<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>Before Gun can be used it needs to be in Erlang’s <code>ERL_LIBS</code> path variable.
If you use <code>erlang.mk</code> or a similar build tool, you only need to specify
Gun as a dependency to your application and the tool will take care
of downloading Gun and setting up paths.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>With <code>erlang.mk</code> this is done by adding <code>gun</code> to the <code>DEPS</code> variable
in your Makefile.</p></div>

<div class="paragraph"><p>An <em>OTP release</em> starts applications automatically. All you need
to do is to set up your application resource file so that Gun can
be included in the release. The application resource file can be
found in <code>ebin/your_application.app</code>, or in <code>src/your_application.app.src</code>
if you are using a build tool like <code>erlang.mk</code>.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The key you need to change is the <code>applications</code> key. By default
it only includes <code>kernel</code> and <code>stdlib</code>. You need to add <code>gun</code> to
that list.</p></div>
