Database Setup

Execute the dbsetup.sh script without any parameters as shown below. In this example, we are going to use MySQL as StreamGrids backend as it's already available in the Cloudera VM.

[cloudera@quickstart ~/StreamGrids]# sh dbsetup.sh⏎ Supported DB⏎

1. Embedded ⏎
2. Oracle⏎
3. MySQL⏎
4. PostgreSQL⏎

Select Database Type(Enter 1, 2, 3 , 4 or leave empty and press empty to select the default DB):3⏎

Building

Now build StreamGrids using (note StreamGrids may not compile if the settings.xml is not passed from the commandline so be sure to use the -s option. When building for the first time, it might take a while as maven resolves and downloads the jar libraries from diffrent repositories.

mvn -s settings.xml clean install -P cdh52

Installing StreamGrids

After building StreamGrids successfully run

sh install-scripts.sh local

It'll install the StreamGrids scripts and artifacts in /home/cloudera/bdre

Using StreamGrids

After a successful build, start the StreamGrids UI service

[cloudera@quickstart ~/StreamGrids]$ sh quick-run.sh

Use Google Chrome browser from the host machine and open http://VM_IP:28850/mdui/pages/content.page⏎
