ARA Records Ansible
Project description
ARA Records Ansible
ARA Records Ansible playbook runs and makes the recorded data available and intuitive for users and systems.
ARA doesn’t run your playbooks for you: it integrates with Ansible as a callback plugin wherever it is.
Whether you are running Ansible from your personal laptop or a server, all you need to do is to install ARA, configure Ansible to use ARA and you’re good to go.
Quickstart
# Install ARA pip install ara # Load environment variables that inform Ansible to use ARA regardless # of its location or python version source <(python -m ara.setup.env) # Run your Ansible playbook or commands # ansible-playbook myplaybook.yml # Start the ARA standalone webserver ara-manage runserver # Browse http://127.0.0.1:9191
Refer to the documentation for more information.
ARA components
ARA has four main components:
An Ansible callback plugin to record playbook runs into a local or remote database
The ara_record and ara_read pair of Ansible modules to record and read persistent data with ARA
A CLI client to query the database
A dynamic, database-driven web interface that can also be generated and served from static files
What does the web interface look like ?
A video preview and explanation of the web interface is available on YouTube, featuring playbook runs from the OpenStack-Ansible project.
Otherwise, screenshots highlighting some of ARA’s features are available in the frequently asked questions
