Invoke is a pypi library included in the Tidelift Subscription

Tidelift is working with the maintainers of Invoke and thousands of other projects to deliver commercial support and maintenance for the open source dependencies you use to build your applications.

Invoke is a part of the Tidelift Subscription

About Invoke

Invoke is Python task execution library. It draws inspiration from various sources to arrive at a powerful and clean feature set. Like Ruby's Rake tool and Invoke's own predecessor Fabric 1.x, it provides a clean, high level API for running shell commands and defining/organizing task functions from a tasks.py file.

Where Fabric 1.x considered the command-line approach the default mode of use, Invoke (and tools built on it) are equally at home embedded in your own Python code or a REPL.

Invoke 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."
