Pig Installation Steps


2 Answer(s)


Hello Venu,

1) Create directory in lib: sudo mkdir /usr/lib/pig

2) Give it the permissions to your user and group: sudo chown -R user.group /usr/lib/pig

3) Go to the directory: cd /usr/lib/pig

4) Download it from https://pig.apache.org/ (pig-0.16.0.tar.gz) into the directory and extract: tar -zxvf pig-0.16.0.tar.gz

5) Edit the .bashrc file and insert the follow lines: gedit ~/.bashrc
export PIG_HOME=/usr/lib/pig/pig-0.16.0
export PATH=$PATH:$PIG_HOME/bin

6) Restart the .bashrc: source ~/.bashrc

7) Start to use pig: pig -h

If you need to change some configuration: /usr/lib/pig/conf

Good luck!
