# GitLab CI

This page contains instructions on how to set up the GitLab CI runner on your machine. Perfect if you would like to allow us to use it in our continuous integration pipeline.

The installation is fairly simple, but there are some problems that need a workaround. In particular for Windows.

Basically, you want to follow the following instructions to set up the runner: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ci-multi-runner#install-gitlab-runner (pick the ones for your OS).

## General information needed during setup

Specify the following URL during runner setup: ``https://gitlab.com/ci``

Use the following registration token during setup: ``yWbuZXxvWK3ypissf7bL``


## On Windows?

There is currently an open issue for the GitLab CI runner which means that artifacts are not handled properly on Windows. The workaround for now is to use a slightly older version of it. For more details see [here](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ci-multi-runner/issues/1523).

Basically download v1.3.4, amd64 download here: https://gitlab-ci-multi-runner-downloads.s3.amazonaws.com/v1.3.4/binaries/gitlab-ci-multi-runner-windows-amd64.exe
