Add docs for GHA self-hosted settings #2025
Conversation
|
I'm going to merge this for now. There's a chance we need to expand a bit on the details of GPU runners but for now this is valid information even if it's in a general way for any kind of self-hosted GHA runners. |
|
so can i donate a computer of mine to conda-forge to build some packages for us ;) or is this for non-conda-forge users to setup their own self hosted stuff? |

Could somebody explain how do I interpret this? how do I use this? how can I achieve this output:
- CONFIG: osx_arm64_python3.11.____cpython
UPLOAD_PACKAGES: True
os: macos
runs_on: ['macos-14']macos-14 are github's new arm macos runners

You can't, this is only for self-hosted runners, or organizations that are not conda-forge. We haven't enabled native osx-arm64 runners with Github. See discussion at #1781

I'm trying to do it for a not conda-forge feedstock. Would be nice if smithy woudl support that in such cases, loks like most of the building blocks needed for such functionality are there. It's a PITA manually changing back to the specific runner I want every time I rerender. I also want to specify the macos version for the x86_64 runner, my builds hang for a prolonged time sometimes until timeout on macos-latest but usually run without issue on macos-11

Should we convert this to a conda-smithy issue?
Would help if we can capture what exactly is being tried, what happens now, and what the use case needs to work in the ideal case
Edit: Links to PRs, code, etc. would also be helpful context
