Jeff + World,
Commands in a fabfile that are annotated with the @hosts() decorator
don't compose or nest terribly well. That is, we only take the
outer-most decorator into consideration.
Example:
@hosts('localhost')
def test_nested_remotes_part_2():
"used by test_nested_remotes"
run("echo 2-5 $(fab_host)")
# this won't connect to 127.0.0.1 when called by test_nested_remotes()!
@hosts('localhost', '127.0.0.1')
def test_nested_remotes_part_4():
"used by test_nested_remotes"
run("echo 4-5 $(fab_host)")
@hosts('localhost')
def test_nested_remotes():
"Tests nesting of commands that require connections."
run("echo 1-5")
test_nested_remotes_part_2()
run("echo 3-5")
test_nested_remotes_part_4()
run("echo 5-5 and done.")
Ideally, we would detect that part_4 needs to connect and then
disconnect 127.0.0.1, but I don't see a way to do that while having
the `hosts` decorator returning the input function.
Niklas has created his decorators with the assistance of a
_new_call_chain_decorator function, which I think is useful here. But
I'm a little tired right now and not yet that familiar with the code
to really say for sure (but I am inching closer and closer to merging
his branch).
