Feature Description

I want to automate the bootstrapping of the gitea server and the registration of runners without manual steps. In my docker compose env, I'll need to either get the token manually from the web UI or the command line before passing it to the runner to register it. This feature should allow the pre-setting of runner token so that it can be specified on both the server and runners automatically.

You said you are using docker compose, so I suggest to see https://github.com/TeaChart/gitea/tree/main/templates/scripts/runner
Hope this approach can help you.

As 1.23.0 is released, you can now use the env variable to set the global runner token in Gitea side, so it is easier to register the runner. Maybe this issue can be closed.
