yunohost-ci
is a custom executor for Gitlab Runner.
It uses LXD/LXC environment to run tests on YunoHost Core. Tests must be written in file .gitlab-ci.yml
on each YunoHost Core repository to test.
First you need to install the system dependencies.
yunohost-ci
essentially requires Git and the LXD/LXC ecosystem.
For Gitlab Runner, you can find doc here. On Debian-based system, you can add GitLab’s official repository:
curl -L https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/runner/gitlab-runner/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
Then install Gitlab Runner (min version: 12.1):
sudo apt-get install gitlab-runner
Then follow this doc to install incus on your system: https://linuxcontainers.org/incus/docs/main/installing/#install-incus-from-a-package
Then you shall initialize incus which will ask you several questions. Usually answering the default (just pressing enter) to all questions is fine. (doc)
sudo incus admin init
To use this runner, you must register the Gitlab Runner that you just installed (you can register in on several projects, or on the group that contains all projects). But, you have to disable the shared runner to only use this runner and not "Official" that is using a docker executor.
You can follow this official doc to register it. The only think to change is the point number 6, where you have to choose custom
.
After that, clone this repo where you want, and be sure that scripts base.sh
cleanup.sh
prepare.sh
and run.sh
have the execution permission.
Finally, edit the file /etc/gitlab-runner/config.toml
to add builds_dir
, cache_dir
, and all the [runners.custom]
section. Your file should looks like this:
concurrent = 1
check_interval = 0
[session_server]
session_timeout = 1800
[[runners]]
name = "yunohost-ci"
url = "https://gitlab.com/" # Gitlab URL
token = "[SECRET-TOKEN]" # Very private token
executor = "custom"
builds_dir = "/builds" # Will be created if doesn't exist
cache_dir = "/cache" # Will be created if doesn't exist
[runners.custom]
prepare_exec = "/opt/yunohost-ci/prepare.sh" # Path to a bash script to create lxd container and download dependencies.
run_exec = "/opt/yunohost-ci/run.sh" # Path to a bash script to run script inside the container.
cleanup_exec = "/opt/yunohost-ci/cleanup.sh" # Path to bash script to delete container.
[runners.custom_build_dir]
enabled = true
Use the field image
to switch between before-install
or after-install
(after-install
by default) for example:
image: after-install
to use the image after the postinstall of Yunohostimage: before-install
to use the image before the installation of YunoHost
- Support more YunoHost Core projects (for now only
yunohost
is supported, notmoulinette
...) - Git pull this repo before running tests to keep these files up-to-date.
