JFrog Artifactory Quick Start in 15 Minutes

wordpress1

The following will Install and Configure vagrant over the top of a basic Centos 7.x server (without GUI)

 

CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 (Core)
Software Install = @base

Let us install any prereqs and update server to latest

## Part 0 - Pre-reqs 
yum install java-1.8.0-openjdk -y
java -version
#openjdk version "1.8.0_181"
#OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_181-b13)
#OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.181-b13, mixed mode)

 

Java is needed for JFrog – otherwise it will fail to start. Now let’s get the binary and install

## Part 1 - Install Core Software
# URL to select is https://jfrog.bintray.com/artifactory-rpms/
wget https://jfrog.bintray.com/artifactory-rpms/jfrog-artifactory-oss-6.5.1.rpm
yum localinstall jfrog-artifactory-oss-6.5.1.rpm -y

 

 

Now let’s start the software

## Part 2 - Start Software
systemctl start artifactory.service
systemctl status artifactory.service

# Should now be listening on port 8081
netstat -ntlp | grep 8081
#tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8081 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 13631/java

# Configure firewall
firewall-cmd --add-port=8081/tcp --permanent
firewall-cmd --reload

 

Now the service is running, we need to login and configure via the GUI. This process is effectively logging on the GUI and going through the Wizard (all defaults – only inputs are a password and select a Generic Repository)

Part 3 - Configure Software
# Click any of the images for a larger view

 

We now have a running software – so let’s upload some content

## Part 4 - Upload Content

# create samplepackage.rpm - effectively just a copy of a file we already have
cp jfrog-artifactory-oss-6.5.1.rpm samplepackage.rpm


curl -u admin:admin -T samplepackage.rpm "http://192.168.1.65:8081/artifactory/generic-local/samplepackage.rpm"
#output is below {
#"repo" : "generic-local",
#"path" : "/samplepackage.rpm",
#"created" : "2018-10-19T10:21:13.524+01:00",
#"createdBy" : "admin",
#"downloadUri" : "http://192.168.1.65:8081/artifactory/generic-local/samplepackage.rpm",
#"mimeType" : "application/x-rpm",
#"size" : "100307699",
#"checksums" : {
#"sha1" : "931b804db5fb9279b50f5da687e74ed24bf5a05f",
#"md5" : "1038630aa6dd31283abe4e026f99aee3",
#"sha256" : "b76c236ed5eac237c584edc97ce57046d192c51af347ef0d5db9d9c5358f8445"
#},
#"originalChecksums" : {
#"sha256" : "b76c236ed5eac237c584edc97ce57046d192c51af347ef0d5db9d9c5358f8445"
#},
#"uri" : "http://192.168.1.65:8081/artifactory/generic-local/samplepackage.rpm"
#}

You can identify the values from the GUI too!

Now let’s delete the file locally and download some content

Note you can get the URL from the image above – get the address from the ‘Download’ link

## Part 5 - Download Content
rm -f samplepackage.rpm
ls samplepackage.rpm
#ls: cannot access samplepackage.rpm: No such file or directory
wget http://192.168.1.65:8081/artifactory/generic-local/samplepackage.rpm
