h1. Installing a Development Arvados Instance Arvados is primarily intended as a system to be run on large server clusters. For developers, we have provided a process to build and deploy the Arvados system in "Docker containers":https://www.docker.io/ on a single machine. # Download the Arvados source and switch to the appropriate branch. ## @git clone git://git.curoverse.com/arvados.git@ ## @cd arvados/docker@ ## @git checkout 2221-complete-docker@ # *Install the Arvados servers in Docker containers.* The full process of configuring and building a Docker instance of Arvados is documented in the "docker/README.md":https://github.com/curoverse/arvados/blob/master/docker/README.md file in the source distribution. # *Install the client SDKs.* After following those instructions, install the client libraries on your workstation as well. well: ## @./install_sdk.sh@ should install all of the necessary tools. ## If it does not work for you, try installing these by hand: ### *RVM* -- if you do not already have RVM installed on your workstation, install it now. #### ### @sudo apt-get install curl libcurl3 libcurl3-gnutls libcurl4-openssl-dev python-pip@ #### ### @curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable@ #### ### @source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm@ #### ### @rvm install 2.1.0@ ### ## Install the arvados-cli gem: #### ### @gem install arvados-cli@ #### ### @sudo pip install --upgrade httplib2@ Once you have installed the servers and started them with @arvdock start@, and installed the client libraries, you should be able to work through the "user tutorials":http://doc.arvados.org/user/ to upload data into Arvados and run simple Crunch jobs in debug mode.
