If you are here, you already know that Apache Ranger is becoming a an universal Authorization Framework for most of the data platforms in the CLOUD.  To make it easier for data/security administrators new Ranger users to try the Apache Ranger in action, we have created a docker based setup process that will take few steps to make the Apache Ranger running on your system (in few mins).

Here are the pre-requisite requisites to run Apache Ranger on your system: 

• You must have a latest version of Docker and Docker-Compose installed on your system
• You should be able to run BASH (shell) script from your system

With that these simple requirements, you can start the setup by downloading the latest version of Apache Ranger using the following command:

mkdir -p ${HOME}/git
cd ${HOME}/git
git clone https://github.com/apache/ranger.git
cd ranger
# set the Current Folder as RANGER HOME
export RANGER_HOME=`pwd`
# Enable only necessary services to be run along with CORE ranger services
export ENABLED_RANGER_SERVICES="tagsync,hadoop,hbase,kafka,hive,knox,kms" 
# Execute this command to bring the services up (after successful build if it is not already build)
./ranger_in_docker up

...

# Go to the directory where we downloaded the Apache Ranger
cd ${RANGER_HOME}/git/ranger
# Execute this command to bring services down 
./ranger_in_docker down

...
