| # Getting the playbook
 | |
| 
 | |
| This Ansible playbook is meant to be executed on your own computer (not the Matrix server).
 | |
| 
 | |
| In special cases (if your computer cannot run Ansible, etc.) you may put the playbook on the server as well.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can retrieve the playbook's source code by:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - [Using git to get the playbook](#using-git-to-get-the-playbook) (recommended)
 | |
| 
 | |
| - [Downloading the playbook as a ZIP archive](#downloading-the-playbook-as-a-zip-archive) (not recommended)
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Using git to get the playbook
 | |
| 
 | |
| We recommend using the [git](https://git-scm.com/) tool to get the playbook's source code, because it lets you easily keep up to date in the future when [Maintaining services](maintenance-upgrading-services.md).
 | |
| 
 | |
| Once you've installed git on your computer, you can go to any directory of your choosing and run the following command to retrieve the playbook's source code:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| git clone https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy.git
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| This will create a new `matrix-docker-ansible-deploy` directory.
 | |
| You're supposed to execute all other installation commands inside that directory.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Downloading the playbook as a ZIP archive
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alternatively, you can download the playbook as a ZIP archive.
 | |
| This is not recommended, as it's not easy to keep up to date with future updates. We suggest you [use git](#using-git-to-get-the-playbook) instead.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The latest version is always at the following URL: https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/archive/master.zip
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can extract this archive anywhere. You'll get a directory called `matrix-docker-ansible-deploy-master`.
 | |
| You're supposed to execute all other installation commands inside that directory.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ---------------------------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| No matter which method you've used to download the playbook, you can proceed by [Configuring the playbook](configuring-playbook.md).
