= Download Propel =

For a full installation tutorial, check the [wiki:Documentation/1.5/Installation Installation documentation]. The following options allow you to download the Propel code and documentation.

== Subversion Checkout / Externals ==

Propel provides a tag for each version, so you can safely use a checkout or a svn:externals to the version you need ([browser:tags list of available tags]). For the latest stable:

{{{
> svn co http://svn.propelorm.org/tags/1.5.2
}}}

Alternatively, you you want your code to be always up-to-date with the latest bugfixes, use a [browser:branches branch] dependency:

{{{
> svn co http://svn.propelorm.org/branches/1.5
}}}

Tip: You can browse the code of the current release online in the [browser:branches/1.5 'Dev' section].

== PEAR Installer ==

Propel is available through its own PEAR channel (pear.propelorm.org), in two separate packages for generator and runtime:

{{{
> pear channel-discover pear.propelorm.org
> sudo pear install -a propel/propel_generator
> sudo pear install -a propel/propel_runtime
}}}

Propel depends on the [http://phing.info/ Phing] library, and the dependency should be properly handled by PEAR thanks to the `-a` option above. Alternatively, you can install Phing separately:
{{{
> pear channel-discover pear.phing.info
> sudo pear install phing/phing
}}}

Tip: if you would like to use a beta or RC version of Propel, you may need to change your ''preferred_state'' PEAR environment variable.

== Full Propel Package ==

Please download one of the packages below if you would like to install the traditional Propel package, which includes both runtime and generator components.
