How To Set This Up
------------------
1. Go get a runner registration token from your forgejo/gitea instance.
2. Decide in advance what tags you want to use.
Don't use the default tags, or it will think you want docker.
`big-builder,go,python3,hugo` isn't an awful choice.
3. Run the code block below.
4. Email me to let me know if these instructions worked for you!
1. Generate an example configuration, and edit it.
Be sure to set tags here:
I use something like `big-builder,go,python3,hugo`,
and then I can say things like `requires: hugo` in my jobs.
2. Go get a runner registration token from your forgejo/gitea instance.
3. Run the interactive registation step.
4. Run the daemon.
5. Email me to let me know if these instructions worked for you!
```sh
mkdir /srv/big-builder
docker run --rm -it -u 0:0 -v /srv/big-builder:/app big-builder # This will ask you 3 questions
docker run -d --restart=always -v /srv/big-builder:/app:ro big-builder daemon
podman run --rm big-builder generate-config > /srv/big-builder/config.yaml # This generates a sample config
vim /srv/big-builder/config.yaml # Edit the config to your liking
podman run --rm -it -u 0:0 -v /srv/big-builder:/app big-builder register # Tags here are overridden by config.yaml
podman run -d --restart=always -v /srv/big-builder:/app:ro big-builder daemon
```
On my raspberry pi,
I used the tags `aarch64,big-builder,go,python3,hugo`.
Docker can be used instead of podman, with the same arguments.

Even better, steal this one's Dockerfile and add stuff to it.
You shouldn't trust my image to be malware-free.

Just something to bear in mind:
I spent a bit of time chasing this one down.
