Introduction

Diabric is a python package containing utilities for use in Fabric fabfiles. These tasks, functions, and classes are useful for:

• working with Amazon EC2
• configuring machines
• installing, configuring, and starting services, servers, and daemons, like
  nginx and supervisord.
• deploying python wsgi web applications.
• uploading and formatting files
• creating python virtualenv virtual environments
• installing packages into virtualenvs
• configuring fabfiles

This package is still very much alpha and exists to reduce code duplication across a number of fabfiles I have for different projects.

Requirements

• Written with Python 2.7
  (http://python.org/download/releases/2.7.3/) in mind.
• Packaged with distutils2 (http://packages.python.org/Distutils2/)
• Fabric (http://docs.fabfile.org/) for creating fabfile tasks, working with
  remote hosts, ...
• Boto (https://github.com/boto/boto) for interacting with EC2.
