Build and install Ambari by dev-support

Dev support is used to quickly develop and test ambari, which runs on the docker containers.

Step 1: Install build tools: Git、Docker

The scripts require docker to be installed, since the compile process will run in a docker container and Ambari cluster also deploys on containers.

RHEL (CentOS 7) :

yum install -y git docker

Step 2: Download Ambari source

git clone https://github.com/apache/ambari.git

Step 3: Enter workspace

RHEL (CentOS 7) :

cd ambari/dev-support/docker/centos7/

Step 4: Build develop basic image

Run the setup command, you will get ambari/develop:trunk-centos-7 image. It has the enviroment needed to compile Ambari and run servers such as Ambari Server, Ambari Agent, Mysql, etc.

RHEL (CentOS 7) :

./build-image.sh

Step 5: Build Ambari source & create Ambari cluster

• The first compilation will take about 1 hour to download resources, and the next compilation will directly use the maven cache.
• Ambari UI、Ambari Server Debug Port、MariaDB Server are also exposed to local ports: 8080、5005、3306.
• Docker host names are: ambari-server、ambari-agent-01、ambari-agent-02.
• Access admin page via http://localhost:8080 on your web browser. Log in with username admin and password admin.
• Extra configurations are in build-containers.sh last few lines, eg. Kerberos Configuration、Hive DB Configuration.

RHEL (CentOS 7) :

./build-containers.sh

Step 6: Re-build Ambari Server

Re-compile Ambari without re-create and deploy clusters.

RHEL (CentOS 7) :

./build-ambari.sh

Step 7: Redistribution stack

Re-distribute stack scripts without re-create clusters.

RHEL (CentOS 7) :

./distribute-scripts.sh

Step 8: Clean Ambari cluster

Clean up the containers of Ambari cluster when you are done developing or testing.

RHEL (CentOS 7) :

./clear-containers.sh

Step 9: Clean up the build environment

Note : This operation will completely delete maven cache.

RHEL (CentOS 7) :

docker rm -f ambari-rpm-build
