Drone is tested on the following versions of Ubuntu:
- Ubuntu Precise 12.04 (LTS) (64-bit)
- Ubuntu Raring 13.04 (64 bit)
Drone's only external dependency is the latest version of Docker (0.8)
Drone is packaged and distributed as a debian file. You can download an install using the following commands:
$ wget http://downloads.drone.io/latest/drone.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i drone.deb
$ sudo start drone
Once Drone is running (by default on :80) navigate to http://localhost:80/install and follow the steps in the setup wizard.
IMPORTANT You will also need a GitHub Client ID and Secret:
- Register a new application https://github.com/settings/applications
- Set the homepage URL to http://$YOUR_IP_ADDRESS/
- Set the callback URL to http://$YOUR_IP_ADDRESS/auth/login/github
- Copy the Client ID and Secret into the Drone admin console http://localhost:80/account/admin/settings
I'm working on a getting started video. Having issues with volume, but hopefully you can still get a feel for the steps:

Using MySQL
By default, Drone use sqlite as its database storage. To use MySQL/MariaDB instead, use -driver
flag
and set it to mysql
. You will need to set your DSN (-datasource
) in this form:
user:password@tcp(hostname:port)/dbname?parseTime=true
Change it according to your database settings. The parseTime above is required since drone using
time.Time
to represents TIMESTAMP
data. Please refer to [1] for more options on mysql driver.
You may also need to tweak some innodb options, especially if you're using utf8mb4
collation type.
innodb_file_format = Barracuda
innodb_file_per_table = On
innodb_large_prefix = On
Please consult to the MySQL/MariaDB documentation for further information regarding large prefix for index column and dynamic row format (which is used in Drone).

Drone use a .drone.yml configuration file in the root of your repository to run your build:
image: mischief/docker-golang
env:
- GOPATH=/var/cache/drone
script:
- go build
- go test -v
services:
- redis
notify:
email:
recipients:
- brad@drone.io
- burke@drone.io
In the above example we used a custom Docker image from index.docker.io mischief/docker-golang
Drone also provides official build images. These images are configured specifically for CI and have many common software packages pre-installed (git, xvfb, firefox, libsqlite, etc).
Official Drone images are referenced in the .drone.yml by an alias:
image: go1.2 # same as bradrydzewski/go:1.2
Here is a list of our official images:
# these two are base images. all Drone images are built on top of these
# these are BIG (~3GB) so make sure you have a FAST internet connection
docker pull bradrydzewski/ubuntu
docker pull bradrydzewski/base
# clojure images
docker pull bradrydzewski/lein # image: lein
# dart images
docker pull bradrydzewski/dart:stable # image: dart

Drone clones your repository into a Docker container at the following location:
/var/cache/drone/src/github.com/$owner/$name
Please take this into consideration when setting up your build commands, or if you are using a custom Docker image.
You can specify the --depth
option of the git clone
command (default value is 50
):
git:
depth: 1
Drone can trigger a deployment at the successful completion of your build:
deploy:
heroku:
app: safe-island-6261
publish:
s3:
acl: public-read
region: us-east-1
bucket: downloads.drone.io
access_key: C24526974F365C3B
secret_key: 2263c9751ed084a68df28fd2f658b127
source: /tmp/drone.deb
target: latest/
swift:
username: someuser
password: 030e39a1278a18828389b194b93211aa
auth_url: https://identity.api.rackspacecloud.com/v2.0
region: DFW
container: drone
source: /tmp/drone.deb
target: latest/drone.deb
branch: master
Drone currently has these deploy
and publish
plugins implemented (more to come!):
deploy
publish
Publish plugins can be limited to a specific branch using the branch
configuration
as seen above in the swift
example. If you do not specify a branch
all branches
will be published, with the exception of Pull Requests.
Drone can trigger email, hipchat and web hook notification at the beginning and completion of your build:
notify:
email:
recipients:
- brad@drone.io
- burke@drone.io
webhook:
on_success: true
on_failure: true
urls:
- http://my-deploy-hook.com
hipchat:
room: support
token: 3028700e5466d375
on_started: true
on_success: true
on_failure: true
Drone can launch database containers for your build:
services:
- cassandra
- couchdb
- couchdb:1.0
- couchdb:1.4
- couchdb:1.5
- elasticsearch
- elasticsearch:0.20
- elasticsearch:0.90
- neo4j
- neo4j:1.9
- mongodb
- mongodb:2.2
- mongodb:2.4
- mysql
- mysql:5.5
- postgres
- postgres:9.1
- rabbitmq
- rabbitmq:3.2
- redis
- riak
- zookeeper
If you omit the version, Drone will launch the latest version of the database. (For example, if you set mongodb
, Drone will launch MongoDB 2.4.)
You can also launch custom Docker containers using standard docker notation:
services:
- dockerfile/rethinkdb # same as dockerfile/rethinkdb:latest
- barnybug/elasticsearch:1.0.1
NOTE 1: database and service containers are exposed over TCP connections and have their own local IP address. If the socat utility is installed inside your Docker image, Drone will automatically proxy localhost connections to the correct IP address.
NOTE 2: avoid running services that use the same ports. For example, don't specify multiple versions of Elastic Search since the port will already be in use.
Drone can persist directories between builds. This should be used for caching dependencies to
decrease overall build time. Examples include your .npm
, .m2
, bundler
, etc.
cache:
- /usr/local/bin/go/pkg
This will cache the directory relative to the root directory of your repository:
cache:
- .npm
NOTE: this is an alpha quality feature and still has some quirks. See harness#147
You can inject params into .drone.yml.
notify:
hipchat:
room: {{hipchatRoom}}
token: {{hipchatToken}}
on_started: true
on_success: true
on_failure: true
A wall display for Drone is available as a separate service. See Drone Wall for details.
Local Drone setup for development is pretty straightforward.
You will need to clone the repo, install Vagrant and run vagrant up
.
This command will download base Ubuntu image, setup the virtual machine and build Drone.
Afterwards, you may vagrant ssh
into the vagrant instance, where docker is already installed and ready to go.
Once in the vagrant instance, run make run
, the visit http://localhost:8080/install in your browser.
The Makefile has other targets so check that out for more build, test, run configurations.
