LAMP Stack Installation

By: Vanaja
4 March 2024 at 05:13
  • A LAMP stack is a bundle of four different software technologies that developers use to build websites and web applications.
  • LAMP is acronymn for Linux – Operating System, Apache – Web Server, MYSQL – Database Server, PHP – Programming Language.
  • All four of these technologies are open source, which means they are community maintained and freely available for anyone to use.
  • Developers use LAMP stacks to create, host, and maintain web content.

LINUX – Linux is open source operating system, that you can install and configure to meet different application requirements.

APACHE – Apache is an open source web server that forms the second layer of the lamp stack. The Apache module stores websites files and exchanges information with a browser using HTTP, an internet protocol for transferring websire information in plain text. When a browser request a webpage, the Apache HTTP server does the following steps:

  • Receives the request
  • Processes the request and finds the required page file
  • Sends the relevant information back to the browser

MySQL – MYSQL is an open-source relational database management system and is the third layer of the LAMP stack. The LAMP model uses MySQL for storing, managing, and querying information in relational databases.

PHP – PHP which stands for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, is the fourth and final layer of the LAMP stack. It is a scripting language that allows websites to run dynamic processes. A dynamic process involves information in software that constantly changes. Web developers embed the PHP programming language in HTML to show real-time or updated information on websites.

Steps for LAMP Stack Installation

STEP 1 : Apache Installation

sudo apt update -y && apt upgrade -y
sudo apt install apache2 apache2-utils -y
sudo systemctl start apache2
sudo systemctl enable apache2
sudo systemctl status apache2
apache2 -v

Check on browser with ip of server we need to set www-data (Apache user) as the owner of document root.

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html

STEP 2: MariaDB Installation

sudo apt install mariadb-server mariadb-client
sudo systemctl start mariadb
sudo systemctl enable mariadb
sudo systemctl status mariadb

Creating root password for mariadb

mysql_secure_installation
Enter current password for root (enter for none): enter
Set root password? [Y/n] Y
New password:******
Re-enter new password:******
Remove anonymous users? [Y/n]Y
Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n]Y
Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n]Y
Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n]Y

Login to Mariadb

mariadb --version
mariadb -u root -p
MariaDB [(none)]> exit

STEP 3 : PHP Installation

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt update
sudo apt install php8.2 libapache2-mod-php8.2 php8.2-mysql php-common php8.2-cli php8.2-common php8.2-opcache php8.2-readline php-json

Enable the Apache php8.2 module then restart Apache Web server.

a2enmod php8.2

Restart the apache server and check the version

sudo systemctl restart apache2
php --version

Test with php test page

sudo vim /var/www/html/info.php
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
:wq! save and exit

In terminal

curl http://<server_ip>/info.php

Or in browser

http://<server_ip>/info.php

3 September 2023 at 04:05

1. How to list the database names in postgreSQL?

Syntax

\l

  • Default database available in postgreSQL are: Postgres, template 0 and template 1
  • payilagam is user defined database

2. How to create a database ?

Syntax

The basic syntax of CREATE DATABASE statement is as follows −

CREATE DATABASE dbname;

3. How to swich connection to a new Database?

\c database name

Old Database name is “payilagam”, been switch to new database name “java” as shown above.

4. How to create a schema name in postgresql Database?

Syntax: CREATE SCHEMA [IF NOT EXISTS] schema_name;

5. How to list the schema names?

\dn

Schema names are like package name in java. basics, online are user defined schema name in ‘payilagam’ Database. public is default schema name

SQL commands are like instructions to a table.

  • It is used to interact with the database with some operations.
  • It is also used to perform specific tasks, functions, and queries of data.
  • SQL can perform various tasks like creating a table, adding data to tables, dropping the table, modifying the table, set permission for users.

These SQL commands are mainly categorized into five categories: 

  • DDL – Data Definition Language
  • DQL – Data Query Language
  • DML – Data Manipulation Language
  • DCL – Data Control Language
  • TCL – Transaction Control Language

DDL (Data Definition Language)

  • DDL or Data Definition Language actually consists of the SQL commands that can be used to define the database schema.
  • It simply deals with descriptions of the database schema and is used to create and modify the structure of database objects in the database.
  • DDL is a set of SQL commands used to create, modify, and delete database structures but not data.
  • These commands are normally not used by a general user, who should be accessing the database via an application.

List of DDL commands: 

  • CREATE: This command is used to create the database or its objects (like table, index, function, views, store procedure, and triggers).
  • DROP: This command is used to delete objects from the database.
  • ALTER: This is used to alter the structure of the database.
  • TRUNCATE: This is used to remove all records from a table, including all spaces allocated for the records are removed.
  • COMMENT: This is used to add comments to the data dictionary.
  • RENAME: This is used to rename an object existing in the database.

DDL commands: CREATE

6. How to create table in PostgreSQL Database?

SYNTAX

CREATE table table_name(column 1 datatype size, column 2 datatype size, column 3 datatype size….. column N datatype size);

Here table_name is name of the table, column is the name of column.

7. How to describe the table in postgreSQL?

\d table_name

DDL commands: ALTER

  • The ALTER TABLE statement in SQL is used to add, remove, or modify columns in an existing table.
  • The ALTER TABLE statement is also used to add and remove various constraints on existing tables.

8. How to ALTER table Add column statement?

SYNTAX

ALTER TABLE table_name add column column_name datatype(size);

9. How to ALTER table DROP column statement?

SYNTAX

ALTER TABLE table_name drop column column_name ;

10. How to ALTER table name?

SYNTAX

ALTER TABLE table_name rename to new table_name;

11. How to ALTER column name?

SYNTAX

ALTER TABLE table_name rename column column_name to new column_name;

Before altering the column name:-

After altering the column name:-

DDL commands: DROP

Drop is used to delete the whole database or just a table.

12. How to drop a table?

SYNTAX

DROP table table_name;

DDL commands: TRUNCATE
  • TRUNCATE is used to delete the data inside the table not the whole table.
  • TRUNCATE statement is a Data Definition Language (DDL) operation that is used to mark the extent of a table for deallocation (empty for reuse).

13. How to TRUNCATE a table?

SYNTAX

TRUNCATE table table_name;

DROP vs TRUNCATE
  • Truncate is normally ultra-fast and it’s ideal for deleting data from a temporary table.
  • Truncate preserves the structure of the table for future use, unlike drop table where the table is deleted with its full structure.
  • Table or Database deletion using a DROP statement cannot be rolled back, so it must be used wisely.

Thank you!!

  • PostgreSQL is an advanced, enterprise-class, and open-source relational database system.
  • PostgreSQL supports both SQL (relational) and JSON (non-relational) querying.
  • PostgreSQL is a powerful, open source object-relational database system that uses and extends the SQL language combined with many features that safely store and scale the most complicated data workloads.
  • PostgreSQL is a highly stable database backed by more than 20 years of development by the open-source community.
  • PostgreSQL is used as a primary database for many web applications as well as mobile and analytics applications.

History of PostgreSQL

  • The PostgreSQL project started in 1986 at Berkeley Computer Science Department, University of California.
  • The project was originally named POSTGRES, in reference to the older Ingres database which also developed at Berkeley. The goal of the POSTGRES project was to add the minimal features needed to support multiple data types.
  • In 1996, the POSTGRES project was renamed to PostgreSQL to clearly illustrate its support for SQL. Today, PostgreSQL is commonly abbreviated as Postgres.
  • Since then, the PostgreSQL Global Development Group, a dedicated community of contributors continues to make the releases of the open-source and free database project.
  • Originally, PostgreSQL was designed to run on UNIX-like platforms. And then, PostgreSQL was evolved run on various platforms such as Windows, macOS, and Solaris.

Common Use cases of PostgreSQL

The following are the common use cases of PostgreSQL.

  • A robust database in the LAPP stack -LAPP stands for Linux, Apache, PostgreSQL, and PHP (or Python and Perl). PostgreSQL is primarily used as a robust back-end database that powers many dynamic websites and web applications.
  • General purpose transaction database -Large corporations and startups alike use PostgreSQL as primary databases to support their applications and products.
  • Geospatial database-PostgreSQL with the PostGIS extension supports geospatial databases for geographic information systems (GIS).

Language support

PostgreSQL support most popular programming languages:

  • Python
  • Java
  • C#
  • C/C+
  • Ruby
  • JavaScript (Node.js)
  • Perl
  • Go
  • Tcl

Many companies have built products and solutions based on PostgreSQL. Some featured companies are Apple, Fujitsu, Red Hat, Cisco, Juniper Network, Instagram, etc.

List of various features found in PostgreSQL

  • Data Types
    • Primitives: Integer, Numeric, String, Boolean
    • Structured: Date/Time, Array, Range / Multirange, UUID
    • Document: JSON/JSONB, XML, Key-value (Hstore)

    • Procedural Languages: PL/pgSQL, Perl, Python, and Tcl. There are other languages available through extensions, e.g. Java, JavaScript (V8), R, Lua, and Rust
    • SQL/JSON path expressions
    • Foreign data wrappers: connect to other databases or streams with a standard SQL interface
    • Customizable storage interface for tables
    • Many extensions that provide additional functionality, including PostGIS
  • Internationalisation, Text Search
    • Support for international character sets, e.g. through ICU collations
    • Case-insensitive and accent-insensitive collations
    • Full-text search

Disadvantages of PostgreSQL

  • Postgres is not owned by one organization. … 
  • Changes made for speed improvement requires more work than MySQL as PostgreSQL focuses on compatibility.
  • Many open source apps support MySQL, but may not support PostgreSQL.
  • On performance metrics, it is slower than MySQL.

ArrayList HashSet

 Difference between HashSet and ArrayList in Java 

HashSetArrayList
ImplementationSetList
Internal implementationbacked by HashMapbacked by Array
DuplicatesUnique valuespermit duplicates
OrderingUnorderedMaintains order
Index based  NoYes
  • Syntax: ArrayList:-

ArrayList list=new ArrayList();

  • Syntax: HashSet:-

HashSet set=new HashSet();

  1. Implementation: Implementation : ArrayList implements List interface while HashSet implements Set interface in Java.
  2. Internal implementation: ArrayList is backed by an Array while HashSet is backed by an HashMap.
  3. Duplicates : ArrayList allows duplicate values while HashSet doesn’t allow duplicates values.
  4. Constructor : ArrayList have three constructor which are ArrayList(), ArrayList(int capacity) ArrayList(int Collection c) while HashSet have four constructor which are HashSet(), HashSet(int capacity), HashSet(Collection c) and HashSet(int capacity, float loadFactor)
  5. Ordering : ArrayList maintains the order of the object in which they are inserted while HashSet is an unordered collection and doesn’t maintain any order.
  6. Indexing : ArrayList is index based we can retrieve object by calling get(index) method or remove objects by calling remove(index) method while HashSet is completely object based. HashSet also does not provide get() method.
  7. Null Object: ArrayList not apply any restriction, we can add any number of null value while HashSet allow one null value.

Basic Operation’s Time complexity :-  

          ArrayList common operation’s time complexity

         add() – takes O(1) time;( tbd)?
         get() – it takes constant time O(1);
         remove() –it takes linear time complexity O(n) . It iterate the entire array to find the element qualifying for removal.
        contains() – It also take linear time complexity O(n).

For HashSet, the add(), remove() and contains() operations cost constant O(1) time

Converting ArrayList to HashSet:
