Big Builder
|
||
|
|
===========
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I personally don't want to be running CI/CD automation
|
||
|
|
with full access to my Docker socket.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I made this image to hold all my typical build toolset,
|
||
|
|
and also the gitea runner,
|
||
|
|
so now I can just say `runs-on: big-builder`,
|
||
|
|
and stuff works without docker.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This does mean I can't use github actions.
|
||
|
|
That's okay with me:
|
||
|
|
I don't want to be running node on my Raspberry Pi, either.
|
||
|
|
I know how to use the Bourne shell,
|
||
|
|
so I'm able to do everything I want that way.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||

|
How To Set This Up
|
||
|
|
------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This wants its files to live in `/app`.
|
||
|
|
After you do the registration step,
|
||
|
|
that can be mounted read-only.
|
||
|
|
But it will want to write its token in the registration step.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You should provide custom tags:
|
||
|
|
that's how you keep it from trying to use docker.
|
||
|
|
On my raspberry pi,
|
||
|
|
I used `["big-builder", "aarch64", "go", "python3", "hugo"]`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Otherwise, just set this up the same way you would set up the
|
||
|
|
[gitea act runner](https://docs.gitea.com/usage/actions/act-runner).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To run in daemon mode,
|
||
|
|
you have to give it `daemon` on the commandline:
|
||
|
|
I didn't make a fancypants script to guess the command.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Adding Other Packages
|
||
|
|
---------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Make your own image. Like so:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```Dockerfile
|
||
|
|
FROM big-builder
|
||
|
|
RUN apk --no-cache add nethack
|
||
|
|
``
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Even better, steal this one's Dockerfile and add stuff to it.
|
||
|
|
You shouldn't trust my image to be malware-free.

Caveats
|
||
|
|
-------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Right now (October 2023),
|
||
|
|
if anything tries to read from the tty,
|
||
|
|
the runner just sits there forever.
|
||
|
|
This is a problem with the runner that they might fix one day.
|
||
|
|
Just something to bear in mind:
|
||
|
|
I spent a bit of time chasing this one down.
