a simple ansible script to pull updates from git{hub/lab}

cloudpap — Tue, 26 Sep 2023 08:38:05 +0000

I needed to pull some updates from a script saved in gitlab and deploy it on 36 servers! Well, ansible came to my rescue and below, is the simple script i created to help me with the task.

The script pulls updates from a private repo in gitlab. It will prompt the user for gitlab credentials once then proceed to deploy.

Hope it helps someone!

  - name: "githubpassword" 
    prompt: "Enter your github password" 
    private: yes

  tasks:
  - name: Pull updates from gitlab
    git: 
      repo: "https://{{ githubuser | urlencode }}:{{ githubpassword | urlencode }}@gitlab.com/gitlabuser/scripts.git"

Script that allows me to run a site that functions like a letter writing wizard

Does anyone have any suggestions for a script that would allow me to set up a letter writing wizard for the general public to use?
For example:
1) The member of the public receives a speeding ticket.
2) They come to the page and enter information in textboxes about what the ticket says and their personal information
3) They answer some checkbox questions about the circumstances it was issued.
4) The wizard then creates a letter customised with their personal information and some stock arguments based on the checkboxes selected.

I'm not creating a speeding ticket avoiders site, but it's an analogy that everyone would be familiar with!
