# Quick Start
#### Run TiDB with docker
You can quickly test TiDB with docker, the source repository contains the Dockerfile which
contains local tidb-server.
Or you can pull TiDB docker image contains HBase standalone and then run TiDB as a distributed database in a docker container.
To install docker on your system, you can read the document on https://docs.docker.com/
```
docker pull pingcap/tidb:latest
docker run --name tidb-server -d -p 4000:4000 pingcap/tidb:latest
```
`docker pull` may take a while to download images ~560M.
Then you can use official mysql client to connect to TiDB.
```
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 4000 -u root -D test
```
Notice: OSX user may use `docker-machine ip` to connect it.
#### __Run TiDB on HBase__
Read this [doc](https://github.com/pingcap/tidb/blob/master/docs/HBASE_QUICKSTART.md).
#### __Pre-requirement__
Go environment. Currently a 64-bit version of go >= 1.5 is required.
```
git clone https://github.com/pingcap/tidb.git $GOPATH/src/github.com/pingcap/tidb
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/pingcap/tidb
make
```
#### __Run command line interpreter__
Interpreter is an interactive command line TiDB client.
You can just enter some SQL statements and get the result.
```
make interpreter
cd interpreter && ./interpreter
```
Press `Ctrl+C` to quit.
#### __Run as go library__
See [USAGE.md](./USAGE.md) for detailed instructions to use TiDB as library in Go code.
#### __Run as MySQL protocol server__
```
make server
cd tidb-server && ./tidb-server
```
In case you want to compile a specific location:
```
make server TARGET=$GOPATH/bin/tidb-server
```
The default server port is `4000` and can be changed by flag `-P <port>`.
Run `./tidb-server -h` to see more flag options.
After you started tidb-server, you can use official mysql client to connect to TiDB.
```
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 4000 -u root -D test
```
