Django Deployment Simple remote deploy fabfile.py
Example
Fabric is a Python (2.5-2.7) library and command-line tool for streamlining the use of SSH for application deployment or systems administration tasks. It lets you execute arbitrary Python functions via the command line.
Install fabric via pip install fabric
Create fabfile.py in your root directory:
#myproject/fabfile.py
from fabric.api import *
@task
def dev():
# details of development server
env.user = # your ssh user
env.password = #your ssh password
env.hosts = # your ssh hosts (list instance, with comma-separated hosts)
env.key_filename = # pass to ssh key for github in your local keyfile
@task
def release():
# details of release server
env.user = # your ssh user
env.password = #your ssh password
env.hosts = # your ssh hosts (list instance, with comma-separated hosts)
env.key_filename = # pass to ssh key for github in your local keyfile
@task
def run():
with cd('path/to/your_project/'):
with prefix('source ../env/bin/activate'):
# activate venv, suppose it appear in one level higher
# pass commands one by one
run('git pull')
run('pip install -r requirements.txt')
run('python manage.py migrate --noinput')
run('python manage.py collectstatic --noinput')
run('touch reload.txt')
To execute the file, simply use the fab command:
$ fab dev run # for release server, `fab release run`
Note: you can not configure ssh keys for github and just type login and password manually, while fabfile runs, the same with keys.
