What is Sultan?
Sultan is a Python package for interfacing with command-line utilities, like
yum, apt-get, or ls, in a Pythonic manner. It lets you run command-line
utilities using simple function calls.
The simplest way to use Sultan is to just call it:
from sultan.api import Sultan
s = Sultan()
s.sudo("yum install -y tree").run()
Runs:
sudo yum install -y tree;

The recommended way of using Sultan is to use it in Context Management mode.
Here is how to use Sultan with Context Management:
from sultan.api import Sultan

with Sultan.load(sudo=True) as s:
s.yum("install -y tree").run()
Runs:
sudo su - root -c 'yum install -y tree;'

What if we want to install this command on a remote machine? You can easily
achieve this using context management:
from sultan.api import Sultan

with Sultan.load(sudo=True, hostname="myserver.com") as sultan:
sultan.yum("install -y tree").run()
Runs:
ssh [email protected] 'sudo su - root -c 'yum install -y tree;''

If you enter a wrong command, Sultan will print out details you need to debug and
find the problem quickly.
Here, the same command was run on a Mac:
from sultan.api import Sultan

with Sultan.load(sudo=True, hostname="myserver.com") as sultan:
sultan.yum("install -y tree").run()
Yields:
[sultan]: sudo su - root -c 'yum install -y tree;'
