The Runner (or Agent) is the engine of computation in Digital Rebar Provision. The agent can run in many different locations for different purposes.

Note

Runners are currently implemented as:

  • drpcli running the processjobs action
  • a python-based runner called drpy for the ESXi environment.

Note

drpcli is supported on many platforms and architectures.

  • linux/amd64
  • darwin/amd64
  • windows/amd64
  • linux/arm64
