Next, run the GitLab Runner container. You can use the following command to start it in detached mode:
docker run -d --name yuit-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
This command does the following:
- Runs the container in detached mode (-d).
- Names the container
yuit-gitlab-runner. - Restarts the runner automatically if it stops.
- Maps the configuration directory (/srv/gitlab-runner/config) on your host to the runner configuration directory in the container (/etc/gitlab-runner).
