You can quickly create a temporary remote repository to deploy packages on a one-time
basis. Cloudera recommends using the same host that
runs Cloudera Manager, or a gateway host.
This example uses Python SimpleHTTPServer as the Web server to host the
/var/www/html directory, but you can use a different directory.
-
Download the repository you need following the instructions in Downloading and
Publishing the Package Repository.
- Determine a port that your system is not listening on. This example uses port
8900.
- Start a Python SimpleHTTPServer in the
/var/www/html
directory:
cd /var/www/html
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8900
Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8900 ...
- Visit the Repository URL
http://<web_server>:8900/cloudera-repos/
in your browser and verify the files you downloaded are present.
