Download a Designed Pipeline with the SDC Edge Executable

From the edge pipeline canvas, you can download the SDC Edge executable along with the edge pipeline open in the canvas. Download and install the edge executable if you want to locally run the pipeline on SDC Edge.

Tip: In most cases, your Control Hub administrator installs and registers multiple Edge Data Collectors, assigning one or more labels to each. You simply add your designed edge pipelines to jobs, and tag labels to the job so that Control Hub knows which group of Edge Data Collectors should run the pipeline. When you run the jobs, Control Hub runs a remote pipeline instance on any SDC Edge with all listed job labels.

For more information, see Edge Data Collectors.

  1. Open an edge pipeline in the pipeline canvas.
  2. Click the More icon () and then click Download Executable.
  3. Select the platform of the edge device where you want to install SDC Edge, and then click Download.
  4. Move the tarball downloaded to your machine to the edge device.
  5. Extract the downloaded file.
    For example, use the following command on Linux to extract the tarball to the desired location on the edge device, typically /opt/local:
    tar xf streamsets-datacollector-edge-<version>-<os>-<architecture>.tgz
  6. To start SDC Edge and the edge pipeline at the same time, run the following command from the SDC Edge home directory:
    bin/edge -start=<pipelineID>
    If the edge pipeline uses parameters, use the following command:
    bin/edge -start=<pipelineID> -runtimeParameters='{"<parameter_name1>":"<parameter_value1>","<parameter_name2":"<parameter_value2>"}'
