Ansible
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Ansible is a radically simple configuration-management, deployment, task-execution, and
|
|
multinode orchestration framework.

Many users run straight from the development branch (it's generally fine to do so), but you might also wish to consume a release. You can find
|
|
instructions [here](http://ansibleworks.com/docs/intro_getting_started.html) for a variety of platforms. If you want a tarball of the last release, go to
|
|
http://ansibleworks.com/releases/ and you can also install with pip.

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
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
* Read [Contributing.md](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/CONTRIBUTING.md) 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.

Branch Info
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
* Releases are 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 "CONTRIBUTING.md" for process notes.
