It is designed to be like git, but for data. The building blocks of the model are: * Revision Control: commits for every update * Diff: differences between commits can be interpreted as patches between states * Push/Pull/Clone: communicate diffs between nodes using push / pull / clone TerminusDB allows you to link JSON documents in a knowledge graph through a document API: The snap is meant mainly for developers to quickly get up and running on their local machines. Therefore it doesn't include a daemon mode. Users that are looking for a full-fledged server deploy should use the Docker image instead. ### Package name * terminusdb --- ### License * Apache-2.0 --- ### Last updated * 12 October 2026 - latest/stable * Yesterday - latest/candidate --- ### Websites * [terminusdb.org](https://terminusdb.org "https://terminusdb.org") * [dfrnt.com](https://dfrnt.com "https://dfrnt.com") --- ### Contact * [dfrnt.com](https://dfrnt.com/contact "https://dfrnt.com/contact") --- ### Source code * [github.com/terminusdb/terminusdb](https://github.com/terminusdb/terminusdb "https://github.com/terminusdb/terminusdb") --- ### Report a bug * [github.com/terminusdb/terminusdb/issues](https://github.com/terminusdb/terminusdb/issues "https://github.com/terminusdb/terminusdb/issues") --- ##### Report a Snap Store violation * [Report this Snap](https://snapcraft.io/install/terminusdb/arch#report-snap-modal) --- ## Enable snaps on Arch Linux and install terminusdb Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully. Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions. ### Enable snapd On Arch Linux, snap can be installed from the [Arch User Repository (AUR).](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/snapd/) The [manual build process](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages) is the Arch-supported install method for AUR packages, and you’ll need the [prerequisites](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites) installed before you can install any AUR package. You can then install snap with the following: ``` git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git cd snapd makepkg -si ``` Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket ``` If [AppArmor](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AppArmor) is enabled in your system, enable the service which loads AppArmor profiles for snaps: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor.service ``` To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`: ``` sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap ``` Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly. ### Install terminusdb To install terminusdb, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install terminusdb ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
