ECL course material for community workshops. The training cluster utilized during the workshop is: Training Cluster and ESP Server. After completing this course, you should use: localhost or PlayGround Cluster and PlayGround ESP Server.

Note: The 'persons' and 'property.csv' datasets are already sprayed and available in the training cluster utilized during the workshop.

HPCC Systems platform

Environment for the HPCC-Systems big data platform. This demo uses cloud developer environments (originally GitPod, currently migrated to ONA, now also GitHub Codespaces) to host a single node instance of the HPCC-System platform and VS Code (web based) with the ECL Extension pre-installed.

Launch in GitHub Codespaces

Click the badge below to launch a Codespace using the new dev container configuration.

The Codespaces environment will:

• Build a custom container (see .devcontainer/Dockerfile) installing HPCC Systems platform 9.14.22-1 version
• Auto-start the HPCC services (postStartCommand runs start-hpcc.sh and install-bundles.sh)
• Forward ports 8010 or 18010 (ECL Watch) and 8002 or 18002 (ESP)
• Install the VS Code extensions: hpcc-systems.ecl and gordonsmith.observable-js

Codespaces Notes

• If the HPCC services fail to start (rare), run: start-hpcc.sh in the integrated terminal.
• To rebuild the container after changing devcontainer files: Command Palette → “Codespaces: Rebuild Container”.
• The legacy Gitpod config (.gitpod.yml) remains for backward compatibility; future improvements should target the dev container.
