[PYTHON] fabric Writing Tips

I want to run locally

fabfile.py

from fabric.api import local
def test:
  local("ls")

Command line

$ fab test

I want to ssh to a remote server somewhere

fabfile.py

from fabric.api import run
def test:
  run("ls")

Command line

$ fab -i ${key} -u ${user} -H ${host} test

I want to pass an environment variable from the execution command and execute it

fabfile.py

from fabric.api import local
def test(value="hello"):
  local('echo %s' % value)

Command line

$ fab test
# hello

$ fab test:value=ok
# ok

I want to execute it in the cd state

fabfile.py

from fabric.api import cd, lcd, run
def test(value="hello"):
  #For local
  with lcd("/var/tmp/"):
    local("pwd")

  #For remote
  with cd("/var/www/"):
    run("pwd")

Command line

$ fab -i ${key} -u ${user} -H ${host} test
# /var/tmp/
# /var/www/

I want to transfer files

fabfile.py

from fabric.api import cd, put, run
def test():
  #SFTP transfer
  put("~/local.txt", "/tmp/remote.txt")

  #Verification
  with cd("/tmp"):
    run("ls")

Command line

$ fab -i ${key} -u ${user} -H ${host} test
# remote.txt

I want to put it to sleep in the middle of processing

fabfile.py

import time
from fabric.api import local
def test():
  #Process 1
  local('echo A')

  #Wait 30 seconds
  time.sleep(30)

  #Process 2
  local('echo B')

I want to execute in parallel

Pattern 1 (add @parallel to the code)

fabfile.py

from fabric.api import parallel

@parallel
def test():
  #processing

Command line

$ fab -H "host1,host2,host3" test

Pattern 2 (execute with -P option)

Command line

$ fab -P -H "host1,host2,host3" test
