Quickstart

Prerequisites

Tracelake is deployed as a single docker container. This makes it very portable and gives you flexibility to run it anywhere.

The only requirement is a running docker engine.

  1. Create an account

    To create an account on Tracelake, you can use the following methods:

    Self-registration

    • Visit portal.tracelake.com
    • Click on the “Sign Up” button
    • Fill out the registration form with your details
    • Follow the email verification steps sent to your inbox

    Organization Invitation

    • Receive an invitation email from an existing Tracelake organization
    • Click the invitation link in the email
    • Complete your account setup by following the guided steps
  2. Start tracelake server

    The image is stored in private docker registry and is only accessible to authenticated users. You can see your credentials in Tracelake portal under Deploy.

    Easiest way to get started is to follow the instructions at deploying Tracelake where you get pre-configured docker commands.

    For reference, here is the command to run Tracelake:

    Terminal window
    docker login registry.tracelake.com
    docker run -d --restart unless-stopped \
    -v tracelake_data:/app/tracelake_server/data \
    -e TRACELAKE_PORTAL_TOKEN=••••••••••••••• \
    --name tracelake \
    -p 8000:8000 \
    registry.tracelake.com/tracelake:latest

    This will start Tracelake on port 8000 on your local machine. For more deployment options, see Deploying Tracelake.
