You can install Nebula Graph by downloading the tar.gz file.

Installation steps¶

1. Download the Nebula Graph tar.gz file using the following address.

   Before downloading, you need to replace <release_version> with the version you want to download.

   //Centos 7
   https://oss-cdn.nebula-graph.com.cn/package/<release_version>/nebula-graph-<release_version>.el7.x86_64.tar.gz

   //Centos 8
   https://oss-cdn.nebula-graph.com.cn/package/<release_version>/nebula-graph-<release_version>.el8.x86_64.tar.gz

   For example, to download the Nebula Graph v2.6.0 tar.gz file for CentOS 7.5, run the following command:

   wget https://oss-cdn.nebula-graph.com.cn/package/2.6.0/nebula-graph-2.6.0.el7.x86_64.tar.gz
   

2. Decompress the tar.gz file to the Nebula Graph installation directory.

   tar -xvzf <tar.gz_file_name> -C <install_path>
   

   • tar.gz_file_name specifies the name of the tar.gz file.
   • install_path specifies the installation path.

   For example:

   tar -xvzf nebula-graph-2.6.0.el7.x86_64.tar.gz -C /home/joe/nebula/install
   

3. Modify the name of the configuration file.

   Enter the decompressed directory, rename the files nebula-graphd.conf.default, nebula-metad.conf.default, and nebula-storaged.conf.default in the subdirectory etc, and delete .default to apply the default configuration of Nebula Graph. To modify the configuration, see Configurations.

So far, you have installed Nebula Graph successfully.
