Fabric is a pypi component included in the Tidelift Subscription

Tidelift is working with the maintainers of Fabric and a growing network of open source maintainers to ensure your open source software supply chain meets enterprise standards now and into the future.



With a comprehensive open source management solution like the Tidelift Subscription, organizations can efficiently manage the ways development teams use thousands of open source components across JavaScript, Java, Python, Swift, and Golang. (Beta-compatible with Rust, C#, Ruby, and PHP.) Improve the health, security, and resilience of the open source used in their applications with catalogs of known-good, proactively maintained open source components—backed by maintainers.

About Fabric

Fabric is a high level Python (2.7, 3.4+) library designed to execute shell commands remotely over SSH, yielding useful Python objects in return.

It builds on top of Invoke (subprocess command execution and command-line features) and Paramiko (SSH protocol implementation), extending their APIs to complement one another and provide additional functionality.

Core use cases for Fabric include (but are not limited to):

  • Single commands on individual hosts
  • Single commands across multiple hosts (via varying methodologies: serial, parallel, etc).
  • Python code blocks (functions/methods) targeted at individual connections.

Fabric is available via the PyPI package manager.

 

 

"I believe Tidelift's model has a lot of promise. I signed up because I want to help them prove the system works and to give feedback from the perspective of a multi-package maintainer."

- Jeff Forcier, Fabric maintainer
