# OpenLink Virtuoso Open Source Edition (SNAP)
Copyright (c) 2018 OpenLink Software
## Intro
This is an **experimental** release of an OpenLink Virtuoso Open Source Edition 7.2.x snap package.
**DISCLAIMER**:
At this time this package should be used for testing only and is not recommended in production or mission critical environments.
Virtuoso is a scalable cross-platform server that combines Relational, Graph, and Document Data Management with Web Application Server and Web Services Platform functionality.
As stated on the [SnapCraft website](http://snapcraft.io):
```
Snaps are containerised software packages that are simple to create and install.
They auto-update and are safe to run. And because they bundle their dependencies,
they work on all major Linux systems without modification.
```
Distributions that support snap packages currently include recent versions of Ubuntu, Debian, Mint, Gentoo, Arch, Fedora and OpenSuse.
## Installing the snap package on your local systems
### Building the snap package from source
To build snap packages you first need to install a number of development tools including a C compiler and a number of development libraries.
The following instructions will work on most recent Debian and Ubuntu installations:
```shell
# Install the snap daemon and the snapcraft toolkit
$ sudo apt install snapd snapcraft
# Install the basic development tools
$ sudo apt install build-essential equivs devscripts \
autoconf automake bison flex gawk git gperf libtool \
git make tar gzip bzip2 m4 vim openssl
# Install development libraries
$ sudo apt install libbz2-dev libldap2-dev libssl-dev liblzma-dev libz-dev libedit-dev
```
Installing a development environment on other Linux distributions follows a similar pattern.
To build this snap package in your own environment you can run the following commands:
```shell
# Clone this project to your local system
$ git clone https://github.com/openlink/virtuoso-opensource-snap
$ cd virtuoso-opensource-snap
# The following command will download the latest VOS sources from github,
# run configure, make, make install and bundle the resulting into a snap image
# Depending on your machine, this may take some time
$ make
# If successful you should end up with
$ ls -lh *.snap
-rw-r--r-- 1 pkleef development 44068864 Apr 30 20:51 virtuoso-opensource_7.2.5-dev_amd64.snap
# Install the snap image on your computer
$ sudo snap install --devmode virtuoso-opensource_7.2.5-dev_amd64.snap
```
### Downloading the snap package from OpenLink Software
If you rather just experiment with a pre-build version you can run the following commands:
```shell
# Install the snap daemon
$ sudo apt install snapd
# Download a copy of the snap image build by OpenLink Software
$ cd /tmp
$ wget ftp://devhub.openlinksw.com/pub/Support/snap/virtuoso-opensource_7.2.5-dev_amd64.snap
# Install the snap image on your computer
$ sudo snap install --devmode virtuoso-opensource_7.2.5-dev_amd64.snap
```
### Downloading the snap package from the snap repository
**TODO**: OpenLink Software will create a registration for this package and provide instructions to download the package and install it.
### Checking if the snap package is installed
The following command can be used to see if the package is installed:
```shell
$ snap list
Name Version Rev Tracking Developer Notes
core 16-2.32.5 4486 stable canonical core
virtuoso-opensource 7.2.5-dev x1 - - devmode
```
### Uninstalling the snap package from your local systems
The following command can be used to remove the package from your system:
```shell
$ sudo snap remove virtuoso-opensource
```
**IMPORTANT**: Removing the snap package also removes the virtuoso database and all other created content.
## How to create and start a new virtuoso
The snap package installs a virtuoso-opensource command which is a wrapper script to simplify creating a new database instance, starting and stopping it etc.
To get a list of all the commands, simply run:
```shell
$ virtuoso-opensource help
OpenLink Virtuoso Open Source Edition (SNAP)
Version: 7.2.5-dev/amd64/x1
Copyright (C) 1009-2018 OpenLink Software
Usage:
virtuoso-opensource CMD args
CMD list:
help - This text
version - Show version of current snap package
create [DB] - Create database DB
start [DB] - Start database DB
stop [DB] - Stop database DB
config [DB] - Show path to virtuoso.ini for database DB
logfile [DB] - Show path to virtuoso.log for database DB
```
The script can be run by any user on the system to create a personal database under their own home directory:
```
/home/loginname/snap/virtuoso-opensource/common
```
or using sudo to create a database in the system wide directory:
```
/var/snap/virtuoso-opensource/common
```
Note that virtuoso can run multiple database instances simultaneous on the same platform as long as each installation uses unique port numbers.
### Creating a new virtuoso database
To create a new Virtuoso database you can run the following command:
```shell
$ virtuoso-opensource create testdb

For security reasons each new database is created with a unique random password for the dba and dav accounts. Please make a note of this password before continuing.
Next we start the database:
```shell
$ virtuoso-opensource start testdb
```
Connect to the new instance using the isql tool, login using the password recorded above and change the dba password:
```shell
$ virtuoso-opensource isql testdb
