Same here, except I've set things up so that any changes I make to my project are automatically synced instantly to a live staging domain, and I don't have a revert command (although I do back up copies of previous deployments). I also keep apt and pypi dependencies in project-local config files and have a refresh command that updates those packages on both the remote and local machine along with some other stuff. I think I might have overengineered things a little.

would any of you share these files and your setup? I'd love to have a look into them.

Thanks!

thanks a lot!

Sure. I doubt you'll get much out of it, but I'm still quite curious what your impression will be.

If it helps, "li" is my current project's code name.

The vast majority of the code is concerned with configuring a fresh Linode, not pushing recent changes (for that, see the rf and stage functions, and the functions they call). I hate system administration. The only way I could make myself configure my server was by writing a script to configure it for me.

thanks!

My fabric setup is basically:

* push to <server>

* update the files

* compile sass to css

* minify javascript

* process the dependencies file (using pip) for updates (it does nothing if I haven't added new dependencies)

* restart/flush/whatever I specify

It works beautifully, I can deploy changes in a few seconds.

EDIT: Okay how do I make lists :(
