Running From Source
+++++++++++++++++++
Ansible is trivially easy to run from a checkout, root permissions are not required
to use it and there is no software to actually install for Ansible itself. No daemons
or database setup are required. Because of this, many users in our community use the
development version of Ansible all of the time, so they can take advantage of new features
when they are implemented, and also easily contribute to the project. Because there is
nothing to install, following the development version is significantly easier than most
open source projects.
.. note::
If you are intending to use Tower as the Control Machine, do not use a source install. Please use OS package manager (eg. apt/yum) or pip to install a stable version.

.. code-block:: bash
$ git clone git://github.com/ansible/ansible.git --recursive
$ cd ./ansible
Using Bash:
.. code-block:: bash
$ source ./hacking/env-setup
Using Fish::
$ . ./hacking/env-setup.fish
If you want to suppress spurious warnings/errors, use::
$ source ./hacking/env-setup -q
If you don't have pip installed in your version of Python, install pip::
$ sudo easy_install pip
Ansible also uses the following Python modules that need to be installed [1]_::
$ sudo pip install paramiko PyYAML Jinja2 httplib2 six
Note when updating ansible, be sure to not only update the source tree, but also the "submodules" in git
which point at Ansible's own modules (not the same kind of modules, alas).
.. code-block:: bash
$ git pull --rebase
$ git submodule update --init --recursive
Once running the env-setup script you'll be running from checkout and the default inventory file
will be /etc/ansible/hosts. You can optionally specify an inventory file (see :doc:`intro_inventory`)
other than /etc/ansible/hosts:
.. code-block:: bash
$ echo "127.0.0.1" > ~/ansible_hosts
$ export ANSIBLE_INVENTORY=~/ansible_hosts
.. note::
ANSIBLE_INVENTORY is available starting at 1.9 and substitutes the deprecated ANSIBLE_HOSTS
You can read more about the inventory file in later parts of the manual.
