Hi there !
I’m the author of a project called ARA: Ansible Run Analysis.
I’m here to tell you about an awesome new version of ARA that was just released and I’ve highlighted the best parts in a blog post:
https://dmsimard.com/2017/05/05/ara-ansible-run-analysis-0-13-is-out-and-its-awesome/
If you’ve never heard of ARA before, here’s a quick excerpt from the blog post:
ARA is an Ansible callback plugin that records your playbook runs, wherever it is.
Whether you’re running Ansible from your personal laptop or from a server, you basically just need to install ARA, configure Ansible to use ARA and you’re good to go.
ARA organizes the data in a way to help you visualize, understand and troubleshoot what happened throughout your playbook.
So, what does it look like ?
Here’s a video demo of the interface where I explain the different features it offers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3i8VPCanGo
There is comprehensive documentation on what the project is and isn’t in the form of Frequently Asked Questions as well as a project manifesto.
I wanted to take the opportunity to celebrate this new release to invite you to AMA (Ask me anything) on Reddit over in the /r/Ansible community.
You can find the AMA here.
Let me know if you have any questions !
