Installation
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Salt is currently available via the Arch User Repository (AUR). There are
|
|
currently stable and -git packages available.
|
|
|
|
Stable Release
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Install Salt stable releases from the Arch Linux AUR as follows:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
wget https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sa/salt/salt.tar.gz
|
|
tar xf salt.tar.gz
|
|
cd salt/
|
|
makepkg -is
|
|
|
|
A few of Salt's dependencies are currently only found within the AUR, so it is
|
|
necessary to download and run ``makepkg -is`` on these as well. As a reference, Salt
|
|
currently relies on the following packages which are only available via the AUR:
|
|
|
|
* https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/py/python2-msgpack/python2-msgpack.tar.gz
|
|
* https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/py/python2-psutil/python2-psutil.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
.. note:: yaourt
|
|
|
|
If a tool such as Yaourt_ is used, the dependencies will be
|
|
gathered and built automatically.
|
|
|
|
The command to install salt using the yaourt tool is:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
yaourt salt
|
|
|
|
.. _Yaourt: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=5863
|
|
|
|
Tracking develop
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
To install the bleeding edge version of Salt (**may include bugs!**),
|
|
use the -git package. Installing the -git package as follows:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
wget https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sa/salt-git/salt-git.tar.gz
|
|
tar xf salt-git.tar.gz
|
|
cd salt-git/
|
|
makepkg -is
|
|
|
|
See the note above about Salt's dependencies.
|
|
|
|
Post-installation tasks
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
**Configuration files**
|
|
|
|
The Salt package installs two template configuration files,
|
|
``/etc/salt/master.template`` and ``/etc/salt/minion.template``. These
|
|
files need to be copied as follows:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
cp /etc/salt/master.template /etc/salt/master
|
|
cp /etc/salt/minion.template /etc/salt/minion
|
|
|
|
Note: only the configuration files for the services to be run need be
|
|
copied.
|
|
|
|
**rc.conf**
|
|
|
|
Activate the Salt Master and/or Minion in ``/etc/rc.conf`` as follows:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: diff
|
|
|
|
-DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network crond)
|
|
+DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network crond @salt-master @salt-minion)
|
|
|
|
**Start the Master**
|
|
|
|
Once you've completed all of these steps you're ready to start your Salt
|
|
Master. You should be able to start your Salt Master now using the command
|
|
seen here:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
rc.d start salt-master
|
|
|
|
Now go to the :doc:`Configuring Salt</topics/configuration>` page.
