Is there a way to connect a GHE instance?

[grinlemon]

Hello everyone,

We recently purchased GitHub Enterprise Cloud (GHE) for our company. We initially tested Dokploy as part of a proof of concept and found it very useful.

However, we are currently facing an issue: we cannot find a way to connect repositories from our GitHub Enterprise instance to a Dokploy project.

Has anyone managed to do this successfully?

Thank you very much for your help!

Hi @grinlemon! I'm Dosu and I’m helping the dokploy team.

Dokploy does not currently support connecting to GitHub Enterprise instances. The GitHub provider is hardcoded to use github.com — the clone URLs [1], API calls via Octokit [2], and the GitHub App creation flow [3] all point to public GitHub with no configurable URL field.

This is unlike GitLab and Gitea providers, which both have custom URL fields (gitlabUrl, giteaUrl) allowing self-hosted instances [4] [5].

Workaround: You can use the generic "Git" provider type to deploy from your GHE repositories. This means you'd provide the repository URL directly and configure webhooks manually in your GitHub Enterprise instance pointing to your Dokploy server. The downside is you lose GitHub-specific features like automatic webhook creation, preview deployments, and GitHub App integration.

The architectural pattern for adding GHE support already exists in the codebase (it was done for GitLab in PR #3631 [6] and Gitea in PR #3914 [7]), so it would be a reasonable feature request if you'd like to open one.

To reply, just mention @dosu.
