How I can catch output of gitlab-runner in bash

Why when I write into terminal

#!/bin/bash out=`gitlab-runner list` echo "list: $out"

out variable is still empty and output of the command always display in terminal? Install Gitlab Runner

out

How I can catch this output?

What's the output you're getting? A list and then a line with list: afterwards?

gitlab-runner list outputs the list on stderr, thus you would not catch it as output to stdout.

see Bash how do you capture stderr to a variable?

and change your script to:

#!/bin/bash out="$(gitlab-runner list 2>&1)" echo "list: $out"
