Is it possible to install this on a Windows7 machine? #22

Open starryknight7 opened 9 years ago

versae commented 9 years ago

We have never done it before, but I don't see why not, as long as required technological stack works in Windows 7. However, after my 2 min. research, everything seems to have Windows versions, but GraphLab Create, which is the library we use underneath to run the analysis. We have plans to replace it with an open-source alternative such as SparkX GraphX, but its Python interface is still on the works.

What you need:

And for analysis and reports just add:

That being said, if you don't need graph analysis, you are ready to go.

PS: For Mac OS X there shouldn't be any problem.

I definitely need graph analysis, and am using a Windows machine. If GraphLab Create doesn't work, can you suggest an alternative? I've been playing with the cloud version of Sylva and am really impressed.

Thanks!

What you need:

  • Python/Django
  • pip tools
  • PostgreSQL
  • Neo4j

And for analysis and reports just add:

  • GraphLab Create (only for graph analysis)
  • Celery
  • Redis
  • RabbitMQ

That being said, if you don't need graph analysis, you are ready to go.

Thanks!

The solution the people behind GraphLab propose is to use a virtual machine XD I can see that doesn't work for you.

We will star working in the Apache Spark GraphX replacement as soon as they create the Python interface. But in the meantime, you can easily overwrite the analytic engine and make it work with NetworkX instead. Obviously, this will incur in a performance/memory issue with big graphs, but it's the best workaround for now.

Well, it looks like GraphLab Create has become open source. I hope it's a matter of time that they release a Windows compatible version.
