Ansible is a radically simple IT automation platform that makes your applications and systems easier to deploy. Avoid writing scripts or custom code to deploy and update your applications — automate in a language that approaches plain English, using SSH, with no agents to install on remote systems. https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/

When running on lots of hosts with a large login banner on a slow network, it was still possible that the first recv() didn't to pull in the sudo password prompt, and sudo would fail intermittently. This patch tells sudo to use a specific, randomly-generated prompt and then reads until it finds that prompt (or times out). Only then is the password sent. It also catches `socket.timeout` and thunks it to a more useful `AnsbileError` with the output of sudo so if something goes wrong you can see what's up. |

Ansible
Ansible is a radically simple configuration-management, deployment, task-execution, and multinode orchestration framework.
Read all about at it at (http://ansible.github.com)
Design Principles
- Dead simple setup
- Super fast & parallel by default
- No server or client daemons; use existing SSHd
- No additional software required on client boxes
- Modules can be written in ANY language
- Awesome API for creating very powerful distributed scripts
- Be usable as non-root
- The easiest config management system to use, ever.
Get Involved
- ansible-project mailing list
- irc.freenode.net: #ansible
Branch Info
- The master branch corresponds to release 0.3 "Baluchitherium".
- Bug fixes WILL be periodically made to the master branch.
- The devel branch corresponds to release 0.4 "Unchained".
- Note: sudo support works much better in 0.4/devel, consider trying it.
- See CHANGELOG.md for release notes to track each release.
Patch Instructions
Contributions to the core and modules are greatly welcome.
- Required Process:
- Submit github pull requests to the "ansible/devel" branch for features
- Fixes for bugs may be submitted to "ansible/master"
- Make sure "make tests" passes before submitting any requests.
- Bonus points:
- Joining the mailing list
- Using squash merges
- Updating the "rst/*" files in the docs project and "docs/" manpage content
- Adding more unit tests
- Avoid:
- Sending patches to the mailing list directly.
- Sending feature pull requests to the 'master' branch instead of the devel branch
- Sending pull requests to mpdehaan's personal ansible fork.
