DataHub

changed by zjsxzy DataHub is an experimental hosted platform (GitHub-like) for organizing, managing, sharing, collaborating, and making sense of data. It provides an efficient platform and easy to use tools/interfaces for:

• Publishing of your own data (hosting, sharing, collaboration)
• Using other’s data (querying, linking)
• Making sense of data (analysis, visualization)

Vagrant environment

Follow these steps:

1. You need internet access the first time you do these steps.
2. Download and install VirtualBox https://www.virtualbox.org/
3. Download and install Vagrant https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html
4. Add this line to your hosts file:

192.168.50.4    datahub-local.mit.edu

5. Then start the environment with:

vagrant up

After some time your environment is setup and running. You can go to http://datahub-local.mit.edu and start using Datahub.

If you want to manually stop/start your docker containers, first login into VM:

vagrant ssh

Then

• List docker containers

  sudo docker ps
  

• Stop docker datahub

  sudo docker stop datahub
  

• Start docker container

  sudo docker start datahub
  

• Execute command inside container, bellow is the example of getting shell access to container

  sudo docker exec -i -t datahub /bin/bash
  

Run test with behave:

1. Login in VM

vagrant ssh

2. Get shell access to datahub container

sudo docker exec -i -t datahub /bin/bash

3. Change directory and execute behave

cd /datahub/src
behave

Shutdown Vagrant

1. Exit docker shell with exit (if you are in docker)
2. Exit the vm with exit (if you are in vagrant VM)
3. Shutdown the vm with vagrant halt (next time you do vagrant up will be much faster as packages are already installed; there is no need for internet connection).
4. If you want to delete the vm vagrant destroy (if you do vagrant up again, it will download and install all the packages).
