Prerequisites

  • x86 64bit CPU (Intel or AMD)
  • Linux OS
  • Docker
  • PostgreSQL Client

Installation

In order run Oxla in no time, you need to have Docker and PostgreSQL client installed on your local machine. To do that, you need to follow their installation guides, that you can find below:

Docker Setup

Once you’re done with installation part, you can open your terminal and execute following command to check if you have installed your Docker instance properly:

docker ps
If it returns “Bad response from Docker Engine”, it means there is an issue with your Docker instance and you need to try re-installing it.

Then you need to start Oxla Docker instance and expose PostgreSQL port:

docker run --rm -it -p 5432:5432 public.ecr.aws/oxla/release:latest

Connecting to Oxla

Once that is done, you can now effectively connect to Oxla by executing the following command:

psql -h localhost
If you encounter an error response as follows: “bash: psql: command not found“, this means that you have not installed PostgreSQL client properly on your machine and you need to try reinstalling it.
