semaphore

Open Source Alternative to Ansible Tower

Features

The basics of Ansible Tower, but in addition:

  • Fast, Simple interface that doesnt get in the way
  • Task output is streamed live via websocket
  • Free. MIT Licensed. Do what you want.

How to run:

  1. Install Vagrant
  2. Run vagrant up
  3. Open localhost:3000

Development steps:

Install requirements:

  • node.js >= 0.11.x
  • an isolated environment (e.g. Docker / NodeGear)
  • ansible (the tool)
  • mongodb & redis
  • Sudo access (this might change). To run jobs, this tool writes private keys to /root/.ssh and copies playbook directories to /root/.
  1. Copy lib/credentials.default.json to lib/credentials.json and customise, or export relevant environment variables
  2. bower install
  3. node bin/semaphore

Note to Ansible guys

Thanks very much for making Ansible, and Ansible Tower. It is a great tool!. Your UI is pretty horrible though, and so we'd be happy if you could learn and use parts of this tool in your Tower.

It would be amazing if this could be your Community Edition of Ansible Tower.
