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/

Dag Wieers bb58d3f20c Example plugin to send out mails on error
This is useful mostly for playbooks that run unattended and for a limited set of systems. In case of provisioninging this plugin (together with a final mail action) helps to get notified when something went wrong, or when the installation finished successfully.

Unfortunately, there is no way to enable/disable a plugin from a playbook. So installing the plugin means all other use-cases (provisioning, troubleshooting, reporting or management) all send mails on failure. Something we may want to fix in the future...
