Unfortunately, we have yet to streamline this process for external use. You can still roll your own native facter build though. You'll want to use the script at https://github.com/puppetlabs/facter/blob/master/contrib/facter.ps1. You need to run the script on probably a windows 2012 box (64 bit), and I would strongly suggest reviewing the script to ensure that we don't do anything that's going to mess you up. It's meant to be run on a disposable box. After that builds, we collect all the built bits and library dependencies into the zip archive that the automation in puppet_for_the_win looks for. We don't have that automation in a public space, but here's a summary of what goes into that archive. This assumes you're building 64 bit, so if you're building for a 32 bit machine, you'll have to modify it. # Move all necessary dll's into facter bindir "cp /cygdrive/c/tools/mingw64/bin/libgcc_s_seh-1.dll /cygdrive/c/tools/mingw64/bin/libstdc++-6.dll /cygdrive/c/tools/mingw64/bin/libwinpthread-1.dll /home/Administrator/facter/release/bin/" # Format everything to prepare to archive it "mkdir -p /home/Administrator/archive/lib ; cp -r /home/Administrator/facter/release/bin /home/Administrator/facter/lib/inc /home/Administrator/archive/ ; cp /home/Administrator/facter/release/lib/facter.rb /home/Administrator/archive/lib/" # Zip up the built archives "7za.exe a -r -tzip facter.zip 'C:\\cygwin64\\home\\Administrator\\archive\\*'\" Once you have that archive, you can modify the config file you're using to point to where that archive can be found. That *should* let the automation in puppet_for_the_win work.
