Before You Start 

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
  • You must have WSL enabled (wsl --install) and a Linux distribution installed; if Linux does not boot in your WSL terminal after downloading from the Microsoft store, see the manual installation guide.

Manual Step Summary:

  1. Open a Powershell terminal.
  2. Run each of the following:
dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart

dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /all /norestart
  1. Download the latest WSL2 Linux Kernel for x64 machines.
  2. Run each of the following:
wsl --set-default-version 2

wsl --install -d Ubuntu
  1. Restart your machine.
  2. Start a WSL terminal and set up your first Ubuntu user.
  3. Update Ubuntu.
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade -y
  1. Install Homebrew in Ubuntu so you can complete the rest of this guide:
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

All installation steps after 1. Install Docker Desktop must be run through the WSL terminal (Ubuntu) and not in Powershell.

You are now ready to continue to Step 1.

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

1. Install Docker Desktop

  1. Install Docker Desktop for your machine.
  2. Navigate to Settings for Mac, Windows, or Linux.
  3. Select Apply & Restart.

2. Install Pachctl CLI 

brew tap pachyderm/tap && brew install pachyderm/tap/pachctl@2.10  
curl -o /tmp/pachctl.deb -L https://github.com/pachyderm/pachyderm/releases/download/v2.10.0/pachctl_2.10.0_amd64.deb && sudo dpkg -i /tmp/pachctl.deb

3. Install & Configure Helm

  1. Install Helm:
brew install helm
  1. Add the Pachyderm repo to Helm:
helm repo add pachyderm https://helm.pachyderm.com  
helm repo update
  1. Install Pachyderm:
helm install pachyderm pachyderm/pachyderm --set deployTarget=LOCAL --set proxy.enabled=true --set proxy.service.type=LoadBalancer

Are you using an Enterprise trial key? If so, you can set up Enterprise Pachyderm locally by storing your trial key in a license.txt file and passing it into the following Helm command:

helm install pachyderm pachyderm/pachyderm --set deployTarget=LOCAL --set proxy.enabled=true --set proxy.service.type=LoadBalancer --set pachd.enterpriseLicenseKey=$(cat license.txt) --set ingress.host=localhost

A mock user is created by default to get you started, with the username: admin and password: password.

This may take several minutes to complete.

4. Verify Installation

  1. In a new terminal, run the following command to check the status of your pods:
kubectl get pods
NAME                                           READY   STATUS      RESTARTS   AGE
pod/console-5b67678df6-s4d8c                   1/1     Running     0          2m8s
pod/etcd-0                                     1/1     Running     0          2m8s
pod/pachd-c5848b5c7-zwb8p                      1/1     Running     0          2m8s
pod/pg-bouncer-7b855cb797-jqqpx                1/1     Running     0          2m8s
pod/postgres-0                                 1/1     Running     0          2m8s
  1. Re-run this command after a few minutes if pachd is not ready.

5. Connect to Cluster 

pachctl connect http://localhost:80
Note
If the connection commands did not work together, run each separately.

Optionally open your browser and navigate to the Console UI.

Tip

You can check your Pachyderm version and connection to pachd at any time with the following command:

pachctl version
COMPONENT           VERSION  

pachctl             2.10.0  
pachd               2.10.0
