Metabase is an open-source business intelligence tool that enables users to perform data visualizations, build interactive dashboards, and generate ad hoc reports. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install Metabase on MXLinux Latest using the command-line interface.
The first step you need to take is to update your system with the latest updates. To do so, open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
Metabase requires Java to run. You can either install OpenJDK or Oracle JDK. In this tutorial, we will install OpenJDK.
To install OpenJDK on MXLinux Latest, run the following command:
sudo apt install -y openjdk-11-jre-headless
This will install the latest version of OpenJDK on your system.
To download Metabase, go to the Metabase website, and click on the "Download" button. Choose the "Linux" option, and then choose the "Generic" option.
You will see a link to download the Metabase.jar file. Right-click on the link and copy the link address.
Next, open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo curl -o /opt/metabase.jar <paste-the-copied-link-address-here>
This will download the Metabase.jar file to the /opt directory.
Now, you can run Metabase using the following command:
sudo java -jar /opt/metabase.jar
This will start the Metabase setup wizard in your terminal. Follow the instructions to complete the installation process.
Once the installation is complete, Metabase will be available at http://localhost:3000 in your web browser.
Metabase is now installed on your MXLinux Latest system. You can use it to create data visualizations, build interactive dashboards, and generate ad hoc reports. Enjoy using Metabase!
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!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
