Docker Automated build Docker Pulls Docker Stars

Alpine Version Gitlab Runner Version

This Container image (yobasystems/gitlab-runner) is based on the minimal Alpine Linux with Gitlab Runner pre-installed.

Alpine Version 3.20.2 (Released 2024-07-22)

Gitlab Runner Version 17.3.0
Docker Machine Version 0.16.2-gitlab.28

πŸ”οΈ What is Alpine Linux?

Alpine Linux is a Linux distribution built around musl libc and BusyBox. The image is only 5 MB in size and has access to a package repository that is much more complete than other BusyBox based images. This makes Alpine Linux a great image base for utilities and even production applications. Read more about Alpine Linux here and you can see how their mantra fits in right at home with Container images.

πŸš€ How to use this image

amd64/armhf/aarch64 (Alpine)

docker pull yobasystems/gitlab-runner

sudo docker run -d --name=gitlab-runner --restart=always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v /data/gitlab-runner/config:/etc/gitlab-runner yobasystems/gitlab-runner

Register runner with gitlab server

These can be passed at runtime as environment variables or by running the following command:

docker exec -it gitlab-runner /bin/sh

gitlab-runner register -n --url https://gitlab.url.domain.co.uk/ci --registration-token eRp938AHcv8JiHi4hUip --executor docker --docker-image "yobasystems/gitlab-runner-docker" --docker-privileged

Config file

Sometimes it is needed to add the following "/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock", in the example below you will see the placement.

concurrent = 1
check_interval = 0
[[runners]]
  name = "gitlab-runner001"
  url = "https://gitlab.url.domain.co.uk/ci"
  token = "eRp938AHcv8JiHi4hUip"
  executor = "docker"
  [runners.docker]
    tls_verify = false
    image = "yobasystems/gitlab-runner-docker:dind"
    privileged = true
    disable_cache = true
    volumes = ["/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock", "/cache"]
    shm_size = 0
  [runners.cache]

Usage

Use like you would any other base image:

version: '2'
services:
  gitlab-runner:
    privileged: true
    image: yobasystems/gitlab-runner
    stdin_open: true
    volumes:
    - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
    - /data/gitlab-runner/config:/etc/gitlab-runner
    tty: true
