# RedisModules-ExecuteCommand # Quick Start Guide Here's what you need to do to build your first module: 0. Build Redis in a build supporting modules. 1. Build librmutil and the module by running `make`. (you can also build them seperatly by running `make` in their respective dirs) 2. Run redis loading the module: `/path/to/redis-server --loadmodule ./module.so` Now run `redis-cli` and try the commands: ``` 127.0.0.1:6379> system.exec "id" "uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)\n" 127.0.0.1:6379> system.exec "whoami" "root\n" 127.0.0.1:6379> ``` Enjoy!
