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/

Provide a way to explicitly invoke the debugger (#34006)
* Provide a way to explicitly invoke the debugger with in the debug strategy

* Merge the debugger strategy into StrategyBase

* Fix some logic, pin to a single result

* Make redo also continue

* Make sure that if the debug closure doesn't need to process the result, that we still return it

* Fix failing tests for the strategy

* Clean up messages from debugger and exit code to match bin/ansible

* Move the FieldAttribute higher, to apply at different levels

* make debugger a string, expand logic

* Better host state rollbacks

* More explicit debugger prompt

* ENABLE_TASK_DEBUGGER should be boolean, and better docs

* No bare except, add pprint, alias h, vars to task_vars

* _validate_debugger can ignore non-string, that can be caught later

* Address issue if there were no previous tasks/state, and use the correct key

* Update docs for changes to the debugger

* Guard against a stat going negative through use of decrement

* Add a few notes about using the debugger on the free strategy

* Add changelog entry for task debugger

* Add a few versionadded indicators and a note about vars -> task_vars

PyPI version Build Status

Ansible

Ansible is a radically simple IT automation system. It handles configuration-management, application deployment, cloud provisioning, ad-hoc task-execution, and multinode orchestration - including trivializing things like zero downtime rolling updates with load balancers.

Read the documentation and more at https://ansible.com/

You can find installation instructions here for a variety of platforms. Most users should probably install a released version of Ansible from pip, a package manager or our release repository. Officially supported builds of Ansible are also available. Some power users run directly from the development branch - while significant efforts are made to ensure that devel is reasonably stable, you're more likely to encounter breaking changes when running Ansible this way.

Design Principles

  • Have a dead simple setup process and a minimal learning curve
  • Manage machines very quickly and in parallel
  • Avoid custom-agents and additional open ports, be agentless by leveraging the existing SSH daemon
  • Describe infrastructure in a language that is both machine and human friendly
  • Focus on security and easy auditability/review/rewriting of content
  • Manage new remote machines instantly, without bootstrapping any software
  • Allow module development in any dynamic language, not just Python
  • Be usable as non-root
  • Be the easiest IT automation system to use, ever.

Get Involved

  • Read Community Information for all kinds of ways to contribute to and interact with the project, including mailing list information and how to submit bug reports and code to Ansible.
  • All code submissions are done through pull requests. Take care to make sure no merge commits are in the submission, and use git rebase vs git merge for this reason. If submitting a large code change (other than modules), it's probably a good idea to join ansible-devel and talk about what you would like to do or add first and to avoid duplicate efforts. This not only helps everyone know what's going on, it also helps save time and effort if we decide some changes are needed.

  • Development list: ansible-devel
  • Announcement list: ansible-announce - read only

Branch Info

  • Releases are named after Led Zeppelin songs. (Releases prior to 2.0 were named after Van Halen songs.)
  • The devel branch corresponds to the release actively under development.
  • Various release-X.Y branches exist for previous releases.
  • We'd love to have your contributions, read Community Information for notes on how to get started.
