Is ShipIt an Ansible replacement? The idea of Ansible is good, but I would like a JavaScript based tool and avoid Ruby. Edit: i meant Python

- mateuszf 12y agoAnsible is written in Python.
- treehau5 12y agowhat about ruby makes you want to avoid it? strictly curious
- frik 12y agoSorry, I meant Python. I am familar with Algol syntax based languages and prefer C/C++/ObjectC/C#/Java/PHP/JS/Go/Rust/Lua/Basic/Pascal/Ada/Smalltalk/Scheme over Python/Ruby/Haskel.
- dragonwriter 12y agoWhat does Algol syntax have to do with that? Several of the first set of languages you list are not Algol-based, while two of the last three are Algol-syntax-based.
- pyre 12y agoYou can do most of your Ansible work without needing to touch Python. I'm a Python programmer, and I've never needed to touch Python (other than running Ansible, which is a Python program) with respect to an Ansible setup.
- neoziro 12y agoShipit can be an Ansible replacement, but there is no command abstraction to Shipit. Shipit is designed to quickly deploy a project on a set of servers not to configure an entire server.
