Fabric: A lightweight deployment tool for Rubyists and Pythonists alike

3. but...

4. Too many features for small, simple projects

5. If you're using a DSL, the implementation language isn't so important

6. If you know Ruby, you already know enough Python for a simple fabric script!

8. Makes assumptions about your version control system

9. Release directory structure

10. The way your server restarts

11. In typical Ruby fashion, there's lots of ”magic”

13. Command-line interface for calling Python methods

14. Example $ fab free_space

16. test our code

17. deploy it to our server in the /mnt directory

18. restart the web server

26. Your new Deploy Script

30. Use any release directory structure you want

31. Someone knowing nothing about deployment tools can look at your script and understand exactly what's going on
