# trx-rs SDK image

A single container image that is the canonical build environment for trx-rs,
used **both** by CI and by developers. It bakes in the pinned Rust toolchain
(matching `rust-toolchain.toml`) and every build dependency, so the compiler
and `clippy` are identical everywhere — no "works on my machine".

| File | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `Containerfile` | The SDK image (Debian + build deps + pinned Rust + Node + git). |
| `runner-config.example.yaml` | Example act_runner config for the CI VM (Docker executor). |

## Build and publish

```bash
# from the repo root
podman build -t git.haxx.space/sjg/trx-rs/sdk:latest container
podman login git.haxx.space
podman push git.haxx.space/sjg/trx-rs/sdk:latest
```

Tag with the Rust version too (e.g. `:1.97.1`) if you want reproducible pins.
Make the package **public** (Gitea → Packages → the image → Settings) so the CI
runner and developers can pull it without credentials. If you keep it private,
add `credentials:` under the workflow's `container:` and log the runner into the
registry.

## Developer use

Reproducible one-off build, no local toolchain needed:

```bash
podman run --rm -it -v "$PWD":/work -w /work \
  git.haxx.space/sjg/trx-rs/sdk:latest \
  cargo build --release
```

Or open the repo in the image via VS Code / JetBrains "Reopen in Container"
(`.devcontainer/devcontainer.json` points at the same image).

Building outside the container? `rust-toolchain.toml` pins the same rustc, so
`rustup` installs the matching toolchain automatically.

## CI use

`.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` runs the `lint` and `test` jobs *inside* this image
via the `container:` key, so they skip all setup and go straight to `cargo`.
The `reuse` job stays on the upstream `fsfe/reuse-action` (a Docker action the
Docker executor launches as a sibling container) — nothing REUSE-related is
baked into the SDK.

## CI runner (Alpine / OpenRC)

The runner uses the **Docker executor** (not the host executor): per-job
container isolation and standard `ubuntu-latest` semantics. `act_runner` runs
as an OpenRC service. Files provided:

| File | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `act_runner.openrc` | OpenRC init script (`supervise-daemon`, depends on docker). |
| `act_runner.confd.example` | Per-instance `conf.d` settings for multi-runner hosts. |

**Cap the thread budget.** In a VM, pin its vCPUs to specific host threads
(libvirt/KVM):

```xml
<vcpu placement='static'>2</vcpu>
<cputune>
  <vcpupin vcpu='0' cpuset='4'/>
  <vcpupin vcpu='1' cpuset='5'/>
</cputune>
```

On bare metal, the `container.options: "--cpus=2"` and `capacity: 1` in
`runner-config.example.yaml` already bound each runner.

**Set it up:**

```bash
# 1. Docker + a dedicated user with socket access
apk add docker docker-cli
rc-update add docker default && rc-service docker start
adduser -S -D -H -h /var/lib/act_runner act
addgroup act docker

# 2. act_runner binary (static Go build, works on musl)
curl -fsSL -o /usr/local/bin/act_runner \
  https://gitea.com/gitea/act_runner/releases/download/v0.2.11/act_runner-0.2.11-linux-amd64
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/act_runner

# 3. Config + register one runner per project (scope keeps their jobs apart)
install -Dm644 container/runner-config.example.yaml /etc/act_runner/trx-rs.yaml
install -d -o act /var/lib/act_runner/trx-rs
su act -s /bin/sh -c 'cd /var/lib/act_runner/trx-rs && \
  act_runner register --no-interactive \
    --instance https://git.haxx.space --token <TOKEN> \
    --name trx-rs-ci \
    --labels "ubuntu-latest:docker://catthehacker/ubuntu:act-latest"'

# 4. OpenRC service (repeat the symlink+conf.d for the second project)
install -m755 container/act_runner.openrc /etc/init.d/act_runner
ln -s act_runner /etc/init.d/act_runner.trx-rs
install -m644 container/act_runner.confd.example /etc/conf.d/act_runner.trx-rs
rc-update add act_runner.trx-rs default
rc-service act_runner.trx-rs start
```

Check it with `rc-service act_runner.trx-rs status` and
`tail -f /var/log/act_runner.trx-rs.log`.
