    Add fail_on_undefined flag

    Add a fail_on_undefined flag to the template and template_from_string methods.

    If this flag is true, then re-raise the ninja2.excpetions.UndefinedError instead of
    swallowing it.

    Optionally fail task on undefined variables

    This patch introduces a new configuration option called
    error_on_undefined_vars, which defaults to false.

    If this option is set to true, then a task which has unevaluated
    variables in its arguments will fail instead of running. Output looks
    like this:

        TASK: [set rabbitmq password] *************************************************
        fatal: [10.20.0.7] => Undefined variables: rabbitmq_user, rabbitmq_password

Ansible

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

Read the documentation and more at http://ansibleworks.com/

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 on http://ansibleworks.com/docs/gettingstarted.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 (though that will bring in some optional binary dependencies you normally do not need).

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

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.
