Ansible Semaphore is beautiful web interface for running Ansible playbooks. If your project has grown and deploying from the terminal is no longer for you then Ansible Semaphore is what you need.
Semaphore doesn't use system installed git and ansible, it works in Strict mode (https://snapcraft.io/docs/snap-confinement). Semaphore has access to /root/snap/sempahore and /tmp directories only.
After installation semaphore will be available by http://localhost:3000.
After installation you should add new user by command:
sudo snap stop semaphore
sudo semaphore user add --admin --name "Your Name" --login your_login --email your-email@examaple.com --password your_password
sudo snap start semaphore
You can use Snap Configuration (https://snapcraft.io/docs/configuration-in-snaps) to setup semaphore. For example, to change semaphore port to 4444 use command:
sudo snap set semaphore port=4444
sudo snap restart semaphore

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
If you’re running Kubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) or later, including Kubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) and Kubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.
Versions of Kubuntu between 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr) and 15.10 (Wily Werewolf) don’t include snap by default, but snap can be installed from the command line as follows:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
To install Ansible Semaphore, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install semaphore
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
