Nicolas 547a0ff297 feat: show run command, shell and env in collapsible group before step output (#847)
## Summary

Mirrors the GitHub Actions runner behaviour where each `run:` step shows a collapsible **"Run \<command\>"** section containing the script, shell command, and environment variables before the actual step output.

### What changes

- **`pkg/runner/step_run.go`**: In `stepRun.main()`, two new executors are added to the pipeline:
  1. `logRunGroupHeader()` — runs after `setupShellCommandExecutor()` (so `sr.cmdline` is already resolved). Emits a `::group::Run <step>` log entry followed by the interpolated script, the full shell command line, and the step's env vars (sorted, internal vars filtered out).
  2. The existing execution function now has `defer rawLogger.Infof("::endgroup::")` so the group is closed after the step finishes, regardless of success or failure.

### Env var filtering

Internal runner vars are hidden (`GITHUB_*`, `GITEA_*`, `RUNNER_*`, `INPUT_*`, `PATH`, `HOME`) — only user-relevant vars are shown, matching what GitHub Actions displays.

### Example output

```
▼ Run cargo build
  cargo build
  shell: bash --noprofile --norc -e -o pipefail {0}
  env:
    CARGO_HOME: /home/runner/.cargo
    CARGO_INCREMENTAL: 0
    CARGO_TERM_COLOR: always
  <actual build output>
```

act runner

Act runner is a runner for Gitea.

Installation

Prerequisites

Docker Engine Community version is required for docker mode. To install Docker CE, follow the official install instructions.

Download pre-built binary

Visit here and download the right version for your platform.

Build from source

make build

Build a docker image

make docker

Quickstart

Actions are disabled by default, so you need to add the following to the configuration file of your Gitea instance to enable it:

[actions]
ENABLED=true

Register

./act_runner register

And you will be asked to input:

  1. Gitea instance URL, like http://192.168.8.8:3000/. You should use your gitea instance ROOT_URL as the instance argument and you should not use localhost or 127.0.0.1 as instance IP;
  2. Runner token, you can get it from http://192.168.8.8:3000/admin/actions/runners;
  3. Runner name, you can just leave it blank;
  4. Runner labels, you can just leave it blank.

The process looks like:

INFO Registering runner, arch=amd64, os=darwin, version=0.1.5.
WARN Runner in user-mode.
INFO Enter the Gitea instance URL (for example, https://gitea.com/):
http://192.168.8.8:3000/
INFO Enter the runner token:
fe884e8027dc292970d4e0303fe82b14xxxxxxxx
INFO Enter the runner name (if set empty, use hostname: Test.local):

INFO Enter the runner labels, leave blank to use the default labels (comma-separated, for example, ubuntu-latest:docker://docker.gitea.com/runner-images:ubuntu-latest):

INFO Registering runner, name=Test.local, instance=http://192.168.8.8:3000/, labels=[ubuntu-latest:docker://docker.gitea.com/runner-images:ubuntu-latest ubuntu-22.04:docker://docker.gitea.com/runner-images:ubuntu-22.04 ubuntu-20.04:docker://docker.gitea.com/runner-images:ubuntu-20.04].
DEBU Successfully pinged the Gitea instance server
INFO Runner registered successfully.

You can also register with command line arguments.

./act_runner register --instance http://192.168.8.8:3000 --token <my_runner_token> --no-interactive

If the registry succeed, it will run immediately. Next time, you could run the runner directly.

Run

./act_runner daemon

Run with docker

docker run -e GITEA_INSTANCE_URL=https://your_gitea.com -e GITEA_RUNNER_REGISTRATION_TOKEN=<your_token> -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock --name my_runner gitea/act_runner:nightly

Configuration

You can also configure the runner with a configuration file. The configuration file is a YAML file, you can generate a sample configuration file with ./act_runner generate-config.

./act_runner generate-config > config.yaml

You can specify the configuration file path with -c/--config argument.

./act_runner -c config.yaml register # register with config file
./act_runner -c config.yaml daemon # run with config file

You can read the latest version of the configuration file online at config.example.yaml.
