| # DataHub Quickstart Guide
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Deploying DataHub
 | |
| 
 | |
| To deploy a new instance of DataHub, perform the following steps.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 1. Install [docker](https://docs.docker.com/install/), [jq](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/download/) and [docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/) (if
 | |
|    using Linux). Make sure to allocate enough hardware resources for Docker engine. Tested & confirmed config: 2 CPUs,
 | |
|    8GB RAM, 2GB Swap area, and 10GB disk space.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 2. Launch the Docker Engine from command line or the desktop app.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 3. Install the DataHub CLI
 | |
| 
 | |
|    a. Ensure you have Python 3.6+ installed & configured. (Check using `python3 --version`)
 | |
| 
 | |
|    b. Run the following commands in your terminal
 | |
| 
 | |
|    ```
 | |
|    python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip wheel setuptools
 | |
|    python3 -m pip uninstall datahub acryl-datahub || true  # sanity check - ok if it fails
 | |
|    python3 -m pip install --upgrade acryl-datahub
 | |
|    datahub version
 | |
|    ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| :::note
 | |
| 
 | |
|    If you see "command not found", try running cli commands with the prefix 'python3 -m' instead like `python3 -m datahub version`
 | |
|    Note that DataHub CLI does not support Python 2.x.
 | |
| 
 | |
| :::
 | |
| 
 | |
| 4. To deploy DataHub, run the following CLI command from your terminal
 | |
| 
 | |
|    ```
 | |
|    datahub docker quickstart
 | |
|    ```
 | |
| 
 | |
|    Upon completion of this step, you should be able to navigate to the DataHub UI
 | |
|    at [http://localhost:9002](http://localhost:9002) in your browser. You can sign in using `datahub` as both the
 | |
|    username and password.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 5. To ingest the sample metadata, run the following CLI command from your terminal
 | |
|    ```
 | |
|    datahub docker ingest-sample-data
 | |
|    ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| That's it! To start pushing your company's metadata into DataHub, take a look at
 | |
| the [Metadata Ingestion Framework](../metadata-ingestion/README.md).
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Resetting DataHub
 | |
| 
 | |
| To cleanse DataHub of all of it's state (e.g. before ingesting your own), you can use the CLI `nuke` command.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| datahub docker nuke
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Updating DataHub locally
 | |
| 
 | |
| If you have been testing DataHub locally, a new version of DataHub got released and you want to try the new version then you can use below commands. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| datahub docker nuke --keep-data
 | |
| datahub docker quickstart
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| This will keep the data that you have ingested so far in DataHub and start a new quickstart with the latest version of DataHub.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Troubleshooting
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Command not found: datahub
 | |
| 
 | |
| If running the datahub cli produces "command not found" errors inside your terminal, your system may be defaulting to an
 | |
| older version of Python. Try prefixing your `datahub` commands with `python3 -m`:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| python3 -m datahub docker quickstart
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Another possibility is that your system PATH does not include pip's `$HOME/.local/bin` directory.  On linux, you can add this to your `~/.bashrc`:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| if [ -d "$HOME/.local/bin" ] ; then
 | |
|     PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
 | |
| fi
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Miscellaneous Docker issues
 | |
| 
 | |
| There can be misc issues with Docker, like conflicting containers and dangling volumes, that can often be resolved by
 | |
| pruning your Docker state with the following command. Note that this command removes all unused containers, networks,
 | |
| images (both dangling and unreferenced), and optionally, volumes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| docker system prune
 | |
| ```
 |
