Installing GitLab runners with Docker - Registering a runner - First job
This video demonstrates how to install runners (GitLab) with Docker, then how to register a runner, and finally, how to create your first job.
This is a great opportunity to get started with CI/CD.
There are images available; they are not official but are distributed by GitLab. We use GitLab with GitLab containers, even unofficial ones, as they are designed for this purpose.
All the documentation on running GitLab Runner in a Docker container is here:

=====================================
Retrieve the Gitlab Runner image:
docker pull gitlab/gitlab-runner:latest
Create the Gitlab Runner container:
docker run -d --name gitlab-runner --restart always -v /srv/gitlab-runner/config:/etc/gitlab-runner -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock gitlab/gitlab-runner:latest
Register the runner
Retrieve registration information
In a project, in "Settings", "CI-CD"
As administrator, in "Runners"
Register the runner:
docker exec -i -t gitlab-runner gitlab-runner register
Using the container:
docker exec -it gitlab-runner gitlab-runner --help
Test a simple job:
We add a file (yml):
.gitlab-ci.yml
testRunner:
image: debian:latest
when:manual
script:
echo "My first job."
-ls
-pwd
