initialization.

It is changed in:

gitea/routers/install/install.go

Line 462 in 5c0745c

cfg.Section("log").Key("MODE").SetValue("console")

Thank you, @CypherpunkSamurai .

It seems it will be changed to 'console' after the initilization, regardless the value in the docker-compose file.
To change it, one need to edit the app.ini after the initilization.

Wondering the considerations to force the values of MODE and ROUTER to console in the install.go.
Seems confusing.

The change comes from d65cd56, before that commit, it's file.

[alex-ibb]

Copy, thank you @lunny

Hi~
For the commit, to change the default values of MODE and ROUTER, what are the considerations to hard-code them to "console"?

[wxiaoguang]

No particular reason.
