I used Ansible in the past for the exact same purpose and it has one major flaw: Ansible is imperative. What I mean is: if I add a line in a config file and want to rollback then I have to manually handle revert (create playbooks with `delete` flag etc.) With Nix you get this for free. Also, with Nix you can trivially create image for your configuration (even with slightly different options, e.g. only enable ssh on 0.0.0.0 for a fresh install, but disable it after first config apply) which I find useful when working with a cloud. |
