Requirements

Installation

We can't provide you with any packages just yet. But rest assured we will have packages for Icinga DB Web and we will make sure you'll get a note if so. For the meantime please use one of the following methods to install Icinga DB Web.

From Release Tarball

Download the latest version and extract it to a folder named icingadb in one of your Icinga Web 2 module paths.

You might want to use a script as follows for this task:

ICINGAWEB_MODULEPATH="/usr/share/icingaweb2/modules"
REPO_URL="https://github.com/Icinga/icingadb-web"
TARGET_DIR="${ICINGAWEB_MODULEPATH}/icingadb"
MODULE_VERSION="1.0.0-rc1"
URL="${REPO_URL}/archive/v${MODULE_VERSION}.tar.gz"
install -d -m 0755 "${TARGET_DIR}"
wget -q -O - "$URL" | tar xfz - -C "${TARGET_DIR}" --strip-components 1

Now proceed with the setup.

From Git Repository

Another convenient method is the installation directly from our Git repository. Just clone the repository to one of your Icinga Web 2 module paths. It will be immediately ready for use:

ICINGAWEB_MODULEPATH="/usr/share/icingaweb2/modules"
REPO_URL="https://github.com/Icinga/icingadb-web"
TARGET_DIR="${ICINGAWEB_MODULEPATH}/icingadb"
MODULE_VERSION="1.0.0-rc1"
git clone "${REPO_URL}" "${TARGET_DIR}"

You can now directly use our current Git master or check out a specific version:

cd "${TARGET_DIR}" && git checkout "v${MODULE_VERSION}"

Now proceed with the setup.

Setup

  1. Log in with a privileged user in Icinga Web 2 and enable the module in Configuration -> Modules -> icingadb. Or use the icingacli and run icingacli module enable icingadb.

  2. Create a new Icinga Web 2 resource for Icinga DB's database using the Configuration -> Application -> Resources menu.

  3. The next step involves telling the module which database resource to use. This can be done in Configuration -> Modules -> icingadb -> Database.

If you previously had the monitoring module installed and configured, you don't have to configure much else. The sole exception might be the redis connection details, which you need to define if it's not locally installed.

The full configuration is described in its own chapter.

This concludes the installation. You should now be able to use Icinga DB Web.
