install

Addedv1.0.x

This operation downloads the official standalone_embed.sh script into a local install directory. Pass --start to launch the container immediately after download. Requires bash and a working Docker daemon if --start is used.

Synopsis​

zilliz milvus standalone install
[--dir <path>]
[--script-url <url>]
[--dry-run]
[--start]
[--force]

Options​

  • --dir (path) -

    Indicates the install directory. Default: ./milvus-standalone. Created if missing.

  • --script-url (url) -

    Indicates an HTTPS URL to download standalone_embed.sh from. Default: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/milvus-io/milvus/master/scripts/standalone_embed.sh. Non-HTTPS URLs are rejected.

  • --dry-run (boolean) -

    Prints the download and start steps without touching the filesystem or Docker.

  • --start (boolean) -

    After downloading, runs bash standalone_embed.sh start to launch the Milvus container.

  • --force (boolean) -

    Overwrites an existing standalone_embed.sh in the install directory. Without --force, install fails if the script is already present.

Example​

# Download into the default directory
zilliz milvus standalone install

# Download and start in one step

# Custom install directory and overwrite existing script
