Remove GoRunner

Stop GoRunner and remove it, keeping its data or deleting it for good.

5 min · Self-hosted

First take a backup you can restore: Back up and restore. Your own database, Redis and bucket are never touched here.

On a Docker server

1.Stop GoRunner

In the install folder. This removes the containers and keeps every volume, so docker compose up -d brings the same installation back.

bash
cd gorunner
docker compose down

2.Delete the data

Danger This deletes the built-in database, file storage, Redis and certificates. There is no undo.

The volumes are named after the project, gorunner_ unless the setup was given another --project.

bash
docker compose down -v

3.Delete the install folder

It holds .env, with the encryption key and your passwords. Keep a copy if you might restore the backup.

bash
cd ..
rm -rf gorunner

On Kubernetes

1.Uninstall the release

This removes GoRunner’s pods, Services and Ingress. The bundled stores’ volumes and their gorunner-bundled Secret stay, so installing again under the same name opens the same data.

bash
helm uninstall gorunner --namespace gorunner

2.Delete the bundled stores’ data

Only with the bundled stores. This deletes their data for good.

bash
kubectl --namespace gorunner delete pvc \
  -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=gorunner
kubectl --namespace gorunner \
  delete secret gorunner-bundled

3.Delete your own Secrets

The Secrets you made at install, gorunner-secrets and ghcr, stay until you delete them. Keep a copy of ENCRYPTION_KEY if you might restore a backup.

bash
kubectl --namespace gorunner \
  delete secret gorunner-secrets ghcr
