I think what Carlton is looking for is a little different, though I do like
your method. I think I have the same needs as Carlton. Likewise, I'm running
a Django project with multiple servers acting in different roles. Fabric's
roles are great to handle that. So I currently have something like this:
def production():
env.roledefs['httpd'] = 'mywebserver.example.com'
env.roledefs['db'] = 'mydbserver.example.com'
env.roledefs['otherservices'] = 'otherservices.example.com'
@roles(['httpd'])
def update_django_project():
run('my_update_routine...')
@roles(['db'])
def update_db():
run('my_db_actions...')
@roles(['otherservices'])
def update_services():
run('my_services_stuff...')
Right now, I have to run these sequentially from the command prompt, since the
decorators don't seem to work within another method.
$ fab production update_django_project
$ fab production update_db
$ fab production update_services
What I'd love, and I suspect Carlton would as well, is the ability to wrap all
those up in a single function
def deploy():
update_django_project()
update_db()
update_services()
And thus be able to deploy with one line
$ fab production deploy
