hraftery / Install_QuestDB_On_FreeBSD.md

Instructions on not just downloading and running QuestDB on FreeBSD, but putting the requirements elements in a sensible location and configuring it to run on boot.

There does not seem to be any guidance available for installing QuestDB on FreeBSD. An enquiry on Slack created helpful suggestions, but nothing directly actionable.

For posteriority I decided to create my own installer. This seems to do the trick, and is modelling on the Homebrew configuration, for lack of a better idea.

As root:

pkg install bash
curl -LO https://github.com/questdb/questdb/releases/download/6.0.4/questdb-6.0.4-rt-freebsd-amd64.tar.gz
tar xvf questdb-6.0.4-rt-freebsd-amd64.tar.gz
cd questdb-6.0.4-rt-freebsd-amd64

/*
* Perform a basic text search of all (internally generated) chat messages in Jellyfish, like Omnisearch used to do for Flowdock.
*
* Usage:
* 1. Change `theSearchPattern` to the string you're searching for
* 2. Enter line in the Console in the Developer Tools in the browser, after logging into Jellyfish.
* 3. The first 20 results will appear in the console. To see more, press up and return to re-enter the last command.
*
* In case it wasn't clear, this is a terrible hack and not expected to be fit for anything beyond amusement.

Installing getmail on Synology Diskstation DS920+ with DSM 7

Installing getmail on Synology Diskstation DS920+ with DSM 7

  • Did a survey of alternatives and am not convinced there's better out there. The built-in Synology stuff might be capable, but I don't think it's going to be as set-and-forget. So getmail it is.
  • Right, no getmail in the official Synology repositories, but it is in ipkg apparently. So just install that like last time right? Nope. It's opkg now, and the installer doesn't work on DSM 7!
    • Wow, not getting far.
  • Okay, official instructions work just fine (the DS920+ is x86_64, according to uname -a), but need to wait for a reboot and I still have 5 hours of backup copying to go.
  • So in meantime, notice that the opkg getmail package seems to be v4 anyway, and v5 is available. So why not just install it manually?
