The problem is blocking-IO + GIL. The paramiko channels must be set to non-blocking mode, then execute (start) the remote command and collect the output from all hosts with select() or polling. Trouble is that you need to do a bit of refactoring to _on_hosts_do() and the whole strategies setup. And this will also affect the commands that need to do IO on paramiko channels. So the current design of those internals is actually broken, with regards to implementing something like fanout mode.

If you're thinking of prototypes/ctr-c.py, then that was an attempt at building a super-duper-awesome (like > (sum cap dsh clusterssh)) replacement for `fab shell` but it grew too complex and fragile, and that's where I left it.

Yes, it would be really nice to finally get this to work. It's probably the most prominent non-existing feature in fabric. :) On Mon, Oct 20, 2008 at 3:57 PM, Sylvain BLOT <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > An other think is that I will need a Web Gui for my fabric scripts, do you > have any development recommendations (webservice, os.run()...) ? I have never tried to do something like that. -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards, Christian Vest Hansen. _______________________________________________ Fab-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fab-user
