Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place. Come be part of shaping the direction of Supermarket by opening issues and pull requests or by joining us on the Chef Mailing List.

Github Self-Hosted Runners

Fully functioning cookbook to install github self-hosted runners for Organization-level

This cookbook install, manage, and manipulate github hosted runners. Provide authtoken to generate registration-token for github runner

About self-hosted runners

Self-hosted runners offer more control of hardware, operating system, and software tools than GitHub-hosted runners provide. With self-hosted runners, you can choose to create a custom hardware configuration with more processing power or memory to run larger jobs, install software available on your local network, and choose an operating system not offered by GitHub-hosted runners. Self-hosted runners can be physical, virtual, in a container, on-premises, or in a cloud.

You can add self-hosted runners at various levels in the management hierarchy:

  • Repository-level runners are dedicated to a single repository.
  • Organization-level runners can process jobs for multiple repositories in an organization.
  • Enterprise-level runners can be assigned to multiple organizations in an enterprise account

Requirements for self-hosted runner machines

  • You can use any machine as a self-hosted runner as long at it meets these requirements:

  • You can install and run the self-hosted runner application on the machine. For more information, see "Supported operating systems for self-hosted runners."

  • The machine can communicate with GitHub Actions. For more information, see "Communication between self-hosted runners and GitHub."

  • The machine has enough hardware resources for the type of workflows you plan to run. The self-hosted runner application itself only requires minimal resources.
    If you want to run workflows that use Docker container actions or service containers, you must use a Linux machine and Docker must be installed.

Usage limits

There are some limits on GitHub Actions usage when using self-hosted runners. These limits are subject to change.

  • Workflow run time - Each workflow run is limited to 72 hours. If a workflow run reaches this limit, the workflow run is cancelled.
  • Job queue time - Each job for self-hosted runners can be queued for a maximum of 24 hours. If a self-hosted runner does not start executing the job within this ∂limit, the job is terminated and fails to complete.
  • API requests - You can execute up to 1000 API requests in an hour across all actions within a repository. If exceeded, additional API calls will fail, which might cause jobs to fail.
  • Job matrix - A job matrix can generate a maximum of 256 jobs per workflow run. This limit also applies to self-hosted runners.

  • Linux

    • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, 8

Usage

### Create Runner

  • LINUX
  ghe_linux_acrn 'Install GitHub Runner' do
    github_org (node['github']['org']).to_s
    auth_token (node['github']['auth_token']).to_s
    github_package (node['git_action_runner_linux']['download_url']).to_s
    builder_name "#{node['github-runner_linux']['name']}-#{node['hostname']}"
    service_user (node['github']['user']).to_s
    service_group (node['github']['user']).to_s
    action :create
  end
  • WINDOWS
  ghe_windows_acrn 'Install GitHub Runner for Windows' do
    github_org (node['github']['org']).to_s
    auth_token (node['github']['auth_token']).to_s
    github_package (node['git_action_runner_windows']['download_url']).to_s
    builder_name "#{node['github-runner_windows']['name']}-#{node['hostname']}"
    action :create
  end

### Delete Runner

  • LINUX
  ghe_linux_acrn 'Install GitHub Remove Runner' do
    github_org (node['github']['org']).to_s
    auth_token (node['github']['auth_token']).to_s
    service_user (node['github']['user']).to_s
    service_group (node['github']['user']).to_s
    action :delete
  end
  • WINDOWS
  ghe_windows_acrn 'Install GitHub Runner for Windows' do
    github_org (node['github']['org']).to_s
    auth_token (node['github']['auth_token']).to_s
