## Installation Guides

Before you begin, make sure that you have Milvus installed on either [Zilliz Cloud](https://cloud.zilliz.com/signup) or [your own server](https://milvus.io/docs/install_standalone-docker.md).

### Compatibility

| Milvus Version | Recommended Attu Version |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 2.4.x | [v2.4.4](https://github.com/zilliztech/attu/releases/tag/v2.4.4) |
| 2.3.x | [v2.3.5](https://github.com/zilliztech/attu/releases/tag/v2.3.5) |
| 2.2.x | [v2.2.8](https://github.com/zilliztech/attu/releases/tag/v2.2.8) |
| 2.1.x | [v2.2.2](https://github.com/zilliztech/attu/releases/tag/v2.2.2) |

### Running Attu from Docker

Here are the steps to start a container for running Attu:

```code
docker run -p 8000:3000 -e MILVUS_URL={milvus server IP}:19530 zilliz/attu:v2.4
```

Make sure that the Attu container can access the Milvus IP address. After starting the container, open your web browser and enter `http://{ Attu IP }:8000` to view the Attu GUI.

#### Optional Environment Variables for Running Attu Docker

| Parameter | Example | Required | Description |
| :--------------- | :------------------- | :------: | --------------------------------------- |
| MILVUS_URL | 192.168.0.1:19530 | false | Optional, Milvus server URL |
| ATTU_LOG_LEVEL | info | false | Optional, sets the log level for Attu |
| ROOT_CERT_PATH | /path/to/root/cert | false | Optional, path to the root certificate |
| PRIVATE_KEY_PATH | /path/to/private/key | false | Optional, path to the private key |
| CERT_CHAIN_PATH | /path/to/cert/chain | false | Optional, path to the certificate chain |
| SERVER_NAME | your_server_name | false | Optional, name of your server |
| SERVER_PORT | Server listen port | false | Optional, 3000 by default if unset |

> Please note that the `MILVUS_URL` should be an address that the Attu Docker container can access. Therefore, "127.0.0.1" or "localhost" will not work.

To run the Docker container with these environment variables, use the following command:

#### Attu SSL Example

```bash
docker run -p 8000:3000 \
-v /your-tls-file-path:/app/tls \
-e ATTU_LOG_LEVEL=info \
-e ROOT_CERT_PATH=/app/tls/ca.pem \
-e PRIVATE_KEY_PATH=/app/tls/client.key \
-e CERT_CHAIN_PATH=/app/tls/client.pem \
-e SERVER_NAME=your_server_name \
zilliz/attu:dev
```

#### Custom Server Port Example

_This command lets you run the docker container with host networking, specifying a custom port for
the server to listen on_

```bash
docker run --network host \
-v /your-tls-file-path:/app/tls \
-e ATTU_LOG_LEVEL=info \
-e SERVER_NAME=your_server_name \
-e SERVER_PORT=8080 \
zilliz/attu:dev
```

### Running Attu within Kubernetes

Before you begin, make sure that you have Milvus installed and running within your [K8's Cluster](https://milvus.io/docs/install_cluster-milvusoperator.md). Note that Attu only supports Milvus 2.x.

Here are the steps to start a container for running Attu:

```code
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zilliztech/attu/main/attu-k8s-deploy.yaml
```

Make sure that the Attu pod can access the Milvus service. In the example provided this connects directly to `my-release-milvus:19530`. Change this based on the Milvus service name. A more flexible way to achieve this would be to introduce a `ConfigMap`. See this [example]("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zilliztech/attu/main/examples/attu-k8s-deploy-ConfigMap.yaml") for details.
