# K8s Hooks
## Description
This implementation provides a way to dynamically spin up jobs to run container workflows, rather then relying on the default docker implementation. It is meant to be used when the runner itself is running in k8s, for example when using the [Actions Runner Controller](https://github.com/actions-runner-controller/actions-runner-controller)
## Pre-requisites
Some things are expected to be set when using these hooks
- The runner itself should be running in a pod, with a service account with the following permissions
```
- apiGroups: [""]
resources: ["pods"]
verbs: ["get", "list", "watch", "create", "update", "patch", "delete"]
- apiGroups: [""]
resources: ["pods/exec"]
verbs: ["get", "list", "watch", "create", "update", "patch", "delete"]
- apiGroups: [""]
resources: ["pods/log"]
verbs: ["get", "list", "watch", "create", "update", "patch", "delete"]
- apiGroups: ["batch"]
resources: ["jobs"]
verbs: ["get", "list", "watch", "create", "update", "patch", "delete"]
```
- The `ACTIONS_RUNNER_POD_NAME` env should be set to the name of the pod
- The `ACTIONS_RUNNER_REQUIRE_JOB_CONTAINER` env should be set to true to prevent the runner from running any jobs outside of a container
- The runner pod should map a persistent volume claim into the `_work` directory
- The `ACTIONS_RUNNER_CLAIM_NAME` env should be set to the persistent volume claim that contains the runner's working directory
- Some actions runner env's are expected to be set. These are set automatically by the runner.
- `RUNNER_WORKSPACE` is expected to be set to the workspace of the runner
- `GITHUB_WORKSPACE` is expected to be set to the workspace of the job
## Limitations
- Container actions
- Building container actions from a dockerfile is not supported at this time
- Container actions will not have access to the services network or job container network
- Docker [create options](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#jobsjob_idcontaineroptions) are not supported
