NAME
----
ansible-pull - set up a remote copy of ansible on each managed node
SYNOPSIS
--------
ansible -d DEST -U URL [ -C CHECKOUT ]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
*Ansible* is an extra-simple tool/framework/API for doing \'remote things' over
SSH.
Use ansible-pull to set up a remote copy of ansible on each managed
node, each set to run via cron and update playbook source via
git. This inverts the default *push* architecture of ansible into a
*pull* architecture, which has near-limitless scaling potential.
The setup playbook can be tuned to change the cron frequency, logging
locations, and parameters to ansible-pull.
This is useful both for extreme scale-out as well as periodic
remediation. Usage of the 'fetch' module to retrieve logs from
ansible-pull runs would be an excellent way to gather and analyze
remote logs from ansible-pull.
OPTIONS
-------
*-d* 'DEST', *--directory=*'DEST'::
Directory to checkout git repository into.
*-U* 'URL', *--url=*'URL'::
URL of git repository to clone.
*-C* 'CHECKOUT', *--checkout=*'CHECKOUT'::
Branch/Tag/Commit to checkout. Defaults to 'HEAD'.

for a complete list of contributors.
