Ansible isn't declarative though. You write procedural code (what to do in what order) in YAML/JSON that may call declarative tasks. But those tasks can also be imperative, so calling Ansible itself declarative is fundamentally misleading. Actual declarative would be writing an unordered specification of what a completed server looks like. An example would be Hashicorp Terraform.

@zarzache1 Жыл бұрын

Also indepotent but not that much, depending on which module is being used 😊

@kanadaj3275 Жыл бұрын

@@zarzache1 Actual declarative code tends to naturally drift towards idempotency since you describe the desired outcome, and so the machine has to check what has to be done to reach that outcome.

@gro967 Жыл бұрын

For example PowerShell Desired State Configuration is idempotent even with custom code, because it required you to implement get, set, update and delete state scripts, which it then uses. Ansible doesn’t require this so is not inherently idempotent.

Terraform seems amazing, I hope it gets covered here at some point :-)

@PenguinCinema Жыл бұрын

When using modules that are not idempotent, the documentation warns you more or less that you are not using the tool properly. If the problem can't be solved with an idempotent module, you are encouraged to work around that even when using imperative steps (e.g. wrap checks around "command" module invocations to not run commands unless they need to be run).

Not just linux, we also use Ansible for automating windows server using winrm. A lot of functionality is missing in base Angular and a lot of modules are outdated and break everytime there's a new version of python. So, DevOps guys like me usually use bash and powershell scripts to create custom functionalities which are more trustworthy in the long run. So, many times ansible just becomes a way to run remote shells in the cloud virtual machines. We also use it to automate PAAS features in different cloud resources using their respective cli with bash. For example using azure, aws and gcp CLI.

@LeeorVardi Жыл бұрын

Terraform is not Cloud agnostic, instead it's a syntax that supports many "providers", usually written by the Cloud Platform holders themselves due to Terraform's popularity and prevalence, and each of these providers is extremely specific to the services, entities and structure of the cloud it is meant to automate. Essentially, this means that every Terraform file reads like an inventory list for how to build a specific configuration of entities, and each entity is incredibly provider-specific, both in name and nature and attributes, and you have to understand these entities to build a module. think of it like this. if your terraform is building a chair, then it would contain beams, nails, and the cushion - and they would utilize each others outputs.

@cheaterman49 Жыл бұрын

@@LeeorVardi Thanks for your answer! So in essence you reckon unless someone creates a layer of entities that abstract away the provider-specific bits, the provider-agnostic promise is very much a dream? Or rather, it's more like you can use X or Y but not really switch from one to the other easily?

my 2 cents, ansible is "devops as code", the yaml can live on git repo, the control node is anything that has ssh to the servers you are managing, it can a dedicated control node or your laptop or both. practice ansible using ad-hoc. Idempotent means it won't screwup if you run it twice or from arbitrary starting state. After you master ad-hoc, write playbooks then write reusable rules. ansible unlike puppet and chef can orchestrate, delegate ex. go to load balancer get list of all servers, got to each server report git branch all in parallel, go back to the load balancer and iterate on all web servers one by one, remove them from LB update them then add them back to LB.

Haven't touched ansible in years and the introduction of collections has gone way over my head, wish there was a better "best practices" guide for the folder structure and what not like before the introduction of collections. I know Jeff Geerling has a blogpost about some confusion with it but maybe it has been solved nowadays. Still great software. Saltstack is great too but I prefer the agentless nature of ansible and puppet's bolt seems like a nice newer contender in that space but it's still too early to really adopt it imho.

Collections is just a way to scale Ansible roles and playbooks in an organised fashion so Red Hat doesn’t have to maintain everything themselves, and vendors can package their own stuff together and be responsible for releasing it themselves. It’s just a folder structure.
