title: How to Use Custom Version of Kubes
nav_text: Custom Version
category: gem
order: 1
---
If you want or need to run a forked version of kubes, here's how:
## Change Version Number
First, clone down the source and change version number so you can identify that it's a custom version. Clone down the project:
$ git clone https://github.com/boltops-tools/kubes
Update [lib/kubes/version.rb](https://github.com/boltops-tools/kubes/blob/master/lib/kubes/version.rb) so you'll be able to tell that it's a custom build. For example:
```ruby
module kubes
VERSION = "0.8.2.custom"
end
```
There are 2 ways to use the custom version:
1. Gemfile: Forked Git Source
2. Gem Package: Build and Install
## Gemfile: Forked Git Source
Point `kubes ` to use your repo with the forked version. Example:
Gemfile:
```ruby
source "https://rubygems.org"
gem 'kubes', git: 'https://github.com/REPO/kubes', branch: "master"
```
Remember to change `REPO`, to your repo name.
Then run:
bundle
## Gem Package: Build and Install
Build the gem package:
$ bundle
$ rake build
pkg/kubes-0.8.2.custom.gem
The produced `.gem` file can used to install the gem. You can install it locally:
$ gem install pkg/kubes-0.8.2.custom.gem
$ kubes -v
0.8.2.custom
Or on any machine with Ruby installed. You can copy it to the machine, ssh into it, and install the custom gem:
$ scp pkg/kubes-0.8.2.custom.gem user@server.com:
$ ssh user@server.com
$ gem install kubes-0.8.2.custom.gem
$ kubes -v
0.8.2.custom
