Installation from the Official SaltStack Repository
===================================================
Packages for Ubuntu 16 (Xenial), Ubuntu 14 (Trusty), and Ubuntu 12 (Precise)
are available in the SaltStack repository.
Instructions are at https://repo.saltstack.com/#ubuntu.
Installation from the Community-Maintained Repository
=====================================================
Packages for Ubuntu are also published in the saltstack PPA. If you have
the ``add-apt-repository`` utility, you can add the repository and import the
key in one step:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:saltstack/salt
In addition to the main repository, there are secondary repositories for each
individual major release. These repositories receive security and point
releases but will not upgrade to any subsequent major release. There are
currently several available repos: salt16, salt17, salt2014-1, salt2014-7,
salt2015-5. For example to follow 2015.5.x releases:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:saltstack/salt2015-5
.. admonition:: add-apt-repository: command not found?
The ``add-apt-repository`` command is not always present on Ubuntu systems.
This can be fixed by installing `python-software-properties`:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
The following may be required as well:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
Note that since Ubuntu 12.10 (Raring Ringtail), ``add-apt-repository`` is
found in the `software-properties-common` package, and is part of the base
install. Thus, ``add-apt-repository`` should be able to be used
out-of-the-box to add the PPA.
Alternately, manually add the repository and import the PPA key with these
commands:
.. code-block:: bash
echo deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/saltstack/salt/ubuntu `lsb_release -sc` main | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/saltstack.list
wget -q -O- "http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x4759FA960E27C0A6" | sudo apt-key add -
After adding the repository, update the package management database:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo apt-get update
.. _ubuntu-install-pkgs:
Install Packages
================
Install the Salt master, minion or other packages from the repository with
the `apt-get` command. These examples each install one of Salt components, but
more than one package name may be given at a time:
- ``apt-get install salt-api``
- ``apt-get install salt-cloud``
- ``apt-get install salt-master``
- ``apt-get install salt-minion``
- ``apt-get install salt-ssh``
- ``apt-get install salt-syndic``
