# What is Gitea Runner
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Act runner is a runner for Gitea based on [Gitea fork](https://gitea.com/gitea/act) of [act](https://github.com/nektos/act). This documentation is a copy of https://gitea.com/gitea/act_runner/src/branch/main/README.md . And it should be updated once that README changed.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## 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 [here](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
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### 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/actions/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-latest:docker://gitea/runner-images:ubuntu-latest):
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
INFO Registering runner, name=Test.local, instance=http://192.168.8.8:3000/, labels=[ubuntu-latest:docker://gitea/runner-images:ubuntu-latest ubuntu-22.04:docker://gitea/runner-images:ubuntu-22.04 ubuntu-20.04:docker://gitea/runner-images:ubuntu-20.04].
 | 
						|
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
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Run with docker
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```bash
 | 
						|
docker run -e GITEA_INSTANCE_URL=https://your_gitea.com -e GITEA_RUNNER_REGISTRATION_TOKEN=<your_token> -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock --name my_runner gitea/act_runner:nightly
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### 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 daemon # run with config file
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You can read the latest version of the configuration file online at [config.example.yaml](internal/pkg/config/config.example.yaml).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
