ARA - Ansible run analysis
Project description
ARA: Ansible Run Analysis
tl;dr
ARA is an attempt to make Ansible runs easier to visualize, understand and troubleshoot.
ARA is three things:
An Ansible callback plugin to record playbook runs into a local or remote database
A CLI client to query the database
A web interface to visualize the database
Overview
ARA organizes recorded playbook data in a way to make it intuitive for you to search and find what you’re interested for as fast and as easily as possible.
It provides summaries of task results per host or per playbook.
It allows you to filter task results by playbook, play, host, task or by the status of the task.
With ARA, you’re able to easily drill down from the summary view for the results you’re interested in, whether it’s a particular host or a specific task.
Beyond browsing a single ansible-playbook run, ARA supports recording and viewing multiple runs in the same database.
This allows you to, for example, recognize patterns (ex: this particular host is always failing this particular task) since you have access to data from multiple runs.
