KairosDB is a distributed time-series database built on top of Apache Cassandra. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing KairosDB on Arch Linux.
Before installing KairosDB, you will need:
To install Docker, run the following command in your Arch Linux terminal:
sudo pacman -S docker
Once Docker is installed, we need to start the Docker service. Run the following command to start the Docker service:
sudo systemctl start docker
Now, we need to clone the KairosDB repository from GitHub. To do this, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/kairosdb/kairosdb.git
After cloning the repository, navigate into the kairosdb directory using the following command:
cd kairosdb
Once you are inside the kairosdb directory, run the following command to build the KairosDB Docker image:
sudo docker build --build-arg BUILD_VERSION=1.3.3 -t kairosdb .
This will build the KairosDB Docker image and tag it as "kairosdb".
Now that we have the KairosDB Docker image, we can run it using the following command:
sudo docker run -p 8080:8080 -p 4242:4242 kairosdb
This will start KairosDB on your Arch Linux system and allow you to access it using your web browser.
Open your web browser and navigate to the following URL:
http://localhost:8080/
You should now see the KairosDB web interface. From here, you can create new databases and add data to them.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured KairosDB on your Arch Linux system using Docker.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
