I think having runners separate is fine
Separate does not have to mean off Cloudron however. One of the systems I am running my Drone runners is also the Cloudron system where I am running the app/dashboard. Simply not started as a Cloudron app, but through docker-compose (I have scripting for that in my Drone app). The Runner only cleans up containers it has created itself, so its safe to use in my opinion.

@girish Oh could you give me access to make repos on there again? Username is atridad. I made a new account.
-
@girish Thanks! Its here: https://git.cloudron.io/atridad/cloudron-drone-ci
-
@atridad I got it going here - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/drone-app/ . It seems the .env file is missing in the git repo, you should have permissions to add it.
-
@girish I work with macOS and because I cant import into your gitlab I copied and pasted the files into a new repo I made. Unfortunately the .env file is considered a hidden file and didn't show up in finder...
Good catch. Its in there now.
-
@atridad That's a preference you can set in finder to show all hidden files or use the CLI.
-
@robi ahhh I'll check that out. I was being lazy tbh and didn't just use the command-line.

the next time you could also add an additional remote to your local repo and then push to this new remote. This has also the upside of preserving history.
-
@atridad thanks!
Trying to understand how this app works. If I configure this for gitea, then it will use the gitea provider to sign in - https://docs.drone.io/server/provider/gitea/ ?
If that's the case, what is https://docs.drone.io/server/user/registration/ ? Or is the OAuth stuff separate from the users?
-
@atridad I had to add
RUN chmod +x /app/code/start.shto your Dockerfile in order to install it properly, it was throwing a 400 error.Is there any chance to add the runners/agents as cloudron apps as well? I was just playing around with the exec runner and couldn't get it to work, but I would think it could be the same as the cloudron-build-service, no?
-
@msbt you don't really need an app for that, you can just run the docker runner on your cloudron host. I am using https://github.com/fbartels/cloudron-drone-app/blob/master/runner/docker-compose.yml along with a
.envfile with my server specific values. -
@fbartels I'm trying to have a complete deployment solution for static pages, like Directus + Gitea + Drone (with Agents) + Surfer on one server which can be given/rented to the customer when the site is finished, so they can have everything in one place and can build/update the website(s) themselves. Would be nice to have it in the GUI (and there's a dashboard on :3000 if you set credentials, right?) and have the possibility to restart if need arises without sshing onto the box. But if it's too tricky or crazy effort, your suggestion will probably be the way to go
-
@msbt the webinterface on the runners is only for debugging as far as I know. So they do not really need to be reachable from the public internet. The only important thing is that the runners can reach the "dashboard" to get job information.
I have runners deployed on a few machines, even had it running on my laptop.
And one of the Drone jobs indeed builds a hugo blog and then deploys it via surfer.
