Get the code, build and run

Prerequisites

Check the Install toolchain guide for supported OS, GLIBC version requirement, and how to install the C++ toolchain.

Clone the source code to your development machine:

git clone https://github.com/oceanbase/oceanbase.git

Build OceanBase from the source code in debug mode or release mode:

bash build.sh debug --init --make

bash build.sh release --init --make

Now that you built the observer binary, you can deploy an OceanBase instance with the obd.sh utility:

./tools/deploy/obd.sh prepare -p /tmp/obtest
./tools/deploy/obd.sh deploy -c ./tools/deploy/single.yaml

This starts the OceanBase server listening on port 10000.

You can use the official MySQL client to connect to OceanBase:

mysql -uroot -h127.0.0.1 -P10000

Alternatively, you can use the obclient to connect to OceanBase:

./deps/3rd/u01/obclient/bin/obclient -h127.0.0.1 -P10000 -uroot -Doceanbase -A

You can run the following command to shut down the server and clean up the deployment, which prevents disk consuming:

./tools/deploy/obd.sh destroy --rm -n single
