GitLab Runner Droplet Monitor

Monitor Digital Ocean for stale droplets created by GitLab Runner

Configuration

{
  "log-dest": "os.Stdout",
  "api-key": "",
  "threshold": 5400,
  "delete-stale": true
}

• log-dest: set to a path to write to a log file, otherwise os.Stdout
• api-key: Digital Ocean Personal Access Token
• threshold: time, in seconds, after which to consider a runner stale
• delete-stale: whether to delete stale runners, in addition to reporting them

A note about threshold

This value needs to be greater than the job timeout specified in your GitLab Runner configuration, otherwise a runner may erroneously be considered stale.

Installation

1. Download the appropriate binary from tagged releases, or build the binary yourself.
2. Copy config-sample.json to an appropriate location and update the default values as needed.
3. Create a cron task to periodically run the monitor.

Usage

./glrdomon -config config.json

• -config: specify path to config file, otherwise assumes ./config.json relative to the binary
