## Features - Continue-on-error is now possible for the composite action steps (#1763) - Now it's possible to use context evaluation in the `shell` of composite action run steps (#1767) ## Bugs - Fix a bug where job would be marked as 'cancelled' after self-hosted runner going offline (#1792) - Translate paths in `github` and `runner` contexts when running on a container (#1762) - Warn about invalid flags when configuring or running the runner (#1781) - Fix a bug where job hooks would use job level working directory (#1809) ## Misc - Allow warnings about actions using Node v12 (#1735) - Better exception handling when runner is configured with invalid Url or token (#1741) - Set user agent for websocket requests (#1791) - Gracefully handle websocket failures (#1789) ## Windows x64 We recommend configuring the runner in a root folder of the Windows drive (e.g. "C:\actions-runner"). 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
