How to Install Facette on Manjaro

Facette is a web-based software for visualizing time series data. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Facette on Manjaro.

Prerequisites

Before proceeding with the installation, you need to ensure that the following prerequisites are met:

• Manjaro Linux installed on your system
• A user account with sudo privileges

Step 1: Install Dependencies

First, we need to install the dependencies required for Facette to run. Open the terminal and run the following command:

sudo pacman -S git mercurial cmake g++ libsqlite3-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libboost-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-regex-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-thread-dev libyaml-cpp-dev libmicrohttpd-dev libpcre3-dev liblz4-dev

This command will install all the necessary packages required to build Facette.

Step 2: Clone Facette Source Code

Next, we will need to clone the Facette source code from the official repository. Run the following command to clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/facette/facette.git

This will clone the Facette source code into a new directory named facette.

Step 3: Build and Install Facette

Now, we need to build and install Facette. Navigate to the facette directory and run the following commands:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. && make && sudo make install

This will build Facette and install it on your system.

Step 4: Start Facette Server

Once installed, we can start the Facette server by running the following command:

facetted

This will start the Facette server and output the URL to access the Facette web interface.

Conclusion

Facette is now installed and running on your Manjaro system. You can access the Facette web interface by navigating to the URL provided by the Facette server. From here, you can easily visualize your time series data using Facette's user-friendly interface.
