# Gitea Actions Setup Guide
## Prerequisites
1. **Gitea Version**: Ensure you're running Gitea 1.19.0 or later
2. **Gitea Actions Enabled**: Check your Gitea configuration
## Step 1: Enable Gitea Actions in app.ini
Add or modify these settings in your Gitea `app.ini`:
```ini
[actions]
ENABLED = true
DEFAULT_ACTIONS_URL = https://gitea.com
```
## Step 2: Install Gitea Act Runner
### Option A: Using Docker
```bash
docker run -d \
--name gitea-runner \
--restart unless-stopped \
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
-v gitea-runner-data:/data \
-e GITEA_INSTANCE_URL=https://gitea.nothaft.cloud \
-e GITEA_RUNNER_REGISTRATION_TOKEN=<your-registration-token> \
-e GITEA_RUNNER_NAME=docker-runner \
gitea/act_runner:latest
```
### Option B: Using Binary
1. Download the act_runner:
```bash
wget https://gitea.com/gitea/act_runner/releases/download/v0.2.5/act_runner-0.2.5-linux-amd64
chmod +x act_runner-0.2.5-linux-amd64
sudo mv act_runner-0.2.5-linux-amd64 /usr/local/bin/act_runner
```
2. Register the runner:
```bash
act_runner register \
--instance https://gitea.nothaft.cloud \
--token <your-registration-token> \
--name "my-runner" \
--labels "ubuntu-latest:docker://node:16-bullseye,ubuntu-22.04:docker://node:16-bullseye"
```
3. Start the runner:
```bash
act_runner daemon
```
## Step 3: Get Registration Token
1. Go to your Gitea instance admin panel
2. Navigate to Site Administration → Actions → Runners
3. Click "Create new Runner"
4. Copy the registration token
## Step 4: Repository Settings
1. Go to your repository settings in Gitea
2. Navigate to Settings → Actions → General
3. Ensure Actions are enabled for the repository
## Step 5: Convert GitHub Actions to Gitea Actions
While Gitea Actions is mostly compatible with GitHub Actions, there are some differences:
### Workflow Location
- GitHub Actions: `.github/workflows/`
- Gitea Actions: `.gitea/workflows/` (preferred) or `.github/workflows/`
### Supported Features
✅ Supported:
- Basic workflow syntax
- Common actions like `actions/checkout`
- Environment variables
- Secrets
- Artifacts
- Matrix builds
❌ Not Supported:
- Some GitHub-specific actions
- GitHub Packages
- Some advanced features
## Step 6: Debug Workflow Issues
If workflows are stuck in "waiting":
1. **Check Runner Status**:
```bash
# If using Docker
docker logs gitea-runner
# If using binary
journalctl -u act_runner -f
```
2. **Check Gitea Logs**:
```bash
# Check Gitea logs for action-related errors
tail -f /path/to/gitea/log/gitea.log | grep -i action
```
3. **Verify Runner Labels**:
- Ensure your runner has the labels that match your workflow's `runs-on`
- Common labels: `ubuntu-latest`, `ubuntu-22.04`, `ubuntu-20.04`
4. **Check Repository Permissions**:
- Ensure the repository has Actions enabled
- Check if there are any branch protection rules blocking Actions
## Step 7: Alternative - Use Drone CI
Since you already have Drone CI configured (`.drone.yml`), you might want to use that instead:
```yaml
# Your existing .drone.yml is already set up for CI/CD
kind: pipeline
type: docker
name: default
# ... rest of your Drone configuration
```
## Common Issues and Solutions
### Issue: Workflows stuck in "waiting"
**Solution**: No runners available. Register and start a runner.
### Issue: Runner can't connect
**Solution**: Check firewall rules and ensure runner can reach Gitea instance.
### Issue: Docker-in-Docker errors
**Solution**: Mount Docker socket or use privileged mode for runner.
### Issue: Actions not showing in UI
**Solution**: Enable Actions in both Gitea config and repository settings.
## Next Steps
1. Check your Gitea version and configuration
2. Install and register a runner
3. Enable Actions for your repository
4. Test with the simple workflow created in `.gitea/workflows/test.yml`
5. Once working, migrate your GitHub Actions workflows if needed
