Install NebulaGraph with the tar.gz file

You can install NebulaGraph by downloading the tar.gz file.

Note

NebulaGraph provides installing with the tar.gz file starting from version 2.6.0.

Installation steps

  1. NebulaGraph 3.1.3 has no server tar.gz packages on GitHub Releases. The previous OSS download links are no longer available. To install a published version, choose a version with packages on that page.

  2. Decompress the tar.gz file to the NebulaGraph 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-3.1.3.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 NebulaGraph. To modify the configuration, see Configurations.

So far, you have installed NebulaGraph successfully.
