Install RackHD from src code of specific version :

 To clone and checkout to sprint release code( the version naming is like 1.0.0/1.1.0...etc). you can use the helper script or follow below steps.

Tips: you can find the "tag names"(like 1.1.0) from github , example:  https://github.com/RackHD/on-core/releases 

above command line will clone and build local code , according to git tag "release/1.1.0". then using PM2 to start services.

the tag name is actually a git-tag . you can change the tag name from version tagging to other tag.

OR

if you would like to do it by yourselves , you can follow:

1. clone all RackHD repos, then go into each on them:

2.  link the on-core/on-tasks repo, to other repo's node_modules

3. Create static directory and download static images for PXE boots

   you can follow steps in Line 51 - Line 77 of install_src.sh 

4. using PM2 to start services

create a pm2.yml like below, the ```cwd``` field should locate the where the on-xxx code lives.

then run  $sudo pm2 start pm2.yml

5. Vagrant box (legacy)

Before using vagrant we suggest to read vagrant docs first.

If you will use virtualbox/vagrant box under Windows, here's a blog article for your reference: How to set up RackHD demo under Windows (vagrant box)

sprint release

• Get RackHD vagrant box
•  Note : vagrant version should be at least >= 1.8.5, to support `--box-version` parameter. ( check by ```vagrant -v ```)

This code snippet will pull the rackhd vagrant box of version 1.1.0. You can read the generated Vagrantfile for more configuration information.

below code use 1.1.0 version as an example:

•  Important Tips

For running RackHD service successfully, you need to up a second netcard.

For change configuration of RackHD, you need to mount local config into vagrant.

For connecting RackHD out of box, you need to forward internal ports to outside .

Please see our example Vagrantfile for details. ( it's recommended to customized the vagrant file based on this example )

Latest nightly build

Format of nightly build version is 0.mm.dd. For example, you can get the nightly build on January 13 with

If you have own Vagrantfile, just modify the version number in it to 0.mm.dd, and then you can up the vagrant box of related nightly build.

ATTENTION: nightly builds will only be kept for two weeks.
