Runner Images

docker pulls docker stars

Official docker images used by act_runner to run workflows.

You can find the images on gitea/runner-images.

Currently, we have not chosen to build the image ourselves, as catthehacker/docker_images has done an excellent job of this. We don't need to reinvent the wheel.

Images are built from catthehacker/ubuntu:* or node:*. Additional packages will be installed if they are needed by act_runner.

Images

Here are three types of images: "default", "slim", and "full".

Default images

Default images are based on catthehacker/ubuntu:act-*, and are used by default in act_runner. They contain most of the tools needed to run workflows and are always recommended if your runner is not disk-space constrained.

Tag Base Size Version
ubuntu-latest catthehacker/ubuntu:act-latest size version
ubuntu-22.04 catthehacker/ubuntu:act-22.04 size version
ubuntu-20.04 catthehacker/ubuntu:act-20.04 size version

Slim images

Slim images are based on node:20-*-slim. They contain Node.js to run basic workflows and set up more development tools if needed. Their size is much smaller, which is friendly to disk-space constrained runners.

Tag Base Size Version
ubuntu-latest-slim node:20-bookworm-slim size version
ubuntu-22.04-slim node:20-bookworm-slim size version
ubuntu-20.04-slim node:20-bullseye-slim size version

Full images

Full images are based on catthehacker/ubuntu:full-*, which contains all tools provided by GitHub Actions runners. They have huge sizes, but are useful if you need to run workflows in a GitHub Actions compatible environment. Please note that full images support amd64 architecture only.

Tag Base Size Version
ubuntu-latest-full catthehacker/ubuntu:full-latest size version
ubuntu-22.04-full catthehacker/ubuntu:full-22.04 size version
ubuntu-20.04-full catthehacker/ubuntu:full-20.04 size version

Migration

If you have already installed a runner which uses node:16-* or node:20-* as default images, you can migrate to the new images by following the steps:

  1. Ensure your Gitea's version is v1.21.0 or later.
  2. Ensure your act_runner's version is v0.2.9 or later.
  3. Update your runner's configuration file like config.yaml:
    # ...
    
    runner:
      # ...
      labels:
        - "ubuntu-latest:docker://gitea/runner-images:ubuntu-latest"
        - "ubuntu-22.04:docker://gitea/runner-images:ubuntu-22.04"
        - "ubuntu-20.04:docker://gitea/runner-images:ubuntu-20.04"
    
    container:
      # ...
      force_pull: true
    
    # ...
    
  4. Restart your runner.
