Install MADlib by following the steps in the Installation Guide for MADlib or use the Docker image instructions below.

MADlib source code is organized such that the core logic of a machine learning or statistical module is located in a common location, and the database-port specific code is located in a ports folder.  Since all currently supported databases are based on Postgres, the postgres port contains all the port-specific files, with greenplum and hawq inheriting from it.  Before proceeding with this guide, it is recommended that you familiarize yourself with the MADlib module anatomy.

Docker Image

We provide a Docker image with necessary dependencies required to compile and test MADlib on PostgreSQL 9.6.  You can view the dependency docker file at  ./tool/docker/base/Dockerfile_postgres_9_6. The image is hosted on docker hub at madlib/postgres_9.6:latestLater we will provide a similar Docker image for Greenplum Database.

Some useful commands to use the Docker file:

Code Block
## 1) Pull down the `madlib/postgres_9.6:latest` image from docker hub:
docker pull madlib/postgres_9.6:latest
## 2) Launch a container corresponding to the MADlib image, mounting the source code folder to the container:
docker run -d -it --name madlib -v (path to incubator-madlib directory):/incubator-madlib/ madlib/postgres_9.6
where incubator-madlib is the directory where the MADlib source code resides.
############################################## * WARNING * ##################################################
# Please be aware that when mounting a volume as shown above, any changes you make in the "incubator-madlib" 
# folder inside the Docker container will be reflected on your local disk (and vice versa). This means that
# deleting data in the mounted volume from a Docker container will delete the data from your local disk also.
#############################################################################################################
## 3) When the container is up, connect to it and build MADlib:
docker exec -it madlib bash
mkdir /incubator-madlib/build-docker
cd /incubator-madlib/build-docker
cmake ..
make
make doc
make install
## 4) Install MADlib:
src/bin/madpack -p postgres -c postgres/postgres@localhost:5432/postgres install
## 5) Several other madpack commands can now be run:
# Run install check, on all modules:
src/bin/madpack -p postgres -c postgres/postgres@localhost:5432/postgres install-check
# Run install check, on a specific module, say svm:
src/bin/madpack -p postgres -c postgres/postgres@localhost:5432/postgres install-check -t svm
# Reinstall MADlib:
src/bin/madpack -p postgres -c postgres/postgres@localhost:5432/postgres reinstall
## 6) Kill and remove containers (after exiting the container):
docker kill madlib
docker rm madlib
