# Hacking # Hacking
The Forgejo runner depends on [a fork of ACT](https://code.forgejo.org/forgejo/act) and is a dependency of the [setup-forgejo action](https://code.forgejo.org/actions/setup-forgejo). Together they provide a development environment with end to end testing. Each repository also has some unit testing that can be used to quickly detect the simplest mistakes such as a failure to compile or static code checking failures (vulnerability, lint, etc.). The Forgejo runner depends on [a fork of ACT](https://code.forgejo.org/forgejo/act) and is a dependency of the [setup-forgejo action](https://code.forgejo.org/actions/setup-forgejo). See [the full dependency graph](https://code.forgejo.org/actions/cascading-pr/#forgejo-dependencies) for a global view.
Assuming the modifications to the [Forgejo runner](https://code.forgejo.org/forgejo/runner) are pushed to a fork in a branch named `wip-runner-change`, a pull request will verify it compiles and the binary is sane (running `forgejo-runner --version`). It will not verify that it is able to properly run jobs when connected to a live Forgejo instance.
For end to end testing, a [workflow](https://code.forgejo.org/forgejo/runner/src/branch/main/.forgejo/workflows/cascade-setup-forgejo.yml) will [create a PR](https://code.forgejo.org/actions/cascading-pr/) in [setup-forgejo](https://code.forgejo.org/actions/setup-forgejo/pulls) and wait for its success.
The runner can be released by merging the `wip-runner-change` branch and by pushing a new tag, for instance `v10.2.3`. For more information see the [documentation that details this release process](https://forgejo.org/docs/next/developer/RELEASE/#forgejo-runner-publication) in the Forgejo infrastructure. Once published, the [setup-forgejo](https://code.forgejo.org/actions/setup-forgejo/) action can be updated to default to this latest version knowing it already passed integration tests.
## ACT
Assuming the modifications to [ACT](https://code.forgejo.org/forgejo/act) are pushed to a fork in a branch named `wip-act-change`, a pull request will verify it compiles. It will not verify that the Forgejo runner can compile with it.
For verifying it is compatible with the Forgejo runner, a branch should be pushed to a fork of the [Forgejo runner](https://code.forgejo.org/forgejo/runner) (for instance `wip-runner-change`) that uses the ACT version under test in `wip-act-change` by modifying `go.mod` to contain something like the following and running `go mod tidy`:
```
replace github.com/nektos/act => code.forgejo.org/earl-warren/act wip-act-change
```
Where https://code.forgejo.org/earl-warren/act is the URL of the ACT fork and `wip-act-change` is the branch where the changes under test were pushed. It will not verify that it is able to properly run jobs when connected to a live Forgejo instance. The `wip-runner-change` branch must, in turn, be tested as explained above. When the Forgejo runner modified to include the changes in the `wip-act-change` branch pass the end to end test of the `setup-forgejo` action, it is ready to be released.
ACT can be released by merging the `wip-act-change` branch and by pushing a new tag, for instance `v48.8.20`. Once published, the Forgejo runner can be updated to default to this latest version knowing it already passed end to end tests with something like:
```
replace github.com/nektos/act => code.forgejo.org/forgejo/act v48.8.20
```
