在 gitlab-runner docker exec 中运行默认 before_script

Question

I have a gitlab ci configuration that I want to run locally. I can see that I can do that using gitlab-runner docker exec in this answer: Use GitLab CI to run tests locally? . However, my gitlab configuration uses a default before_script, and when I run a job with gitlab-runner docker exec <job-id> , the default before_script doesn't get run.

Here is an example configuration that demonstrates the issue

image: openjdk:8

default:
  before_script:
    - echo TEST1
    - echo TEST1
    - echo TEST1
    - echo TEST1

test:
  script:
    - echo TEST3

I can get default before_script to run in the gitlab pipeline, just not locally. If I run gitlab-runner exec docker test with this configuration, only the TEST3 gets printed. How can I get the default before_script to run?

Answer 1

It seems that the default: yml keyword is not currently supported by the gitlab-runner exec command: https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/commands/#limitations-of-gitlab-runner-exec . So there appears to be no way to do what I am trying to do.

There is apparently plans by Gitlab to fix this: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-runner/-/issues/2797 , but no timeline given for when/if this will be delivered.

Answer 2

image: openjdk:8

stages:
  - default
  - test

default:
  before_script:
    - echo TEST1
    - echo TEST1
    - echo TEST1
    - echo TEST1

test:
  script:
    - echo TEST3

or

before_script:
    - echo TEST1
    - echo TEST1
    - echo TEST1
    - echo TEST1

test:
  script:
    - echo TEST3
