Gitlab runner for developer forks

quick question: does gitlab.orekit.org provide any shared runners for the CI/CD pipelines? or is there a recommended setup guide to configure runners for a developer fork? It’s simple enough to set one up in AWS, but before I did that I figure it’s worth checking here.

thanks!

Hi @greyskyy

Because we only have 2 runners, by default the developer forks are not linked to the GitLab runners. However, for people interested in contributing to Orekit, we can add the fork to the list of runners to allow the contributor to benefit from the CI/CD before contributing their code.

Best regards,
Bryan

I saw in another topic that you’re interesting in contributing to Orekit. Therefore, I added your fork to the list of projects that can use the runner. Like that, you will be able to see the CI/CD pipelines.

Hi @greyskyy,

As an addition to Bryan’s answer, I was going to explain how to enrol your own Gitlab Runner executors if necessary, but I noticed that you had enrolled yours (as other contributors have already done). So you’ve figured out how to do it. It’s perfect.

I welcome you to the project and thank you in advance for your contributions.
