You could also generate config file with docker:
```bash
docker run --entrypoint="" --rm -it gitea/act_runner:latest act_runner generate-config > config.yaml

As mentioned, you can remove it if you want to run jobs in the host directly.
To be clear, the "host" actually means the container which is running the act runner now, instead of the host machine.
### Set up the runner using docker compose
You could also set up the runner using the following `docker-compose.yml`:
```yml
version: "3.8"
services:
runner:
image: gitea/act_runner:nightly
environment:
CONFIG_FILE: /config.yaml
GITEA_INSTANCE_URL: "${INSTANCE_URL}"

GITEA_RUNNER_LABELS: "${RUNNER_LABELS}"
volumes:
- ./config.yaml:/config.yaml
- ./data:/data
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock

### 使用 Docker compose 运行 Runner
您亦可使用如下的 `docker-compose.yml`:
```yml

services:
runner:

### 当您使用 Docker 镜像启动 Runner如何配置 Cache
如果你不打算在工作流中使用 `actions/cache`,你可以忽略本段。
