Installing HOTMapper and dependencies

Updated with v1.1.

In this section we'll look at how to get MonetDB working with HOTMapper.

Important:

If you are using the MonetDB Apr2019 (11.33.3) version please update to Apr2019-SP1(11.33.11).

Getting HOTMapper

To get the lastest version of HOTMapper simple clone the git repository.

git clone git@gitlab.c3sl.ufpr.br:tools/hotmapper.git

Getting MonetDB

You can get your MonetDB installation following their instructions.

• Fedora users
• Ubuntu & Debian Users
• RHEL & CentOS Users

Be sure to create and start your farm, if you didn't already, using:

$ monetdbd create /path/to/my-dbfarm
$ monetdbd start /path/to/my-dbfarm

If you didn't set a systemctl command for your farm remember to start it every time you reboot your OS.

To create a new database, and remove it from maintenance mode(to avoid a very high memory usage):

$ monetdb create hotmapper-demo
$ monetdb release hotmapper-demo

Getting HOTMapper dependencies

Let's create a new virtual environment and install the requirements.

Be sure that you have installed pip3 and python 3.5+.

Install python3-venv, if you don't have it, using the command bellow.

$ sudo apt install python3-venv     # Ubuntu, mint and debian.
$ sudo dnf install python3-venv     # Fedora.

Inside the HOTMapper folder execute the following commands:

$ python3 -m venv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
