How to Install Atomic Server on Clear Linux Latest

In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of installing Atomic Server on Clear Linux Latest. Atomic Server is a semantic web framework that allows developers to build decentralized applications using linked data.

Prerequisites

Before we get started, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:

• A machine running Clear Linux Latest
• A command-line interface (CLI)
• A basic understanding of Rust programming language

Step 1: Install Rust

Before we can install Atomic Server, we need to install Rust. To install Rust, follow the steps below:

1. Open the terminal on your Clear Linux Latest machine.

2. Update the package repository and upgrade the installed packages using the command below:

   sudo swupd update && sudo swupd upgrade
   

3. Next, install Rust using the following command:

   sudo swupd bundle-add rust-basic
   

4. Verify that Rust has been installed by running the following command:

   rustc --version
   

   This command should return the version number of Rust installed on your machine.

Step 2: Install Dependencies

Atomic Server uses several dependencies that we need to install. To install these dependencies, follow the steps below:

1. Open the terminal on your Clear Linux Latest machine.

2. Install the following dependencies:

   sudo swupd bundle-add libssl-dev libpq-dev
   

Step 3: Install Atomic Server

Now that we have installed Rust and its dependencies, we can proceed to install Atomic Server. To install Atomic Server, follow the steps below:

1. Open the terminal on your machine.

2. Clone the Atomic Server repository:

   git clone https://github.com/atomicdata-dev/atomic-data-rust.git
   

3. Change directory to the cloned repository:

   cd atomic-data-rust
   

4. Build the Atomic Server using the following command:

   cargo build --release --features="cli"
   

   This command will build the Atomic Server executable and place it in the target/release directory.

5. Run the server using the following command:

   cargo run --release --features="cli" serve
   

   This command will start the Atomic Server and listen for requests on port 3000.
