actions/runner v2.282.0

on GitHub

Features

• Support the --ephemeral flag (#660)
  • This optional flag will configure the runner to only take one job, and let the service un-configure the runner after that job finishes.
  • Expect to see more info in the Github API documentation soon. We'll link to those docs directly as they become generally available!

Bugs

• Fix a bug in script/delete wherein a repo with multiple runners would be unable to find the correct runner (#1268) (#1269)
• Mitigate a race condition when requesting an OIDC Id_token (#1320)
• Make client retries more resilient in JobServer (#1316)

Misc

• Increase readability of colored console output (#1295) (#1319)
• Add more network troubleshooting to the docs (#1325)
• Bump path-parse from 1.0.6 to 1.0.7 (#1256)

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:

# 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/v2.282.0/actions-runner-win-x64-2.282.0.zip -OutFile actions-runner-win-x64-2.282.0.zip
# Extract the installer
Add-Type -AssemblyName System.IO.Compression.FileSystem ; 
[System.IO.Compression.ZipFile]::ExtractToDirectory("$PWD\actions-runner-win-x64-2.282.0.zip", "$PWD")
