-title: Using Source
----
-Puppet is currently implemented in Ruby and uses standard Ruby libraries. 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.
