Kyrix Local Debugging

For expert users only - requires local manual installation

Note: this is the setup for local debugging for the nba example, but it should generalize to any kyrix visualization ideally

1. initialize/start the db using normal postgres method --> https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/install-short.html

2. In local pg instance shell, run:

   • CREATE USER kyrix WITH SUPERUSER PASSWORD 'kyrix_password';
   • CREATE DATABASE kyrix OWNER kyrix;
   • CREATE DATABASE nba OWNER kyrix;

3. change reload script & run

   • e.g. "./compiler/examples/nba/reload-nba.sh"
   • add PGCONN set to localhost, etc
   • run manually to build source data tables

4. run backend using maven

   • compile: mvn -B -Dorg.slf4j.simpleLogger.log.org.apache.maven.cli.transfer.Slf4jMavenTransferListener=warn compile | tee mvn-compile.out >/dev/null 2>&1

   • start backend: mvn -Dorg.slf4j.simpleLogger.log.org.apache.maven.cli.transfer.Slf4jMavenTransferListener=warn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="main.Main"

5. send project definition via node if starting app for first time, run node nba.js otherwise, to avoid recompute, run: node nba.js -s

   • "-s" option makes backend server not recompute data from source or rebuild indexes
