Ansible ======= Ansible is a radically simple configuration-management, deployment, task-execution, and multinode orchestration framework. Read all about at it at (http://ansible.github.com) 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 ============ * [ansible-project mailing list](http://groups.google.com/group/ansible-project) * irc.freenode.net: #ansible Patch Instructions ================== Contributions to the core and modules are greatly welcome. * Required Process: * Submit github pull requests to the "ansible/devel" branch for features * Fixes for bugs may be submitted to "ansible/master" * Make sure "make tests" passes before submitting any requests. * Bonus points: * Joining the mailing list * Using squash merges * Updating the "rst/*" files in the docs project and "docs/" manpage content * Adding more unit tests * Avoid: * Sending patches to the mailing list directly. * Sending feature pull requests to the 'master' branch instead of the devel branch * Sending pull requests to mpdehaan's personal ansible fork.
