# Gitea Runner
|
|
We provide runners that you can use for the CI/CD in Gitea.
|
|
|
|
## Runner Images
|
|
Our runners can run different docker images for your workflows please refer to https://docs.github.com/en/actions/writing-workflows/choosing-where-your-workflow-runs/running-jobs-in-a-container for details
|
|
|
|
If none of the default runners available suits you, you can contact [Gitea Project](mailto:gitea@psi.ch) and we can find a solution that fits you best.
|
|
|
|
## Actions
|
|
Actions can sometimes be used from GitHub, but are likely to break. There are some actions in https://gitea.psi.ch/actions that are proven working. Also you can checkout https://gitea.com/actions/ and if you find any useful to you we can mirror these. [Gitea Project](mailto:gitea@psi.ch)
|
|
|
|
## Custom Runner
|
|
|
|
If you need/want to run your own runner, you can either install the runner by RPM or run it in a docker container. A version of the runner RPM is available on repos.psi.ch. The package itself can also be found at https://gitea.psi.ch/lx_packages/act-runner.
|
|
|
|
|
|
However, we recommend to run the runner in a docker container, as it is easier to maintain and update.
|
|
|
|
Before you can register a runner (regardless whether you use the RPM or Docker method), you need to create a registration token. You can do this by following the steps below:
|
|
|
|
- On your organization or repository page, click on **Settings**
|
|
- In the left sidebar, click **Actions**
|
|
- Click **Runners**
|
|
- On the right side, click **Create new Runner**
|
|
- Copy and save the registration token (it will only be displayed once!)
|
|
- This token you will need to register your runner with your Gitea instance in the following steps.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
### RPM Runner
|
|
|
|
To setup an [RPM based runner](https://gitea.psi.ch/lx_packages/act-runner), please follow the steps below:
|
|
|
|
1. Install the runner package:
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo dnf install act-runner
|
|
```
|
|
2. Create a config.yaml file in /etc/act-runner/config.yaml and register the runner with your Gitea instance:
|
|
```bash
|
|
act_runner generate-config > /etc/act_runner/config.yaml
|
|
# adapt location of .runner file
|
|
act_runner --config /etc/act_runner/config.yaml register
|
|
# need registration token
|
|
```
|
|
3. Start the runner:
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo systemctl enable --now act_runner
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Docker Runner
|
|
|
|
A docker based runner can be deployes via the following steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Install docker on your machine
|
|
2. Create a directory with a config.yaml and docker-compose.yaml file:
|
|
|
|
config.yaml:
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration file, it's safe to copy this as the default config file without any modification.
|
|
|
|
# You don't have to copy this file to your instance,
|
|
# just run `./act_runner generate-config > config.yaml` to generate a config file.
|
|
|
|
log:
|
|
# The level of logging, can be trace, debug, info, warn, error, fatal
|
|
level: warn
|
|
|
|
runner:
|
|
# Where to store the registration result.
|
|
file: .runner
|
|
# Execute how many tasks concurrently at the same time.
|
|
capacity: 5
|
|
# Extra environment variables to run jobs.
|
|
envs:
|
|
# A_TEST_ENV_NAME_1: a_test_env_value_1
|
|
# A_TEST_ENV_NAME_2: a_test_env_value_2
|
|
# Extra environment variables to run jobs from a file.
|
|
# It will be ignored if it's empty or the file doesn't exist.
|
|
env_file: .env
|
|
# The timeout for a job to be finished.
|
|
# Please note that the Gitea instance also has a timeout (3h by default) for the job.
|
|
# So the job could be stopped by the Gitea instance if it's timeout is shorter than this.
|
|
timeout: 3h
|
|
# The timeout for the runner to wait for running jobs to finish when shutting down.
|
|
# Any running jobs that haven't finished after this timeout will be cancelled.
|
|
shutdown_timeout: 0s
|
|
# Whether skip verifying the TLS certificate of the Gitea instance.
|
|
insecure: false
|
|
# The timeout for fetching the job from the Gitea instance.
|
|
fetch_timeout: 5s
|
|
# The interval for fetching the job from the Gitea instance.
|
|
fetch_interval: 5s
|
|
# The labels of a runner are used to determine which jobs the runner can run, and how to run them.
|
|
# Like: "macos-arm64:host" or "ubuntu-latest:docker://gitea/runner-images:ubuntu-latest"
|
|
# Find more images provided by Gitea at https://gitea.com/gitea/runner-images .
|
|
# If it's empty when registering, it will ask for inputting labels.
|
|
# If it's empty when execute `daemon`, will use labels in `.runner` file.
|
|
labels:
|
|
- "your_runner_name:host"
|
|
cache:
|
|
# Enable cache server to use actions/cache.
|
|
enabled: true
|
|
# The directory to store the cache data.
|
|
# If it's empty, the cache data will be stored in $HOME/.cache/actcache.
|
|
dir: "/toolcache"
|
|
# The host of the cache server.
|
|
# It's not for the address to listen, but the address to connect from job containers.
|
|
# So 0.0.0.0 is a bad choice, leave it empty to detect automatically.
|
|
host: "runner"
|
|
# The port of the cache server.
|
|
# 0 means to use a random available port.
|
|
port: 8088
|
|
# The external cache server URL. Valid only when enable is true.
|
|
# If it's specified, act_runner will use this URL as the ACTIONS_CACHE_URL rather than start a server by itself.
|
|
# The URL should generally end with "/".
|
|
external_server: ""
|
|
|
|
container:
|
|
# Specifies the network to which the container will connect.
|
|
# Could be host, bridge or the name of a custom network.
|
|
# If it's empty, act_runner will create a network automatically.
|
|
network: "runner_net"
|
|
# Whether to use privileged mode or not when launching task containers (privileged mode is required for Docker-in-Docker).
|
|
privileged: true
|
|
# And other options to be used when the container is started (eg, --add-host=my.gitea.url:host-gateway).
|
|
options:
|
|
# The parent directory of a job's working directory.
|
|
# NOTE: There is no need to add the first '/' of the path as act_runner will add it automatically.
|
|
# If the path starts with '/', the '/' will be trimmed.
|
|
# For example, if the parent directory is /path/to/my/dir, workdir_parent should be path/to/my/dir
|
|
# If it's empty, /workspace will be used.
|
|
workdir_parent:
|
|
# Volumes (including bind mounts) can be mounted to containers. Glob syntax is supported, see https://github.com/gobwas/glob
|
|
# You can specify multiple volumes. If the sequence is empty, no volumes can be mounted.
|
|
# For example, if you only allow containers to mount the `data` volume and all the json files in `/src`, you should change the config to:
|
|
# valid_volumes:
|
|
# - data
|
|
# - /src/*.json
|
|
# If you want to allow any volume, please use the following configuration:
|
|
# valid_volumes:
|
|
# - '**'
|
|
valid_volumes:
|
|
- "**"
|
|
# overrides the docker client host with the specified one.
|
|
# If it's empty, act_runner will find an available docker host automatically.
|
|
# If it's "-", act_runner will find an available docker host automatically, but the docker host won't be mounted to the job containers and service containers.
|
|
# If it's not empty or "-", the specified docker host will be used. An error will be returned if it doesn't work.
|
|
docker_host: ""
|
|
# Pull docker image(s) even if already present
|
|
force_pull: true
|
|
# Rebuild docker image(s) even if already present
|
|
force_rebuild: false
|
|
|
|
host:
|
|
# The parent directory of a job's working directory.
|
|
# If it's empty, $HOME/.cache/act/ will be used.
|
|
workdir_parent:
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
docker-compose.yaml:
|
|
```yaml
|
|
services:
|
|
runner:
|
|
container_name: your_runner_name
|
|

GITEA_RUNNER_NAME: "your_runner_name"
|
|
volumes:
|
|
- ./config.yaml:/config.yaml
|
|
- "/etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro"
|
|
- "/etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro"
|
|
# allow the runner to switch to a different image for jobs
|
|
# - "/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock"
|
|
# allow the runner to use a toolcache for caching tools
|
|
# - "/srv/runner/data/toolcache:/toolcache"
|
|
# allow the runner to use a cache for caching actions
|
|
# - "/srv/runner/act:/var/run/act"
|
|
# if you want to allow the runner to mount a volume from the host to the job container, you can add a volume here, for example:
|
|
# - /data:/data
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Run the runner with docker-compose:
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker-compose up -d
|
|
```
