Ansistrano is an Ansible Galaxy role to easily deploy and roll back your scripting applications written in PHP, Python, NodeJS, or Ruby. Ansible is a powerful open-source tool for configuring and provisioning servers. Ansistrano leverages all its power to deploy applications. Ansistrano uses a folder structure in your servers that simplify rollbacking: a soft link change, an application reload, and done! We support deploying by pulling your code from CVS (Git, Mercurial, or Subversion), downloading from the repository (S3, or ZIP file), or pushing (Copying or Rsyncing). Ansistrano offers a deployment flow with hooks. Attach any specific tasks before or after every step to tune your workflow (restarting servers, cleaning caches, etc.). Capistrano is a remote server automation tool and it's currently in Version 3. Version 2.0 was originally thought in order to deploy RoR applications. With additional plugins, you were able to deploy non Rails applications such as PHP and Python.
