Anisble Installation via PIP.

Ansible can be installed via pip, the Python package manager. If pip isn’t already available on your system of Python, run the following commands to install it:

$ curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
$ python get-pip.py --user

Then install Ansible.

$ pip install --user ansible

Or if you are looking for the latest development version:

$ pip install --user git+https://github.com/ansible/ansible.git@devel

If you are installing on macOS Mavericks (10.9), you may encounter some noise from your compiler. A workaround is to do the following:

$ CFLAGS=-Qunused-arguments CPPFLAGS=-Qunused-arguments pip install --user ansible

In order to use the paramiko connection plugin or modules that require paramiko, install the required module.

$ pip install --user paramiko

Ansible can also be installed inside a new or existing virtualenv:

$ python -m virtualenv ansible  # Create a virtualenv if one does not already exist
$ source ansible/bin/activate   # Activate the virtual environment
$ pip install ansible

If you wish to install Ansible globally, run the following commands:

$ sudo python get-pip.py
$ sudo pip install ansible
