Hi developer 👋🏻!

With this repo you can test how Actions Runner Controller works using Dev Containers 🐳 So you don't have to deploy any Kubernetes cluster anywhere 🤓

Just clone this and install Dev Containers extension in your Visual Studio Code, create a GitHub App with this permissions:

• Repository permissions: Actions: Read-only and Metadata: Read-only
• Organization permissions: Self-hosted runners: read and write

Install your GitHub App in your organization and copy your App ID and your Installation ID in a .env file inside .devcontainer folder with this format:

GITHUB_APP_ID=<YOUR_GITHUB_APP_ID>
GITHUB_APP_INSTALLATION_ID=<YOUR_GITHUB_APP_INSTALLATION_ID>

Last thing is generate a private key for your GitHub App and save it as private-key.pem in .devcontainer. And you are ready to go! The only thing missing is to Reopen in Container:

If you speak/understand Spanish 🇪🇸 you can read the detail here: Cómo desplegar y escalar GitHub self-hosted runners en Kubernetes

See you 👋🏻!
