Hi Kaushal, I’m not aware of any tool that does exactly what you ask for, but in our team we have set up a few parametrized jobs in Jenkins that check out Fabric code and execute some of those tasks for us. It’s far from being ideal, but it gives use a few benefits, including - possibility to add ACLs and decide who can run what - execution of tasks from a production server close to the affected hosts (instead of from an operator workstation) - possibility to easily run them from a smartphone + VPN connection - availability of logs (with colors! :D) for later inspection The only tricky part is to set up the ‘Jenkins jobs’ parameters and translate them in Fabric host/roles list and tasks/parameters; again, far from ideal, but of the dozens of tasks we have, only a small subset requires any GUI-interface, so we’re ok with that so far.
