Removed the rootless dockerfile as upon further investigation into how a `rootless` container works, the entrypoint that has been written fully accomodates that to reflect this the compose file has had the rootless config removed from it as it is no longer needed to test a seperate container image, added a debug echo function `decho` to the entrypoint, when `DEBUG=true` it will print "[entrypoint] message content" added a 10 second wait to the entrypoint to allow other services such as docker-in-docker and forgejo to finish launching before the runner is launched, this is bypassable by `SKIP_WAIT=true` applied several modifications requested by viceice, |

Forgejo Runner
WARNING: this is alpha release quality code and should not be considered secure enough to deploy in production.
A daemon that connects to a Forgejo instance and runs jobs for continous integration. The installation and usage instructions are part of the Forgejo documentation.
Reporting bugs
When filing a bug in the issue tracker, it is very helpful to propose a pull request in the end-to-end tests repository that adds a reproducer. It will fail the CI and unambiguously demonstrate that the problem exists. In most cases it is enough to add a workflow (see the echo example). For more complicated cases it is also possible to add a runner config file as well as shell scripts to setup and teardown the test case (see the service example).
Hacking
The Forgejo runner depends on a fork of ACT and is a dependency of the setup-forgejo action. See the full dependency graph for a global view.
Local debug
The repositories are checked out in the same directory:
- runner: Forgejo runner
- act: ACT
- setup-forgejo: setup-forgejo
Install dependencies
The dependencies are installed manually or with:
setup-forgejo/forgejo-dependencies.sh
Build the Forgejo runner with the local ACT
The Forgejo runner is rebuilt with the ACT directory by changing the runner/go.mod
file to:
replace github.com/nektos/act => ../act
Running:
cd runner ; go mod tidy
Building:
cd runner ; rm -f forgejo-runner ; make forgejo-runner
Launch Forgejo and the runner
A Forgejo instance is launched with:
cd setup-forgejo
./forgejo.sh setup
firefox $(cat forgejo-url)
The user is root
with password admin1234
. The runner is registered with:
cd setup-forgejo
docker exec --user 1000 forgejo forgejo actions generate-runner-token > forgejo-runner-token
../runner/forgejo-runner register --no-interactive --instance "$(cat forgejo-url)" --name runner --token $(cat forgejo-runner-token) --labels docker:docker://node:20-bullseye,self-hosted:host://-self-hosted,lxc:lxc://debian:bullseye
And launched with:
cd setup-forgejo ; ../runner/forgejo-runner --config runner-config.yml daemon
Note that the runner-config.yml
is required in that particular case
to configure the network in bridge
mode, otherwise the runner will
create a network that cannot reach the forgejo instance.
Try a sample workflow
From the Forgejo web interface, create a repository and add the
following to .forgejo/workflows/try.yaml
. It will launch the job and
the result can be observed from the actions
tab.
