Overview

Operator to manage gitea Act runner on Kubernetes

How it works?

1. It installs a set of CRDs: kind: RunnerGroup in Kubernetes

apiVersion: gitea.bpg.pw/v1alpha1
kind: RunnerGroup
metadata:
  name: my-repo-runner-1
  namespace: gitea-runner-system
spec:
  scope: repo # valid options: global, org or user, repo
  org: myorg # optional; ommited if scope == global; mutually exclusive with user
  user: myusername # optional; ommited if scope == global; mutually exclusive with org
  repo: myreponame # optional; ommited if scope == org || scope == global
  gitea:
    url: https://gitea.bpg.pw
  labels:
    - default
    - app:infra
  maxActiveRunners: 5 #
  registrationToken: # registration token for runner
    secretRef:
      name: gitea-runner-secret-0
      key: registrationToken
  authToken: # token to get list of job status
    secretRef:
      name: gitea-runner-secret-0
      key: authToken

2. The RunnerGroup controller will continuously watch for queued jobs based on its scope: global, org, or repo. If a new workflow run is detected with status: queued, based on the RunnerGroup's labels, the controller will spawn a new ephemeral runner as a Job.

apiVersion: batch/v1
kind: Job
metadata:
  name: my-repo-runner-1-275f1b8f
  labels:
    app: my-repo-runner-1
    # tags to determine that this resource is managed by the Operator
spec:
  # Optional: Automatically clean up the job after it finishes (e.g., 100 seconds)
  ttlSecondsAfterFinished: 600
