Using Ansible Command Line

Ansible can be used to manage local systems through various methods. You can run playbooks locally using the command line with ansible-playbook –connection=local 127.0.0.1 playbook.yml, configure local execution in inventory files or the Ansible configuration file, or set it directly within playbook headers. This flexibility allows for seamless local automation tailored to different needs and preferences.
