# act runner

Act runner is a runner for Gitea based on [Gitea fork](https://gitea.com/gitea/act) of [act](https://github.com/nektos/act).

## Installation

### Prerequisites

Docker Engine Community version is required for docker mode. To install Docker CE, follow the official [install instructions](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/).

### Download pre-built binary

Visit https://dl.gitea.com/act_runner/ and download the right version for your platform.

### Build from source

```bash
make build
```

### Build a docker image

```bash
make docker
```

## Quickstart

### Register

```bash
./act_runner register
```

And you will be asked to input:

1. Gitea instance URL, like `http://192.168.8.8:3000/`. You should use your gitea instance ROOT_URL as the instance argument
 and you should not use `localhost` or `127.0.0.1` as instance IP;
2. Runner token, you can get it from `http://192.168.8.8:3000/admin/runners`;
3. Runner name, you can just leave it blank;
4. Runner labels, you can just leave it blank.

The process looks like:

```text
INFO Registering runner, arch=amd64, os=darwin, version=0.1.5.
WARN Runner in user-mode.
INFO Enter the Gitea instance URL (for example, https://gitea.com/):
http://192.168.8.8:3000/
INFO Enter the runner token:
fe884e8027dc292970d4e0303fe82b14xxxxxxxx
INFO Enter the runner name (if set empty, use hostname: Test.local):

INFO Enter the runner labels, leave blank to use the default labels (comma-separated, for example, ubuntu-20.04:docker://node:16-bullseye,ubuntu-18.04:docker://node:16-buster,linux_arm:host):

INFO Registering runner, name=Test.local, instance=http://192.168.8.8:3000/, labels=[ubuntu-latest:docker://node:16-bullseye ubuntu-22.04:docker://node:16-bullseye ubuntu-20.04:docker://node:16-bullseye ubuntu-18.04:docker://node:16-buster].
DEBU Successfully pinged the Gitea instance server
INFO Runner registered successfully.
```

You can also register with command line arguments.

```bash
./act_runner register --instance http://192.168.8.8:3000 --token <my_runner_token> --no-interactive
```

If the registry succeed, it will run immediately. Next time, you could run the runner directly.

### Run

```bash
./act_runner daemon
```

### Configuration

You can also configure the runner with a configuration file.
The configuration file is a YAML file, you can generate a sample configuration file with `./act_runner generate-config`.

```bash
./act_runner generate-config > config.yaml
```

You can specify the configuration file path with `-c`/`--config` argument.

```bash
./act_runner -c config.yaml register # register with config file
./act_runner -c config.yaml deamon # run with config file
```

### Run a docker container

```sh
docker run -e GITEA_INSTANCE_URL=http://192.168.8.18:3000 -e GITEA_RUNNER_REGISTRATION_TOKEN=<runner_token> -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock --name my_runner gitea/act_runner:nightly
```
