Get Started

Prepare a new node with Linux x86_64 EL compatible OS, then run as a sudo-able user:

Then you will have a pigsty singleton node ready, with Web Services on port and Postgres on port 5432.

Download via Git

You can also download pigsty source with git, don’t forget to checkout a specific version.

  1. git clone https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty;
  2. cd pigsty; git checkout v2.0.2

OS

  • Linux RHEL or other compatible distributions
  • Vendor: RHEL, CentOS, Rocky, AlmaLinux, …
  • Version: el7, el8, el9, and compatible releases
  • Please use fresh new nodes for installation to avoid meaningless issues

Node

  • x86_64 architecture (aarch64 is not officially supported)
  • 1 core & 1 GB RAM (at least 2C/4G is recommended for meta node)
  • nopass ssh access to root or any sudo-able user

Ansible

  • Ansible is required and will be installed during bootstrap procedure
  • You can also manually install it with yum, and epel-release enabled

HINT: Recommended Releases are CentOS 7.9 / RockyLinux 8.6 / RockyLinux 9.0, which are tested and verified.


You can get & extract pigsty source via the following command:

  1. curl -fsSL http://download.pigsty.cc/get | bash

Download Pigsty Source with Specific Version

If you want to download a specific version, use the following URLs:

  1. VERSION=v2.0.2
  2. https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/releases/download/${VERSION}/pigsty-${VERSION}.tgz
  1. curl -L https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/releases/download/v2.0.2/pigsty-v2.0.2.tgz -o ~/pigsty.tgz
  2. curl -L http://download.pigsty.cc/v2.0.2/pigsty-v2.0.2.tgz -o ~/pigsty.tgz # China CDN Mirror

Pigsty downloads rpm packages from the upstream yum repo during installation. Which can be accelerated dramatically by using a local mirror: offline packages. It’s also extremely useful when you have no Internet available.

The script will ask for download the corresponding offline package (--yes|--no) and setup everything up for you. You can also download it manually and put it under /tmp/pkg.tgz for later use.

Download offline packages manually

For example, Pigsty v2.0.2 on EL7.x86_64 will have the following packages:

  1. curl -L https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/releases/download/v2.0.2/pigsty-pkg-v2.0.2.el7.x86_64.tgz -o /tmp/pkg.tgz
  2. curl -L http://download.pigsty.cc/v2.0.2/pigsty-pkg-v2.0.2.el7.x86_64.tgz -o /tmp/pkg.tgz # China CDN Mirror

Not all combinations of OS and architecture are supported yet. Please check the official release page.


bootstrap script will make sure one thing: ansible is ready for using.

It will also download / extract / setup the offline if you choose to do so.

  1. ./boostrap [-p <path>=/tmp/pkg.tgz] # offline pkg path (/tmp/pkg.tgz by default)
  2. [-y|--yes] [-n|--no] # download packages or not? (ask by default)

bootstrap procedure detail

  1. Check preconditions

  2. Check local repo exists ?

    • Y -> create /etc/yum.repos.d/pigsty-local.repo to enable it
    • N -> Download offline package from the Internet?
      • Y -> Download from Github / CDN and extract & enable it
      • N -> Add basic os upstream repo file manually ?
        • N -> leave it to user’s default configuration
  • Now we have an available repo for installing ansible
    • Precedence: local pkg.tgz > downloaded pkg.tgz > upstream > user provide
  1. install boot utils from the available repo

    • el7,8,9: nginx wget sshpass createrepo_c yum-utils
    • el8,9 extra: dnf-utils modulemd-tools python3-jmespath
  2. Check ansible availability.

  2. ## Configure
  3. [configure]($ffb11dc120032ea7.md) will create a [pigsty.yml](https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/blob/master/pigsty.yml) config file according to your environment.

./configure [-n|—non-interactive] [-i|—ip ] [-m|—mode ] [-r|—region ]

  1. ---
  2. ## Install
  3. You can run [install.yml](https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/blob/master/pigsty.yml) to perform a full installation on current node

./install.yml # install everything in one-pass

  1. Its a standard ansible playbook, you can have fine-grained control with ansible options:
  2. - `-l`: limit execution targets
  3. - `-e`: passing extra args
  4. -
  5. Check playbooks for more available functionalities.
  6. > **WARNING: Its very DANGEROUS to run [install.yml](https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/blob/master/install.yml) on existing deployment!**
  7. Installation Output Example

  2. ## Interface
  3. Once installed, youll have 4 module [INFRA]($8515dc6e819753e1.md), [NODE]($135a246ab81b97d6.md), [ETCD]($b1d456437fde9bf4.md) , [PGSQL]($57d9b661508bbbed.md) installed on the current node.
  4. - [INFRA]($8515dc6e819753e1.md): Monitoring infrastructure can be accessed via `http://<ip>:80`
  5. - [PGSQL]($57d9b661508bbbed.md): PostgreSQL cluster can be accessed via default PGURL: `postgres://dbuser_meta:DBUser.Meta@<ip>:5432/meta`
  6. There are several services are exposed by Nginx (configured by [infra\_portal]($0f98c5a580729801.md#infra_portal)):
  7. <table><thead><tr><th>Component</th><th>Port</th><th>Domain</th><th>Comment</th><th>Public Demo</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Nginx</td><td>80</td><td><code>h.pigsty</code></td><td>Web Service Portal, Repo</td><td><a href="http://home.pigsty.cc">home.pigsty.cc</a></td></tr><tr><td>AlertManager</td><td>9093</td><td><code>a.pigsty</code></td><td>Alter Aggregator</td><td><a href="http://a.pigsty.cc">a.pigsty.cc</a></td></tr><tr><td>Grafana</td><td>3000</td><td><code>g.pigsty</code></td><td>Grafana Dashboard Home</td><td><a href="http://demo.pigsty.cc">demo.pigsty.cc</a></td></tr><tr><td>Prometheus</td><td>9090</td><td><code>p.pigsty</code></td><td>Prometheus Web UI</td><td><a href="http://p.pigsty.cc">p.pigsty.cc</a></td></tr></tbody></table>
  8. You can configure public domain names for these infra services or just use local static DNS records & resolver. e.g., write records to `/etc/hosts` and access via DNS.
  9. If [nginx\_sslmode]($0f98c5a580729801.md#nginx_sslmode) is set to `enabled` or `enforced`, you can trust self-signed ca: `files/pki/ca/ca.crt` to use `https` in your browser.

  2. ---
  3. ## More
  4. You can deploy & monitor more clusters with pigsty: add more nodes to `pigsty.yml` and run corresponding playbooks:

bin/node-add pg-test # init 3 nodes of cluster pg-test bin/pgsql-add pg-test # init HA PGSQL Cluster pg-test bin/redis-add redis-ms # init redis cluster redis-ms ```

Check PGSQL, , and REDIS for detail.
