Installation Guide

Greenplum:

These instructions assume you have Greenplum database in $GPHOME, and a gpadmin user account with sudo privileges.

1. Make sure you have Python setuptools installed. Log into your gpadmin account, source greenplum_path.sh, and do the following:

     cd /tmp
     wget http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.6/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.egg#md5=bfa92100bd772d5a213eedd356d64086
     sh setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.egg

Note: If you are on a Mac you are probably missing WGET. In that case just copy the http... link to your browser and download setuptools. Then CD to the download directory and repeat sh setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.egg.

2. Install python libraries used by the madlib installer.

     export CFLAGS="-L$GPHOME/ext/python/lib/ -L$GPHOME/lib/"
     $GPHOME/ext/python/bin/easy_install argparse hashlib pyyaml sqlparse 

3. Download madlib package from https://github.com/madlib/madlib-contrib/archives/master or use git to clone the current repository git@github.com:madlib/madlib-contrib.git.
