Five-minute local start¶

This path starts PostgreSQL, creates operator-safe configuration, installs the WALLABY project and a mock local DALiuGE profile, then opens the real control-plane console. It does not contact CASDA, DALiuGE, SSH, or SLURM and cannot submit scientific work.

Prerequisites¶

The beampipe binary is on PATH, or use target/debug/beampipe after a source build.
Docker Compose is available for PostgreSQL.
Run these commands from the repository checkout.

Bootstrap¶

docker compose up -d postgres
mkdir -p operator-local
beampipe init --directory operator-local
cd operator-local
beampipe setup --yes \
  --admin-password 'replace-this-local-password' \
  --project-config ../config/wallaby_hires.v2.yaml

setup creates .env with mode 0600 on Unix, generates a random JWT secret when one was not supplied, applies migrations, creates the administrator, installs the deployment profile, validates the project, and runs diagnostics. It refuses to replace a different deployment-profile file.

Start¶

beampipe doctor
beampipe start

In a second terminal, from operator-local:

beampipe status
beampipe console

The API is at http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/v2. The console reads PostgreSQL and probes only configured integrations; it does not display fabricated scheduler or DALiuGE data.

Before live work¶

Do not set BEAMPIPE_USE_REAL_BACKENDS=true yet. First configure a deployment profile, run beampipe graph prepare, and pass all profile-specific doctor checks. Continue with DALiuGE and Setonix.
