batou 2.4.1

Description:

batou 2.4.1

batou helps you to automate your application deployments:

You create a model of your deployment using a simple but powerful Python API.
You configure how the model applies to hosts in different environments.
You verify and run the deployment with the batou utility.

Getting started with a new project is easy:
mkdir myproject
cd myproject
git init
curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flyingcircusio/batou/main/bootstrap | sh
git commit -m "Start a batou project."

Here's a minimal application model:
$ mkdir -p components/myapp
$ cat > components/myapp/component.py
from batou.component import Component
from batou.lib.python import VirtualEnv, Package
from batou.lib.supervisor import Program

class MyApp(Component):

def configure(self):
venv = VirtualEnv('2.7')
self += venv
venv += Package('myapp')
self += Program('myapp',
command='bin/myapp')

And here's a minimal environment:
$ mkdir environments
$ cat > environments/dev/environment.cfg
[environment]
connect_method = local

[hosts]
localhost = myapp

To deploy this, you run:
$ ./batou deploy dev
