Installation

Bootstrap a default version of Amundsen using Docker

The following instructions are for setting up a version of Amundsen using Docker.

  1. Install docker and docker-compose.
  2. Clone this repo and its submodules by running: 
    $ git clone --recursive git@github.com:lyft/amundsen.git
  3. Enter the cloned directory and run: 
    $ docker-compose -f docker-amundsen.yml up
  4. Ingest dummy data into Neo4j by doing the following:
    • Change directory to the amundsendatabuilder submodule.
    • Run the following commands in the amundsendatabuilder upstream directory:
     $ python3 -m venv venv
 $ source venv/bin/activate  
 $ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
 $ python3 setup.py install
 $ python3 example/scripts/sample_data_loader.py
  5. View UI at http://localhost:5000 and try to search test, it should return some result.

Verify setup

  1. You can verify dummy data has been ingested into Neo4j by by visiting http://localhost:7474/browser/ and run MATCH (n:Table) RETURN n LIMIT 25 in the query box. You should see two tables:
    1. hive.test_schema.test_table1
    2. dynamo.test_schema.test_table2
  2. You can verify the data has been loaded into the metadataservice by visiting:
    1. http://localhost:5000/table_detail/gold/hive/test_schema/test_table1
    2. http://localhost:5000/table_detail/gold/dynamo/test_schema/test_table2

Troubleshooting

  1. If the docker container doesn't have enough heap memory for Elastic Search, es_amundsen will fail during docker-compose.
    1. docker-compose error: es_amundsen | [1]: max virtual memory areas vm.max_map_count [65530] is too low, increase to at least [262144]
    2. Increase the heap memory detailed instructions here
      1. Edit /etc/sysctl.conf
      2. Make entry vm.max_map_count=262144. Save and exit.
      3. Reload settings $ sysctl -p
      4. Restart docker-compose
