Quick Start

Prerequisites

To start working with the Ingestr Framework, you will need the following:

• Java 11/ Open JDK 11

• IDE for development (e.g. Intellij or Eclipse)

• Maven (optional)

• Ingestr CLI

Ingestr CLI

The Ingestr CLI is a Command Line Interface tool that simplifies the creation, building and deploying of loaders using the Ingestr Framework

Download/Install

sudo curl -L "https://ingestr.io/releases/download/ingestr-cli/latest" -o /usr/local/bin/ingestr

Setting Up For Local Development

The following steps will get you ready for local development of your new Loader

1. ingestr init - This will create a new loader underneath your current working directory

2. ingestr run - This will run the loader on your local machine for you to test

After the loader is up and running you should be able to browse to http://localhost:8080 and see the local dashboard.

At this point, you should have a new Loader ready to run but you will need to open it up in your favourite IDE to give it the logic your loader needs.
