Drone CI for Cloudron

Run the Drone server on Cloudron and the agents locally.

I use this setup together with a Gitea running on the same Cloudron installation.

Requirements

Run DOCKER_REPO=your-docker-hub-user make install to install the Drone server component at drone.yourdomain.com (yourdomain.com will adapt automatically to your Cloudron setup).
Run make exec' to open the app's CLI and modify the .env' so that it can connect to your Git instance.
- See https://readme.drone.io/server/provider/gitea/#create-an-oauth-application for information on OAuth registration in Gitea.
- The drone instance runs at drone.yourdomain.com and the redirect URL would be https://drone.yourdomain.com/login.
- The secrets are automatically created and added to the .env file.
Run cloudron restart to restart the application and apply your changes.
Check that your setup works by going to https://drone.yourdomain.com.
If all looks good, run `runner/start.sh' to start the Drone agent on your local machine (it will grab the credentials directly from the installed app).
Add the drone configuration to your desired repositories

I would also like to share some very useful commands. To install the drone CLI, follow the official docs.

Go to your user settings and get the login information

export DRONE_SERVER=https://drone.9wd.eu
export DRONE_TOKEN=your token
drone info

You can also run pipelines directly from the Drone CLI:

drone exec --secret-file secrets.txt .drone.yml

A template for secrets.txt:

slack_url=https://hooks.slack.com/services/xxxxxxxxxxxx

You can either add secrets via the web interface or use drone directly from your terminal:

drone secret add -repository username/repository-name --name foo --data bar --allow-pull-request

curl -X POST -i https://drone.9wd.eu/api/repos/felix/cloudron-drone-app/builds -H "Authorization: Bearer your-token"
