OS Prerequisite
This guide assumes two thigs:
- your machine has access to the internet to install the various packages
- you are running on the Linux Ubuntu 14.04 distro.
Other distros may work but we haven't tested against these yet
RAM: 4GB
Disk Space: Minimum 7GB
CPUs: 2 VCores preferred.
Clone this repository into your local file system to copy the installation scripts:
$ sudo apt-get install git
$ git clone https://github.com/pndaproject/red-pnda.git
The installation is driven by the scripts/install-dependencies.sh file which installs all the necessary dependencies and starts installing the required components one-by-one. But first...
Login as root:
$ sudo su # this is important
IMPORTANT: If you're behind a proxy server, set the proxy ENV variables prior to running the script(s).
$ export http_proxy="http://<your_http_proxy_server:port>"
$ export https_proxy="https://<your_https_proxy_server:port>"
Check which reachable network interface(s) you have available:
$ /sbin/ifconfig -a
Then execute the install script:
$ cd red-pnda/scripts
$ bash install-dependencies.sh <reachable-network-interface from previous e.g. eth0 or eth1>
Grab a coffee as it might take a while but, once it's done, reboot your system once:
$ sudo reboot
Go to your browser and type http://<your_ip_address> to view the PNDA console.
Note: If you are using AWS or any other cloud provider, refer to this guide
Congratulations...you should now have a successfully-installed-and-running Red PNDA!
If you do hit problems though, please raise an issue here
Alternatively, for development purposes, you can start the PNDA console in local mode:
$ cd /opt/pnda/console-frontend
$ sudo npm install -g grunt-cli
$ grunt
$ grunt serve
Go to your browser and type http://<your_ip_address>:8006 to view the console.
