Container images built by the runner are tagged with a unique name:
- based on the specified `uses` URL for remote actions.
- random for local actions.
In the case of local actions, this will create new tags for each run
but the images (and their layers) will be shared and not be
duplicated. The least recently used tags can be garbage collected by
tools such as https://github.com/stepchowfun/docuum.
Using a different method for creating the tag name for the remote
actions is to help with maintenance by establishing a direct relation
with the `uses` field. It was instead relying on a name transformed
multiple times which makes it more difficult to verify name collision
are not accidentally made possible by one of those transformations.
Without this fix, when a workflow ran a local [docker action](https://forgejo.org/docs/next/user/actions/actions/#docker-actions)

Forgejo Runner
A daemon that connects to a Forgejo instance and runs jobs for continuous integration. The installation and usage instructions are part of the Forgejo documentation.
Reporting security-related issues
Sensitive security-related issues should be reported to security@forgejo.org using encryption.
License
The Forgejo runner source code is distributed under the terms of the following licenses:
- MIT for the most part.
- Apache 2 for parts found in the act/container directory.
Architectures & OS
The Forgejo runner is supported and tested on amd64 and arm64 (binaries and containers) on Operating Systems based on the Linux kernel.
Work may be in progress for other architectures and you can browse the corresponding issues to figure out how they make progress. If you are interested in helping them move forward, open an issue. The most challenging part is to setup and maintain a native runner long term. Once it is supported by Forgejo, the runner is expected to be available 24/7 which can be challenging. Otherwise debugging any architecture specific problem won't be possible.
Hacking
The Forgejo runner is a dependency of the setup-forgejo action. See the full dependency graph for a global view.
Building
- Install Go and
make(1) make build
Linting
make lint-checkmake lint# will fix some lint errors
Testing
The workflow that runs in the CI uses similar commands.
Without a Forgejo instance
- Install Docker
make test integration-test
The TestRunner_RunEvent test suite contains most integration tests
with real-world workflows and is time-consuming to run. During
development, it is helpful to run a specific test through a targeted
command such as this:
go test -count=1 -run='TestRunner_RunEvent$/local-action-dockerfile$' ./act/runner
With a Forgejo instance
- Run a Forgejo instance locally (for instance at http://0.0.0.0:8080) and create as shared secret
export FORGEJO_RUNNER_SECRET='AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA'
export FORGEJO_URL=http://0.0.0.0:8080
forgejo forgejo-cli actions register --labels docker --name therunner --secret $FORGEJO_RUNNER_SECRET
make test integration-test# which will run addional tests because FORGEJO_URL is set
end-to-end
- Follow the instructions from the end-to-end tests to run actions tests locally.
