Gitea & Automating docker pushes

[ekevu123]

I am using gitea on Cloudron and I am trying to set up a runner that automates the workflow of building a docker image for an app I am building. I wanted to solve this using actions.

However, the runner seems to need a separate image installed to build the docker image there. Now, I could probably install this as a custom app on Cloudron, but firstly I wanted to understand if there's an easier way of accomplishing this?

Otherwise, another option would be to use Github Actions.

EDIT: The gitea runner can't be installed on Cloudron, because it needs to be able to spawn containers.

Runners are best run outside of Cloudron. Just get a separate VPS and run it there. This is the correct approach for security and performance . For example, git.cloudron.io is on a Cloudron. There is a gitlab runner for all the package building and running tests. It is on a separate hetzner dedi.

Our runner is the docker runner. Cannot imagine giving the runner access to docker which is having other production apps.

Thank you! I went with Github Actions for now because I don't really need to isolate it, it would be just nice-to-have.
