# Man Page: puppet script
> **NOTE:** This page was generated from the Puppet source code on 2024-08-29 17:41:46 -0700
## NAME
**puppet-script** - Run a puppet manifests as a script without compiling
a catalog
## SYNOPSIS
Runs a puppet language script without compiling a catalog.
## USAGE
puppet script \[-h\|\--help\] \[-V\|\--version\] \[-d\|\--debug\]
\[-v\|\--verbose\] \[-e\|\--execute\] \[-l\|\--logdest
syslog\|eventlog\|*FILE*\|console\] \[\--noop\] *file*
## DESCRIPTION
This is a standalone puppet script runner tool; use it to run puppet
code without compiling a catalog.
When provided with a modulepath, via command line or config file, puppet
script can load functions, types, tasks and plans from modules.
## OPTIONS
Note that any setting that\'s valid in the configuration file is also a
valid long argument. For example, \'environment\' is a valid setting, so
you can specify \'\--environment mytest\' as an argument.
See the configuration file documentation at
https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/latest/configuration.html for the full
list of acceptable parameters. A commented list of all configuration
options can also be generated by running puppet with \'\--genconfig\'.
\--debug
: Enable full debugging.
\--help
: Print this help message
\--logdest
: Where to send log messages. Choose between \'syslog\' (the POSIX
syslog service), \'eventlog\' (the Windows Event Log), \'console\',
or the path to a log file. Defaults to \'console\'. Multiple
destinations can be set using a comma separated list (eg:
**/path/file1,console,/path/file2**)\"
A path ending with \'.json\' will receive structured output in JSON
format. The log file will not have an ending \'\]\' automatically
written to it due to the appending nature of logging. It must be
appended manually to make the content valid JSON.
A path ending with \'.jsonl\' will receive structured output in JSON
Lines format.
\--noop
: Use \'noop\' mode where Puppet runs in a no-op or dry-run mode. This
is useful for seeing what changes Puppet will make without actually
executing the changes. Applies to tasks only.
\--execute
: Execute a specific piece of Puppet code
\--verbose
: Print extra information.
## EXAMPLE
$ puppet script -l /tmp/manifest.log manifest.pp
$ puppet script --modulepath=/root/dev/modules -e 'notice("hello world")'
