Installation

The source code for rbeapi is provided on Github at http://github.com/arista-eosplus/rbeapi. All current development is done in the develop branch. Stable released versions are tagged in the master branch and uploaded to RubyGems.

To install the latest stable version of rbeapi, simply run gem install rbeapi

To install the latest development version from Github, simply clone the develop branch and run

$ rake build
$ rake install

To create an RPM, run ``rake rpm``

To generate a SWIX file for EOS with necessary dependencies, run ``rake
all_rpms`` then follow the swix create instructions, provided by the build.
NOTE: Puppet provides a puppet agent SWIX which includes Ruby 1.9.3 in
/opt/puppetlabs/bin/ which is different from where you might otherwise
install Ruby. If you have installed the puppet-enterprise 3.x SWIX, then
you should build and use the rbeapi-puppet3 swix, below. If you have
installed the puppet-enterprise 2015.x SWIX, then you should build and use
the rbeapi-puppet-aio swix, below. The Chef client omnibus install also
includes its own version of Ruby in /opt/chef/bin/, thus the rbeapi-chef
swix should be used.  Otherwise, if you have installed at least Ruby
1.9.3 in the standard system location, then the rbeapi SWIX may be used.

$ bundle install --path .bundle/gems/
$ bundle exec rake all_rpms
...
RPMs are available in rpms/noarch/
Copy the RPMs to an EOS device then run the 'swix create' command.
