Ansible is a radically simple IT automation system. It handles configuration-management, application deployment, cloud provisioning, ad-hoc task-execution, and multinode orchestration - including trivializing things like zero downtime rolling updates with load balancers.
And this is extremely simple web-admin panel for it designed for launching playbooks from browser. As example it configured for setup BOSH/Cloud Foundry/Redis and dummy playbooks. With small enhancements you can change that according to your needs but there are no reasons to do that because of a lot different free products for Ansible. Feel free to post suggestions/bugs.

This panel is written on:
- Bootstrap 3
- Python 3
- Flask Framework
- SQLAlchemy
- WTForms
- SQLite
Clone code:
# git clone git@github.com:ipeacocks/ansibletasker.git
Simply create virtualenv:
# cd ansibletasker
# virtualenv --no-site-packages env
Make sure that virtualenv created env with python3.
Ansible needs id_rsa private key for authorization to remote host, so copy it to ansible dir:
# cp ~/.ssh/id_rsa ansible
Activate virtual env:
# source env/bin/activate
That's almost it. Use requirments.txt to setup all python dependencies:
# pip install -r project/requirements.txt
Create sqlite db:
# python project/db_create.py
And finally launch:
# python project/run.py
Then you can login using link http://localhost:5000 and admin:admin creds.
Pull image from Docker Hub:
# docker pull ipeacocks/ansibletasker
And simply run it:
# docker run -d -p 5000:5000 ipeacocks/ansibletasker
Thats all, only copying private key remains:
# docker cp ~/.ssh/id_rsa container_id:/app/ansible
That's it. Login using link http://localhost:5000 and admin:admin creds.
