chmod +x forgejo-runner
wget -O forgejo-runner.asc https://code.forgejo.org/forgejo/runner/releases/download/v3.3.0/forgejo-runner-3.3.0-linux-amd64.asc
gpg --keyserver keys.openpgp.org --recv EB114F5E6C0DC2BCDD183550A4B61A2DC5923710
gpg --verify forgejo-runner.asc forgejo-runner

But doesn't tell you that you need to register too

./forgejo-runner register

• Forgejo instance URL: https://codeberg.org
• Runner token: Get at your organization "Settings > Actions > Runners"
• Rest is up to you to fill or not

Start runner with:

sudo ./forgejo-runner daemon

application

• Create an application at your organization "Settings > Applications"
• Redirect URIs: http://<your-ip>:<your-port>/authorize
  • I'm using http just for learning
  • Remember to have your modem configured to accept connection to your port.
  • An example of redirect uri: http://127.0.0.1:8000/authorize.

After creation, it will give you a "Client ID" and "Client Secret" (save it to use with woodpecker-ci).
