Accessing Analytic View Studio
Passerine Analytics delivers Analytic View Studio through a private Git release repository. This guide explains how you receive access and how to install and keep your deployment up to date using Git.
Delivery model
Passerine Analytics delivers Analytic View Studio (AV Studio) through a private Git deployment repository. This repository always contains the current, tested production release of AV Studio.
Customers receive read-only access to this release repository — not to the internal development repository. You keep your installation current by pulling updates from the release repository whenever a new production version is published.
The release repository is private. Access is provisioned individually for each customer and is never publicly available.
What Passerine Analytics provides
When your access is set up, Passerine Analytics will provide:
- The private repository URL for your AV Studio release.
- An access method — either access for your GitHub account, or an SSH deploy key configured for your server.
- Initial setup guidance to get your first installation running.
- Release notes and version tag information, where applicable, so you know what has changed in each release.
Customer prerequisites
Before you begin, make sure you have:
- A server or workstation where AV Studio will be installed.
- Git installed on that machine.
- Network access to GitHub, or to the configured Git host.
- SSH access configured, if you are using an SSH deploy key.
Initial installation
To install AV Studio for the first time, clone the release repository and move into it. Use the repository URL provided to you by Passerine Analytics:
git clone [email protected]:Passerine-Analytics/AV-Studio-Release.git
cd AV-Studio-Release
The URL above is a placeholder. Passerine Analytics will provide your actual repository URL when your access is set up.
Updating to the latest production release
When a new production release is published, update your existing installation by pulling the latest changes:
cd AV-Studio-Release
git pull origin main
The main branch always represents the latest tested production release of AV Studio.
Using a fixed release version
In some cases, Passerine Analytics may ask you to run a specific version rather than the latest. Each production release is marked with a version tag. To use a fixed version, fetch the tags and check out the one you have been given:
git fetch --tags
git checkout v1.0.0
Use the exact tag name provided by Passerine Analytics in place of v1.0.0.
Typical workflow
- Passerine Analytics publishes a tested production release.
- You run
git pullon your installation. - You receive the latest approved version of AV Studio.
Security notes
- Your access to the release repository is read-only.
- You do not receive access to internal development branches or to source history beyond the release repository.
- Access can be revoked or updated by Passerine Analytics as needed.
- Please do not share your repository credentials or SSH keys with anyone.
