Ansible, the radically simple IT automation engine is not stranger to pulp, the juicy software repository management tool.
In addition to its ansible based installer and its plugin for ansible content, we present the third way for pulp to interact with ansible:
'Ansible Modules for Pulp', alias Squeezer, is a collection of ansible modules to leverage the feature rich REST-API of pulp in a convenient way.
To this end we show, how repeated repository workflows can be mapped to ansible tasks.
We also discuss the possiblility to enrich bug reports with reproducers in form of playbook snippets.
