I am Lazy!
I need one command to deploy codes.
>fab deploy
That’s what I was talking about
Varun Batra @ Deft Infotech Pvt. Ltd.
What if something goes wrong?
>fab deploy
This command should handle that as well and report me.

Common Principle of CI
• Code Repository (I use GIT)
• Fast & Auto Build
• Self Testing
• ‘Test Environment’ is not ‘Build Environment’
• Auto Deployment: merge to master/deploy branch (GIT), this should auto deploy it
• Self Sustainable System, e.g. if db is destroyed, it should automatically recreated by latest backup
Varun Batra @ Deft Infotech Pvt. Ltd.
My Deployment Principle
• Based on my experience
• Based on guys’s ‘better than me’ experience
• Let me know if you can improve because you can

Few seconds installation

GIT
>git branch something_cool
>git checkout something_cool
>git commit -a -m ‘what I did?’
>git checkout master
>git merge something_cool
>git push
git checkout -b something_cool combines first two commands

Fabric: library + command-line tool
Fabric is a Python (2.5 or higher) library and command-line tool for streamlining the use of SSH for application deployment or systems administration tasks.
I copied from their website, I am lazy

There is a catch
each run or sudo call has its own distinct shell session.
run('cd foo' && 'mkdir bar')is notrun('cd foo')run('mkdir bar')
iswith('cd foo')
run('mkdir bar')

How discussed deployment process should be?

Processing Output
Output of ‘run’ command is stored in ‘url’ variable

Deploy with options?
• Passing parameters?• fab deploy:env=production
• fab deploy:production (in order of params)
• !Passing True is string i.e. ‘True’ not True
• Deploy to many hosts?• env.hosts = ['user@example1.com', ' user@example2.com ']
• fab –H user@example1.com, user@example2.com deploy
• Show fewer output?• with hide('output','running'), settings(warn_only=True):
