Hi,
I was wondering if there is a way to group tasks and then refer to the
group by one name. I don't want to start but sort of what namespaces in
Capistrano could be used for.
What I'm trying to do is to deploy to several machines which are domain
specific. I have a database machine, a web server with the application
code, a machine which runs daemons, and a machine for command queuing.
Of course, each machine has specific needs and it would be more fitting
if I defined different fabric tasks for each of them, like:
def deploy_db():
#migrate the db schema
def deploy_app():
#restart web server
def deploy_daemons():
#restart all app daemons
def deploy_queue():
#restart the queuing manager
Now, what I have to do is
fab deploy_db deploy_app deploy_daemons deploy_queue
What I had rather do is
fab deploy
This would call those four tasks from above.
The reason for that is the deployment plan - the order in which the
deployment tasks are run - hardly ever changes but the order of the
tasks is essential. Sometimes I need to restart some services on other
machines and so this deployment plan changes.
Is there a way?
Thanks
Jiri
