# deploymentutils

This repo contains a small python package to facilitate deployment of some personal projects.

## Overview

This package provides a thin layer on top of [fabric](https://www.fabfile.org/) to execute commands with a state like
- current working directory
- activated virtual environment (not yet implemented)

It also tries to simplify to deploy/maintain multiple instances of the same software but with varying fixtures, including one or more local instances for testing.

## Motivation

The package is mainly intended to facilitate deployment tasks (e.g. for django apps) by running a simple python script.
Compared to configuration management tools like *Ansible* this approach is far less powerful and scalable.
However, it might be easier to understand for developers and thus lowering the hurdle to deploy applications by them selves.

## Status

Still under development and not comprehensively tested.

## Features

- Create `config-example.ini` from an existing `config-production.ini` (which contains additional example values).
- `python -c "import deploymentutils as du; print(du.remove_secrets_from_config('config-production.ini'))"`
- See `test/test_config.ini` and unittests for details.

## Known Issues

- If a command started by `c.run("some_command")` is reading input, then the calling python process waits 'forever', i.e. until interrupted manually.
