docker-github-runner-linux VS GitHub-Codespaces-Lab

We will actually be using a very similar approach for the docker image configuration based on one of my previous blog posts, 'Create a Docker based Self Hosted GitHub runner Linux container'. So do check out that post also if you wanted more info on how self hosted GitHub runner containers work.

You can use the following example workflow: kedaScaleTest.yml

For this step I will use a PowerShell script, Prepare-RBAC-ACI.ps1 running Azure-CLI, to create a Resource Group and grant access to our GitHub Service Principal App we created in the previous post.

I hope you have enjoyed this post and have learned something new. You can find the code samples used in this blog post on my GitHub project: docker-github-runner-windows or docker-github-runner-linux. ❤️

Open VSCode, you can clone the repo found on my GitHub project docker-github-runner-linux which contains all the files or simply follow along with the following steps. We will prepare a script that will be needed as part of our docker image creation.

Create the following Dockerfile:

All of the code samples and examples are also available on my GitHub Codespaces Demo Repository.
