The Tidelift Subscription
manages your dependencies, including Invoke , for you.
How do we do it?

subscription-icon-1
We provide the tools you need to continuously catalog and understand the open source software that your application depends on.
subscription-icon-2
We partner with and pay the open source community maintainers of the exact packages you use, to ensure they meet the standards you require.
subscription-icon-3
We address issues proactively, not only scanning for new security, licensing, and maintenance issues, but also working with our participating open source maintainers to resolve them on your behalf.
subscription-icon-4
We help you measure and improve your open source dependencies' health—which improves your app’s health—and give you a short list of high-impact steps your team can take to improve them even more.
subscription-icon-5
We add commercial assurances that don't come for free with open source packages, like intellectual property indemnification and support under a service level agreement. You expect these guarantees from proprietary software, and you should get them when using open source as well.

The end result? All of the capabilities you expect from commercial-grade software, for the full breadth of open source you use. That means less time grappling with esoteric open source trivia, and more time building your own applications—and your business.

About Invoke 

Invoke is Python task execution library. It draws inspiration from various sources to arrive at a powerful & 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.

By paying the maintainers for their work, you help ensure they’ll have the time and motivation to keep their creations well maintained. And you just may make the world a little bit nicer place, too.
