## Testing the Setup

### Installing Docker on the Runner (Optional)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Once everything is configured:
|
If you want to build Docker images as part of your releases, install Docker on the runner:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. **Push a test tag**:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
```bash
|
||||||
git tag -a v0.0.1-test -m "Test release"
|
# Install Docker
|
||||||
git push origin v0.0.1-test
|
curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh
|
||||||
|
sudo sh get-docker.sh
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Add permissions for the runner user to use Docker
|
||||||
|
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Verify Docker is working
|
||||||
|
docker --version
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Note: You may need to logout and login for group permissions to take effect
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. **Monitor the build**:
|
**Without Docker**: The binary builds will still work. Only Docker image generation will be skipped (the workflow will show a warning but still succeed).
|
||||||
- Go to Actions tab
|
|
||||||
- You should see the workflow running
|
|
||||||
- Check logs for any errors
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. **Verify the release**:
|
|
||||||
- Go to Releases tab
|
|
||||||
- You should see a new release with binaries and checksums
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Troubleshooting
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### "Action not found" error
|
|
||||||
- Make sure Gitea Actions is enabled
|
|
||||||
- Restart Gitea if you just enabled it: `sudo systemctl restart gitea`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### No runners available
|
|
||||||
- Runner must be registered: Administration → Actions → Runners
|
|
||||||
- Runner machine must have Docker and Go installed
|
|
||||||
- Check if runner is online in the UI
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### "GITEA_TOKEN" not found
|
|
||||||
- Make sure the secret is named exactly `GITEA_TOKEN` (case-sensitive)
|
|
||||||
- Go to Settings → Secrets and verify it's there
|
|
||||||
- If it's there, try re-running the workflow
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Build fails with permission denied
|
|
||||||
- Make sure the runner has permission to run Docker commands
|
|
||||||
- On the runner machine: `sudo usermod -aG docker $USER`
|
|
||||||
- Logout and log back in for the group change to take effect

## Troubleshooting
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### "docker: command not found" in workflow
|
||||||
|
- Docker is not installed on your runner
|

|
- This is **optional** - binaries will still build
|
||||||
|
- If you want Docker images, install Docker on the runner (see above)
|
||||||
|
- The workflow will gracefully skip Docker builds and show a warning
|

### "Action not found" error
|
||||||
|
- Make sure Gitea Actions is enabled
|
||||||
|
- Restart Gitea if you just enabled it: `sudo systemctl restart gitea`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### No runners available
|
||||||
|
- Runner must be registered: Administration → Actions → Runners
|
||||||
|
- Runner machine must have Go installed (1.24.4 or later)
|
||||||
|
- Docker is optional (for building Docker images)
|
||||||
|
- Check if runner is online in the UI
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
