+
+Please note we have a code of conduct, please follow it in all your interactions with the project.
+
+## Creating a new runner
+
+To create a new runner you must create a folder named after it that contains a `Dockerfile` and a `docker_init.sh` file. You can use the `r_dev` folder as an example.
+
+Once your container, with all the necessary tools, is built with the `docker_init.sh` script`s (with executable rights). You need to register an account on the [Docker store](https://store.docker.com).
+
+You can now execute the following command to upload your image to the [Docker store](https://store.docker.com). Where `<image_name>` is the name of the image you just built from your `Dockerfile` and `<docker_login>` is the login of your account on the [Docker store](https://store.docker.com).
+
+```sh
+docker login
+docker tag <image_name> <docker_login>/<image_name>
+docker push <docker_login>/<image_name>
+```
+
+You then need to create a `\*_runner_register.sh` script similar to the `r_dev_runner_register.sh` script with executable rights. You will need to edit the following arguments:
+
+- `--docker-image <docker_login>/<image_name>`
+- `--description "docker runner for <image_name>"`
+- `--tag-list "docker, <some other tag identifying your runner>"`
+
+You can now register your runner and test it.
+
+
+## Pull Request Process
+
+1. Ensure any install or build dependencies are removed before the end of the layer when doing a 
+   build.
+2. Update the README.md with details of changes to the interface, this includes new environment 
+   variables, exposed ports, useful file locations and container parameters.
+3. Increase the version numbers in any examples files and the README.md to the new version that this
+Pull Request would represent. The versioning scheme we use is [SemVer](http://semver.org/).
+4. You may merge the Pull Request in once you have the sign-off of two other developers, or if you do not have permission to do that, you may request the second reviewer to merge it for you.

README.md

+# GitLab Runners
+
+This repository contains scripts to launch GitLab Runners for your group.
+Once configured, GitLab runners are called by the GitLab server to perform computations (package, building, test, etc) on your code, after each commit. Runners are not executed on the server but on remote computer accessible by the network.
+This repository contains various scripts to initialise a GitLab Runner, to register it for your group with the GitLab server, and to launch it.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+You need the registration token for your group from the GitLab server.
+For this go to your group page, **settings**, **CI/CD** and **Runners settings**. For the LBMC group, this corresponds to the following url :
+
+[https://gitlab.biologie.ens-lyon.fr/groups/LBMC/-/settings/ci_cd](https://gitlab.biologie.ens-lyon.fr/groups/LBMC/-/settings/ci_cd)
+
+Cloning this repository:
+
+```sh
+git clone gitlab_lbmc:LBMC/gitlab_runner.git
+```
+
+### Installing
+
+First, we need to build a custom container of the gitlab-runner with the following command.
+
+```sh
+sudo mkdir -p /srv/gitlab-runner/config
+gitlab_runner/docker_init.sh
+```
+
+This will build the `gitlab_runner` container with the certificate of the [gitlab.biologie.ens-lyon.fr](https://gitlab.biologie.ens-lyon.fr/) website installed.
+
+This container will be the process that register and manage the GitLab runners on your computer.
+
+To run the runners safely themselves, we are going to instantiate new containers, for each runner.
+For example, to have a runner for `R` development `r_dev/Dockerfile`. Those containers must be available from the [Docker store](https://store.docker.com/community/images/lmodolo/r_dev/tags).
+
+The `gitlab_runner` container will be able to pull them and launch them (within the `r_dev:3.5.1` container for the `r_dev` example)
+
+
+## Registering a Runner
+
+To register a runner you need to use the `*_runner_register.sh` scripts.
+
+For example, for a `r_dev:3.5.1` runner register it with the following command, where `<group_token>` is the token of your group :
+
+```sh
+./r_dev_runner_register.sh <group_token>
+```
+
+You can check the runners registered in the **CI/CD** settings of your group.
+
+## Launching your Runners
+
+To launch your runners execute the following command:
+
+```sh
+./runner_start.sh
+```
+
+To check the GitLab runner status:
+
+```sh
+docker ps
+```
+
+## Sopping your Runners
+
+To stop your runners, execute the following command:
+
+```sh
+./runner_stop.sh
+```
