What is ansible
Ansible is an open-source automation engine
that automates cloud provisioning,
configuration management, and application
deployment.Once installed on a control node,
Ansible, which is an agentless architecture,
connects to a managed node through the
default OpenSSH connection type.

- python-powered redically simple IT automation tool
- is optimized for easy automation, review, editing, &
auditability
- free, open source
- simply
- clear (anyone)
- fast (to learn, to setup)
- complete (modules)
- efficient (runs on OpenSSH)
- secure (without agents)

- configuration management
- application deployment
- multi-tier orchestration
- cloud provisioning
For what Ansible?

- agentless architecture
- management over SSH (no custom PKI-SSH-based, no
external databases, no daemons, does not leave
software installed)
- developer friendly (configuration as data, not code)
- batteries-included (usefull modules)
- dead simple
- release cycles are usually about two months long

- starting in version 1.7, ansible contains support for
managing windows machines

- playbooks
- plays
- tasks and handlers
- modules
- variables
Ansible concepts

playbooks contains plays
plays contains tasks
tasks contains modules
handels can be triggered by tasks,
and will run at the end, once
Playbooks

a tasks calls a module,
and may have parameters
Tasks

Modules
May 2013 - 72, October 2014 - 175,
February 2015 - 1933 modules on Galaxy

- package management: yum, apt
- remove execution: command, shell
- service management: service
- file handling: copy, template
- scm: git, subversion
Modules examples

- monitoring: monit, nagios, haproxy, etc
- development: jenkins, drush, solr, scala,
maven, etc
- web: Varnish, apache, composer, tomcat,
symfony2, etc
- networking: tor, RabbitMQ, iptables, etc
- cloud: stash-docker, OpenStack, etc
Modules examples #2

- playbooks
- inventory (group vars, host vars)
- command line (ansible-playbook -e
“uservar=vagrant”)
- discovered variables (facts)
Variables

Facts
- discovered variables about systems
- ansible -m setup <hostname>

Variables (example of group-var)

Variables (example of host-vars)

- project organization tool
- reusable components
- defined filesystem structure
- show: parameterized roles
Roles

- failed_when
- changed_when
- until
- ignore_errors
- {{ lookup(‘file’, ‘test.pub’) }}
- etc
Advanced playbook features

App deploy strategies
- basic file transfer (via ftp/scp)
- using Source Control
- using Build Scripts and other Tools

Symfony deployment

Symfony deployment
$ git pull
$ php composer.phar install
$ php app/console doctrine:migration:migrate --no-iteraction
$ php app/console assets:install web --symlink
$ php app/console assets:dump --env=prod
$ php app/console cache:clear

1)Upload your modified code
- name: Pull sources from the repository.
git: repo={{repo}} dest={{dest}} version={{branch}}
when: project_deploy_strategy == “git”
module “synchronize” for rsync
Symfony deployment

2) Update your vendor dependencies (composer)
- name: Install composer
get_url: url=https://getcomposer.org/composer.phar
dest={{project_root}}/composer.phar mode=0755 validate_certs=no
- name: Run composer install
shell: cd {{project_root}}/releases/{{release}} && {{path}}
{{project_root}}/composer.phar install {{project_composer_opts}}
Symfony deployment

3) Running database migrations
- name: Run migrations
shell: cd {{project_root}}/releases/{{release}}
&& if $(grep doctrine-migrations-bundle composer.json);
then {{symfony2_project_php_path}} app/console
doctrine:migrations:migrate -n; fi
Symfony deployment

4) Updated assetic assets
- name: Dump assets
shell: cd {{project_root}}/releases/{{release}} &&
{{symfony2_project_php_path}} app/console
assetic:dump --env={{symfony2_project_env}}
{{symfony2_project_console_opts}}
Symfony deployment

5) Clearing your cache
- name: Clear cache
shell: cd {{project_root}}/releases/{{release}} &&
{{symfony2_project_php_path}} app/console
cache:clear --env={{symfony2_project_env}}
Symfony deployment
