In this tutorial, we will be installing Hasura on Alpine Linux Latest. Hasura is an open-source engine that helps developers build powerful and scalable GraphQL APIs quickly.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
Hasura is distributed as a Docker container, so the first step is to install Docker on Alpine Linux. To do this, run the following commands in a terminal:
$ apk update
$ apk add docker
This will update the repository and install Docker on your system.
Now that Docker is installed, we need to start the Docker service. To do this, run the following command:
$ service docker start
This will start the Docker service, which is required for running Hasura.
Next, we need to pull the Hasura image from the Docker hub. To do this, run the following command:
$ docker pull hasura/graphql-engine
This will download the latest version of Hasura from the Docker hub.
Once the Hasura image is downloaded, we are ready to run the container. To do this, run the following command:
$ docker run -d -p 8080:8080 hasura/graphql-engine
This will run the container in detached mode and map the container's port 8080 to the host's port 8080. You can use a different port if you prefer.
Finally, we need to verify that Hasura is installed and running properly. To do this, open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8080/console. If the installation was successful, you should see the Hasura console dashboard.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed Hasura on Alpine Linux Latest.
In this tutorial, we walked through the steps required to install Hasura on Alpine Linux Latest. Hasura is a powerful tool that can help developers build scalable GraphQL APIs quickly, and with these easy-to-follow steps, you can have it up and running on your system in no time.
