Deploy a SingleStoreDB cluster locally.

Usage

Deploy a SingleStoreDB cluster locally

sdb-deploy cluster-in-a-box conveniently runs various sdb-toolbox-config,
sdb-deploy, and sdb-admin commands as a single command to produce a simple
database configuration (a master aggregator and a leaf node) that can be connected
to and queried. This SingleStoreDB "cluster" is meant for testing purposes. To set up a
cluster on more than one host, see 'sdb-deploy setup-cluster'. By default, 'cluster-in-a-box'
deploys a leaf node per NUMA node if NUMA is available on the host.

Example usages:

    sdb-deploy cluster-in-a-box --license AAAAAAa/Aaa/AA== --password PASSW0RD

This will install the latest version of singlestoredb-server on the host and deploy a master aggregator and a leaf node on localhost.
A valid license is required. If you set a MEMSQL_LICENSE environment variable, you can omit the --license flag.

By default, the master aggregator node listens on the first free port (n) in the range 3306 to 3326, whereas the leaf node listens on the first free port in the range n+1 to n+200.
Each node will bind its socket to 127.0.0.1, which will prevent them from being accessible from other hosts.
You may change these settings with the flags '--master-port', '--leaf-port', and '--bind-address'.
You may specify '--bind-address 0.0.0.0' to connect to the cluster from other hosts.

On hosts with NUMA configuration, you can set ports for leaf nodes using the '--leaf-port' flag. 
If '--leaf-port' is not specified, 'cluster-in-a-box' will deploy m leaf nodes that will listen on the first free ports available in the range n+1 to n+200, where 'm' represents the number of NUMA nodes available and 'n' represents the master aggregator node port.
To disable optimizations, use the '--no-optimize' flag. This flag also disables NUMA optimization, which is enabled by default.

The password for the database root user can be set either with the '--password' flag, or in the MEMSQL_PASSWORD environment variable.
If neither is specified, you will be prompted to enter the password.

If you prefer to install a version other than the latest release, you may specify the desired version, or the path to a singlestoredb-server package:

    sdb-deploy cluster-in-a-box --license AAAAAAa/Aaa/AA== --version 6.7.0 --password PASSW0RD
    sdb-deploy cluster-in-a-box --license AAAAAAa/Aaa/AA== --version 7.1 --password PASSW0RD --force-package-format deb

    sdb-deploy cluster-in-a-box --license AAAAAAa/Aaa/AA== --file-path path/to/singlestoredb-server.deb --password PASSW0RD
    sdb-deploy cluster-in-a-box --license AAAAAAa/Aaa/AA== --file-path path/to/singlestoredb-server.rpm --password PASSW0RD

    sdb-deploy cluster-in-a-box --license AAAAAAa/Aaa/AA== --version 6.7.0 --password PASSW0RD --bind-address 0.0.0.0
	
    sdb-deploy cluster-in-a-box --license AAAAAAa/Aaa/AA== --password PASSW0RD --master-port 3333 --leaf-port 1234
	
    # Deploy the cluster on a host with 4 NUMA nodes
    sdb-deploy cluster-in-a-box --license AAAAAAa/Aaa/AA== --password PASSW0RD --master-port 3333 --leaf-port 4005,4006,4007,4008

Usage:
  sdb-deploy cluster-in-a-box [flags]

Flags:
      --bind-address IP                        Set the bind address for the master aggregator and the leaf nodes.
                                               The default configuration makes the cluster unavailable outside localhost.
                                               Set "--bind-address 0.0.0.0" to access nodes from a different IP (default 127.0.0.1)
      --file-path ABSOLUTE_PATH                The path to the singlestoredb-server package to install
      --force-package-format {deb, rpm, tar}   Specify 'deb', 'rpm', or 'tar' package format. Required if you have both dpkg and rpm package managers found on the host
  -h, --help                                   Help for cluster-in-a-box
      --leaf-port PORTSLICE                    Have the leaf nodes listen on the specified ports (default [])

      --master-port PORT                       Have the master aggregator node listen on the specified port
      --no-optimize                            Disable optimizations, including NUMA optimization
      --password STRING                        The password for the database root user on each node. If a password is specified on the command line, it must not contain an unescaped '$' character as it will be replaced by the shell.
                                               If a password is not specified on the command line, Toolbox will attempt to read the password from the ‘MEMSQL_PASSWORD’ environment variable.
                                               If this variable is present but does not contain a value, or if the variable does not exist, Toolbox will prompt for a password
      --preinstalled-path ABSOLUTE_PATH        The path to the folder (must be of the form 'singlestoredb-server-<version>*' or 'memsql-server-<version>*') that contains the singlestoredb-server binaries. Depending on the mode of cluster deployment, the folder contains either the unpacked tarball file or the installed package file (Debian or RPM) of singlestoredb-server. (ADVANCED)
      --skip-auto-config                       Skip automatic OS configuration

      --ssh-user-known-hosts-file FILE_PATH   Path to the user known_hosts file for SSH connections. If not set, /dev/null will be used
      --state-file FILE_PATH                  Toolbox state file path
  -v, --verbosity count                       Increase logging verbosity: valid values are 1, 2, 3. Usage -v=count or --verbosity=count
  -y, --yes                                   Enable non-interactive mode and assume the user would like to move forward with the proposed actions by default

Remarks

If you already have the local host machine registered through sdb-toolbox-config, you will have to unregister the host machine before you can run this command.

This command is interactive unless you use either the --yes or --json flags to override interactive behavior.

Output

The following example uses the cluster-in-a-box command to install a master aggregator and a leaf node on the local host machine.
