Lighthouse CI server on Google Cloud Run

PoC of running Lighthouse CI on Cloud Run, powered by litestream

Features

• Serverless platform (scales to zero, pay-as-you-go)
• Replication on GCS

Usage

Build the image

$ PROJECT=$(gcloud config get-value project)
$ NAME=lhci-run
$ TAG=eu.gcr.io/$PROJECT/$NAME # see https://cloud.google.com/container-registry/docs/overview#registries
$ REGION=europe-west1 # see https://cloud.google.com/run/docs/locations 

$ # build the image
$ docker build -t $TAG .
$ # upload to GCR
$ docker push $TAG

$ # Create the bucket (only set the variable if you already have one)
$ GCS_BUCKET=$NAME
$ gsutil mb -c standard -l $REGION -b on gs://$GCS_BUCKET

$ gcloud beta run deploy $NAME \
  --image=$TAG \
  --allow-unauthenticated \
  --set-env-vars=REPLICA_URL=gcs://$GCS_BUCKET/db \
  --execution-environment=gen2 \
  --region=$REGION 

Why?

This may be the cheapest way to host a Lighthouse CI server.

Also I wanted to see if it's possible.
