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
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
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!
|
|
|
|
```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
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On my raspberry pi,
|
|
I used the tags `aarch64,big-builder,go,python3,hugo`.
|
|
|
|
More documentation is at
|
|
[gitea act runner](https://docs.gitea.com/usage/actions/act-runner).

|
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,
|
|
like POST BIOS patiently waiting for someone to press F1.
|
|
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.
|
|

Note To Self
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
~/runner/run.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
I think I did it this way to isolate it from the rest of the homelab swarm?
|
|
But then why not just make a new swarm?
