Repository summary
The ansible/ansible GitHub repository is the official repository for Ansible, an open-source software provisioning, configuration management, and application deployment tool. It is written in Python and uses a YAML syntax for defining automation jobs, which it calls "playbooks".
Key features of Ansible/Ansible include:
Simple to use: Ansible uses a simple syntax written in YAML, which allows you to describe your automation jobs in a way that approaches plain English.
Agentless: There is no software or runtime to install on the nodes that Ansible manages. It operates by connecting to your nodes and pushing out small programs, called "Ansible modules", to them.
Powerful & flexible: Ansible has a rich set of modules (over 1300) and plugins for a wide range of systems, services, and APIs.
Efficient: Because of its agentless nature and its "Facts" system, which gathers system data that can be used in playbooks, Ansible is very efficient and requires minimal resources.
Secure: All communications are done via SSH, which is inherently secure. Additionally, Ansible doesn't require any additional open ports on your nodes.
The repository itself contains all the code for Ansible, its modules, plugins, as well as documentation and examples of use. It's actively maintained by the Ansible team, part of Red Hat, and a large community of contributors. The repository uses GitHub's issues and pull request features for tracking bugs and feature requests, and for accepting contributions.
