# Installation
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
Grafana is easily installed via a Debian/Ubuntu package (.deb), via Redhat/Centos package (.rpm) or manually via
|
|
|
a tar that contains all required files and binaries. If you can't find a package or binary for your platform you might be able
|
|
|
to build one your self, read [build from source](../project/building_from_source) instructions for more information.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-## Ubuntu & Debian
|
|
|
-Start by [downloading](http://grafana.org/download) the latest `.deb` package.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-To install the package
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- $ sudo apt-get install -y adduser libfontconfig
|
|
|
- $ sudo dpkg -i grafana_latest_amd64.deb
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-## Redhat & Centos
|
|
|
-Start by [downloading](http://grafana.org/download) the latest `.rpm` package.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- $ sudo yum install initscripts fontconfig
|
|
|
- $ sudo rpm -Uvh grafana-latest-1.x86_64.rpm
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-On Redhat/RHEL 5.10 you need to add the grafana user before executing the above.
|
|
|
-Execute this to add a grafana user:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- sudo useradd -r grafana
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-### Package details
|
|
|
-The `.deb` and the `rpm` package install will do the following
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-- Install binary to `/usr/sbin/grafana-server`
|
|
|
-- Init.d script to `/etc/init.d/grafana-server`
|
|
|
-- Default file (environment vars) to `/etc/default/grafana-server` (deb package) or `/etc/sysconfig/grafana-server` (for the rpm package)
|
|
|
-- Configuration file to `/etc/grafana/grafana.ini`
|
|
|
-- Systemd service (if systemd is available) name `grafana-server.service`
|
|
|
-- The default configuration specifies log file at `/var/log/grafana/grafana.log`
|
|
|
-- The default configuration specifies sqlite3 db at `/var/lib/grafana/grafana.db`
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-### Start the server (init.d service)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-- Start grafana by `sudo service grafana-server start`
|
|
|
-- This will start the grafana-server process as the `grafana` user (created during package install)
|
|
|
-- Default http port is `3000`, and default user is admin/admin

-## Manual install from binary tar file
|
|
|
-Start by [downloading](http://grafana.org/download/builds) the latest `.tar.gz` file and extract it.
|
|
|
-This will extract into a folder named after the version you downloaded. This folder contains all files required to run grafana.
|
|
|
-There are no init scripts or install scripts in this package.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-To configure grafana add a config file named `custom.ini` to the `conf` folder and override any of the settings defined in
|
|
|
-`conf/defaults.ini`. Start grafana by excecuting `./grafana web`. The grafana binary needs the working directory
|
|
|
-to be the root install dir (where the binary is and the public folder is located).

There are no dependencies with the default configuration. You can switch from a sqlite3 database to mysql or postgres but

that is optional. For small to medium setups sqlite3 should suffice.

-## Install from offical docker image
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Grafana has an offical docker container.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- $ docker run -i -p 3000:3000 grafana/grafana
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-All grafana configuration settings can be defined using ENVIRONMENT variables, this is especially useful when using the
|
|
|
-above container.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-### Docker volumes & ENV config
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The docker container exposes two volumes, the sqlite3 database in the folder `/opt/grafana/data` and
|
|
|
-configuration files in the `/opt/grafana/conf` folder. You can map these volumes to host folders when you start the container:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- $ docker run -d -p 3000:3000 \
|
|
|
- -v /var/grafana/data:/opt/grafana/data \
|
|
|
- -e "GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD=secret \
|
|
|
- grafana/grafana:develop
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-In the above example I map the data folder and set a config option via an `ENV` variable.
|
|
|

|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
|
|
The backend web server has a number of configuration options. Go the [Configuration](configuration) page for details
|
|
|
on all those options.
