Installation

SiriDB Prompt can be compiled from source or, for most systems, you can simply download a pre-compiled binary.

Pre-compiled

Go to https://github.com/SiriDB/siridb-prompt/releases/latest and download the binary for your system. In this documentation we refer to the binary as siridb-prompt. On Linux/OSX it might be required to set the execution flag:

$ chmod +x siridb-prompt_X.Y.Z_OS_ARCH.bin

You might want to copy the binary to /usr/local/bin and create a symlink like this:

$ sudo cp siridb-prompt_X.Y.Z_OS_ARCH.bin /usr/local/bin/
$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/siridb-prompt_X.Y.Z_OS_ARCH.bin /usr/local/bin/siridb-prompt

Note: replace X.Y.Z_OS_ARCH with your binary, for example 2.0.0_linux_amd64

Compile from source

Before compiling from source make sure go and git are installed and your $GOPATH is set.

Clone the project using git. (we assume git is installed)

git clone https://github.com/SiriDB/siridb-prompt

Install the required go packages

$ go get -d

Build SiriDB Prompt

$ go build -o siridb-prompt

Connect via SSH

Build SSH tunnel by running the following command in the terminal window:

$ ssh login@server -L 9000:127.0.0.1:9000 -N

You will get response asking you to enter your SSH password

login@server password:

Now when the tunnel is built stop the previous command and set it into background to be able to initiate other commands. press Ctrl+Z to stop the command and you should get response:

[1]+ Stopped        ssh login@server -L 9000:127.0.0.1:9000 -N

to set it in background, type bg and you should get response:

[1]+ ssh login@server -L 9000:127.0.0.1:9000 -N &

Connect to SiriDB as if it is running on your local system, for example by running the following command in the terminal window:

$ siridb-prompt -d database -u user -s localhost:9000

That's it! You are in.

When finished you can close your SSH tunnel:

get it into foreground: press fg and you will get the response:

ssh login@server -L 9000:127.0.0.1:9000 -N

press Ctrl+C to stop it.
