I’ll second what Ray said: Pallet has some great concepts and it’s very powerful, but the model is a big shift from how most DevOps tools work and it can be very hard to develop your own crates etc. We tried to go down that path several years ago and even with assistance from the Pallet team we did not get very far.
I don’t think there are any actively maintained alternatives in Clojure so Ansible / Chef / Puppet is going to be your best bet I think.

There are some awesome ideas in there, but I found that in practice it was slow to develop with and much less flexible than it promised. In the end I switched to ansible and achieved more in 1 day than I had in a week's effort with pallet. I think the main problem is the small user base. The more mainstream solutions in this space have better documentation and are better tested in the wild. There's a much better chance you'll find someone else has already done the thing you're trying to do, so you will either find a module to do the work or an example to help you along. Ray.

Are there any alternatives that would work well with Clojure paradigm? Or are my options only to either go with chef/puppet or to fork pallet? I am also interested to hear what works for people and what not so much. Thanks! Miro -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
