Using puppet module straight from a cloned repo

I'm trying to use puppet module in a vagrant setup. In a worked around the problem I tried to solve in this stackoverflow question. I cloned the puppet module repo (apt module and nodejs module) into a sub folder set the puppet module path in the vagrantfile

And include the puppet modules and call them in the puppet manifest file for example:

class { 'apt':
}
include apt

class{ 'apt':} -> apt::builddep { ["python-imaging","python-lxml"]:
    require => Class['apt'] 
 }

I wonder, maybe there is an install/build step I'm missing when I just git clone the repo? is this even possible to do?

The error message:

←[0;37mdebug: importing '/tmp/vagrant-puppet/modules-0/apt/manifests/init.pp' in
 environment production←[0m

Vagrant assumes that this means the command failed!

You are missing the stdlib module, which is a dependency at least of the apt module, and which provides, among other things, the validate_bool function Puppet can't find.

You can find the stdlib module here:
https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-stdlib

Use the Puppet module installation tool rather than just cloning a single repo.

http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/modules_installing.html

or better yet use librarian-puppet.
