This will help avoid issues related to service identity folder permissions and long file path restrictions on Windows. The following snipped needs to be run on `powershell`: ``` powershell # Create a folder under the drive root mkdir \actions-runner ; cd \actions-runner # Download the latest runner package Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://github.com/actions/runner/releases/download/v/actions-runner-win-x64-.zip -OutFile actions-runner-win-x64-.zip # Extract the installer Add-Type -AssemblyName System.IO.Compression.FileSystem ; [System.IO.Compression.ZipFile]::ExtractToDirectory("$PWD\actions-runner-win-x64-.zip", "$PWD") ``` ## OSX ``` bash # Create a folder mkdir actions-runner && cd actions-runner # Download the latest runner package curl -O -L https://github.com/actions/runner/releases/download/v/actions-runner-osx-x64-.tar.gz # Extract the installer tar xzf ./actions-runner-osx-x64-.tar.gz ``` ## Linux x64 ``` bash # Create a folder mkdir actions-runner && cd actions-runner # Download the latest runner package curl -O -L https://github.com/actions/runner/releases/download/v/actions-runner-linux-x64-.tar.gz # Extract the installer tar xzf ./actions-runner-linux-x64-.tar.gz ``` ## Linux arm64 ``` bash # Create a folder mkdir actions-runner && cd actions-runner # Download the latest runner package curl -O -L https://github.com/actions/runner/releases/download/v/actions-runner-linux-arm64-.tar.gz # Extract the installer tar xzf ./actions-runner-linux-arm64-.tar.gz ``` ## Linux arm ``` bash # Create a folder mkdir actions-runner && cd actions-runner # Download the latest runner package curl -O -L https://github.com/actions/runner/releases/download/v/actions-runner-linux-arm-.tar.gz # Extract the installer tar xzf ./actions-runner-linux-arm-.tar.gz ``` ## Using your self hosted runner For additional details about configuring, running, or shutting down the runner please check out our [product docs.](https://help.github.com/en/actions/automating-your-workflow-with-github-actions/adding-self-hosted-runners) ## SHA-256 Checksums The SHA-256 checksums for the packages included in this build are shown below: - actions-runner-win-x64-.zip - actions-runner-osx-x64-.tar.gz - actions-runner-linux-x64-.tar.gz - actions-runner-linux-arm64-.tar.gz - actions-runner-linux-arm-.tar.gz - actions-runner-win-x64--noexternals.zip - actions-runner-osx-x64--noexternals.tar.gz - actions-runner-linux-x64--noexternals.tar.gz - actions-runner-linux-arm64--noexternals.tar.gz - actions-runner-linux-arm--noexternals.tar.gz - actions-runner-win-x64--noruntime.zip - actions-runner-osx-x64--noruntime.tar.gz - actions-runner-linux-x64--noruntime.tar.gz - actions-runner-linux-arm64--noruntime.tar.gz - actions-runner-linux-arm--noruntime.tar.gz - actions-runner-win-x64--noruntime-noexternals.zip - actions-runner-osx-x64--noruntime-noexternals.tar.gz - actions-runner-linux-x64--noruntime-noexternals.tar.gz - actions-runner-linux-arm64--noruntime-noexternals.tar.gz - actions-runner-linux-arm--noruntime-noexternals.tar.gz
