You -should be able to run Puppet on any Unix-style host with Ruby. Windows -support is planned but not currently available. - -## Before you Begin - -Make sure your host has Ruby version 1.8.2: - - $ ruby -v - -While Puppet should work with 1.8.1, there have been many reports of problems -with this version. - -Make sure you have Subverion: - - $ svn --version -q - -## Get the Source - -Puppet currently relies on another Reductive Labs tool, Facter. Create a working -directory and get them both: - - $ SETUP_DIR=~/svn - $ mkdir -p $SETUP_DIR - $ cd $SETUP_DIR - $ svn checkout https://reductivelabs.com/svn/facter/trunk facter - $ svn checkout https://reductivelabs.com/svn/puppet/trunk puppet - - -# Make it Available - -Last, we need to put the puppet binaries into our path and make the Puppet and -Facter libraries available to Ruby: - - $ PATH=$PATH:$SETUP_DIR/facter/bin:$SETUP_DIR/puppet/trunk/bin - $ RUBYLIB=$SETUP_DIR/facter/lib:$SETUP_DIR/puppet/trunk/lib - $ export PATH RUBYLIB - -Facter changes far less often than Puppet and it is very minimal (a single -library file and a single executable), so it is probably worth just installing -it: - - $ cd facter - $ sudo ruby ./install.rb - -## Test That It Works - -Now you can test that it is working. The best way to do that is described in -the [testing](testing.html) guide, and involves writing a short site manifest. Another -option is to run through all of the unit tests that ship with Puppet: - - $ cd $SETUP_DIR/puppet/test - $ ./test - -This tends to take a long time, however, and is probably only useful if you -already know there's a problem and want to report a bug or if you are planning -on doing development. It is worth noting that some of these tests necessarily -modify your system, so unless you know what you are doing, **it is unadvisable -to run them as root**, and certainly not on a production system. - -*$Id$* |
